The bill would provide for liability for transfers of oil between a vessel and a facility. The bill would hold the responsible party for the vessel and for the onshore facility liable for the removal costs and damages for any discharge or substantial threat of discharge of oil upon navigable waters or the adjoining shorelines. The damage refers to damage to natural resources, real or personal property, loss of subsistence use of natural resources, loss of revenues due to damage to real or personal property, and losses of profits or earning capacity. There would be no liability to the responsible parties if it is established that the incident resulted from an act of God, act of war, or act of persons other than the responsible party, an employee or agent of the responsible party, or a person in contractual relationship with the responsible party.
