Rail-to-barge via Portland/Vancouver area
Capacity will be ~200 million bbls/yr,
some of which will be shipped to California via barge
Total projected crude-by-rail deliveries to California by 2016
100 to 200 million bbls/yr
(Note: 150 million bbls/yr = 25% of Calif’s crude oil supply)

CA Senate Bill 861 Overview
(a.k.a. the “statewide program”)
• Extends the current 6.5 cent fee to inland and
imported crude oil entering CA refineries
• Creates a single statewide program to cover spills of oil
or oil products from all sources in marine and inland
waters
• Applies industry contingency plan, drill, and financial
responsibility requirements statewide
• Stabilizes funding for OWCN and expand the OWCN to
inland areas
• Makes OSPR’s spill response trust fund accessible for
responses to all oil spills.
• Removes 42 gallon threshold for spill response

OSPR Implementation Teams
• Hire new positions
• Regulations/Contingency plans/Drills
• Outreach/Communication/Agency
Coordination
• Training
• Geographic response plans
• Wildlife operations
• Field Response Teams (interim and long
term)
• Spill Communication and Data Unit

Key Benefits:
• Fewer oil spills from all sources
• Improved spill response
• Coordinated incident command with agencies and indus
• Improved efficiency and effectiveness of response
• Oil Spill Response Organization (OSRO) oversight
• Reduced impacts, damages, and liabilities
• Improved public and environmental safety
• Improved public confidence
