OSTI ID:5585468
The House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries suggests several amendments to H.R. 3278, a bill establishing liability and compensation for damage due to oil spills and the costs of removal. The legislation specifies swift compensation for victims by the government and strict liability for those causing damage. Taxpayers will benefit from an industry-financed fund that will reimburse the government. The report describes the legal and the regulatory framework and areas in which the bill eliminates some provisions in the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act. (DCK)
