Report a spill:

Ask Sheriff's dispatcher to page IOSA.
Be sure to provide a way for IOSA personnel to contact you, such as phone number, street address, or email address.
Train to become a responder:
IOSA provides free training for people interested in becoming an oil spill responder. You can train to become a containment responder or an oiled wildlife search & rescue responder, or both. Please call our office at 360-378-5322 for more information.
Provide shoreline access points:
Shoreline residents with shore access points for personnel or equipment or who may have viewpoints for spill/response assessment can greatly facilitate our spill response effectiveness. Please contact IOSA so we can add your information to our ALV Network (Access, Launch and Viewpoint). This information is kept for spill response only.
