Please join NCA and Randall Austin from the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation for an engaging and informative workshop on oil spills. Mr. Austin heads the DEC’s Spill Response Program that actively investigates and brings enforcement to petroleum and chemical spills cases in NY Harbor. The workshop will begin promptly at 6:30 and we strongly encourage participants to attend the full presentation. Whether you are an active user of the waterway or enjoy it from the shore is it very important for community members to be able to recognize various pollution types and properly report spills or unusual occurrences when they occur.

This event will be held at the DEC office in Long Island City:
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
47-40 21 Street
Room 441
Long Island City, New York 11101

June 29th, 6:30 pm
