On March 23, 1989 the Exxon Valdez an oil supertanker operated by Exxon left the port of Valdez headed for Long beach, CA with almost 54 million gallons of crude oil on board. Shortly after midnight on March 24, 1989, the supertanker collided with Bligh Reef, a well known navigation hazard, ruptured 8 of its 11 cargo tanks and spilled 11 million gallons of crude oil into the pristine waters of Prince William Sound. The result was catastrophic. Although the spill was radioed in shortly after the collision Exxons response was slow. In fact, there was no recovery effort for three days while Exxon searched for clean up equipment. During that time millions of gallons of oil began to spread down the coast. Days later as the clean up effort began the oil slick was no longer containable. It eventually extended 470 miles to the southwest, contaminated hundreds of miles of coastline.

October 1993 - Alaska's Prince William Sound is a uniquely beautiful Place. But the lives of the people of this remote USA state were changed forever when the Exxon Valdez ran aground, spilling millions of litres of oil. The fragile ecosystem of the Sound was destroyed by the resultant oil slick and the local fishing community in the town of Cordova has been locked in battle with Exxon ever since. Exxon told the world that it was doing all it could to clear up the mess but locals say that was a lie. Salmon have failed to return and fishermen have found themselves going slowly bankrupt. When the spill first occurred Exxon threw money at the problem. Now they are throwing money at their lawyers to contest claims for compensation. ABC Australia

Watch full film here: vod.journeyman.tv 30 June 2008 Exxon Valdez leaked more than 40 million litres of crude oil into Alaska's pristine waterways nineteen years ago. Today, oil is still polluting the shores and bankrupted fishermen are still waiting for the $5 billion payout granted in 1994. After a series of appeals by the company, $5 billion became $2.5. Now that the case has reached the increasingly pro-business US Supreme Court, fishermen fear they could end up with nothing. While ExxonMobil claims the area has returned to robust health, locals tell of vastly depleted fish stocks, which almost disappeared after the spill. ExxonMobil claims the fish fell victim to a virus, a theory disputed by the fishermen, who are backed by scientific evidence: 'The fish can't disappear like they're telling the public. [Exxon's] explanation just isn't practical,' says an expert. As the legal case drags on, a fifth of the plaintiffs have died and the rest have lost hope. For them, Exxon has already won no matter what. Yet the oil giant keeps repeating that the spill was a tragic accident and that the company has acted responsibly towards the local communities. Fishermen whose livelihoods were wrecked feel cheated: 'Exxon says that everything's coming back and everything's fine-- it's a lie.' Produced by ABC Australia Distributed by Journeyman Pictures

Nyac one of the two famous otter-holding-hands YouTube stars and long-time resident of the Vancouver Aquarium died on September 23, 2008. She was one of the last surviving sea otters from the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill. Nyac came to the Vancouver Aquarium in 1989 as one of the few young survivors of the oil spill. She not only survived the traumatic event, but she overcame incredible odds and became the only known survivor to have successfully had a pup. On November 9, 1993, Nyac gave birth to a healthy female pup, Kipnuk. This event was considered miraculous due to the internal damage she had sustained. During her 20 years of life, she won the hearts of members, visitors, volunteers and staff at the Vancouver Aquarium. She inspired many people as they learned about sea otters and the issues that face them in our waters today. She was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia a few days before her death. This cancer has not been previously reported in sea otters, but it is associated with contact with petroleum in other species. So even in death, Nyac will continue to provide vital information on the long-term effects of oil exposure.

Warning: upsetting images in this clip!! One of the most dramatic environmental disasters in history of mankind was the oil spill of the exxon valdez back in 1989. More than 250,00 animals were killed. Dance 2 trance composed a music piece in remembrance of the animals killed and as a warning not to forget the importance of the environment. From their 1992 cd "Moon spirits". Dance 2 trance are considered as one of the first trance acts ever. Rolf Ellmer and Dag Lerner formed this group. In 1995 Ellmer left to focus on another project Jam & Spoon. Their best known track is Power of American Natives.

More than one in ten oil spill cleanup worker were injuried or became ill from the work cleaning up after the Exxon Valdez oil spill, This cleanup was the first done under OSHA's then recent Hazwoper regulation and maybe the first time an OSHA program went into voluntary compliance mode (like the agency later did during the World Trade Center cleanup and Katrina) Contact me for more information on worker health and safety issues during this spill. I was living in Alaska at the time and worked with the Alaska Laborers Union on occupational health and safety concerns during the cleanup. My email is mdcatlin@verizon.net . For a detailed federal government review of worker health and safety issues, read the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) report, Alaska Oil Spill Health Hazard Evaluation (HETA 89-200 & 89-273-2111), published in May 1991 and available on the NIOSH website at www.cdc.gov .

March 24, 1989 will forever plague history as one of the worst environmental disasters of our time. Eleven million gallons of oil spilled into the Prince William Sound killing thousands of wildlife and destroying a complex and delicate ecosystem. Exxon promised they would clean up the spill and promised that those affected would get their lives back. Sixteen years later and the people are still waiting for their lives to become "whole" again.

February 23, 2009 - Professor Jeffrey Fisher will talk about his work on Exxon v. Baker, a case that grew out of the Exxon Valdez oil spill, one of the most devastating environmental disasters in US history, and the implications of the US Supreme Court's recent opinion for punitive damages law. Fisher will discuss some of the challenges of litigating a case concerning an event that occurred almost 20 years ago and 4000 miles away against the world's most profitable corporation. Before the Ninth Circuit and US Supreme Court, Fisher represented the class of more than 32000 victims of the spill, including commercial fishermen, private landowners, and Alaska Natives; esteemed Duke Law Professor Walter Dellinger represented Exxon.

Dispersants are being used in the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response. Dispersants are not safe to humans or the environment. They contain various industrial solvents and workers must be protected from exposure. Dispersants are usually applied directly to the spilled oil by spraying from an airplane, helicopter, or vessel. During the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup in Alaska, some dispersants were manually sprayed by workers on oiled beaches. Although dispersants are manufactured by many companies and their ingredients may differ, most contain a detergent and a solvent. The solvent allows the detergent to be applied. The detergent helps to break up the oil on the water surface into very small drops. These tiny oil drops are then able to easily mix with the water and be diluted. Most dispersants contain petroleum distillates, a colorless liquid with a gasoline- or kerosene-like odor. They are composed of a mixture of paraffins (C5 to C13) that may contain a small amount of aromatic hydrocarbons. Exposure to can cause irritation to the eyes, skin, or respiratory tract. NIOSH also recommends preventing skin contact with oil mist. To prevent harmful respiratory and dermal health effects NIOSH recommends reducing worker exposures to petroleum distillates and similar cleaning agents in dispersants. For more details, go to the NIOSH website at www.cdc.gov . This was clipped from video produced by the Governors Office of the State of Alaska in 1989 and 1990.

The usual PPE for this area was a set of rain gear, oil resistant gloves and boots duct tapped to the rain gear and a hard hat and chemical eye protection. Plastic bags containing oily waste, generated during the cleanup, were processed at this facility, also known as the Dayville site. Up to 50 day-shift workers and 20 night-shift workers sorted the bags, separating out those that did not contain oily waste for transport to a sanitary landfill. Those that contained oily waste were doublebagged and moved to a holding area at the site for subsequent transport to other hazardous waste landfills. The workers sorting the bags wore PPE for protection from the oil contents of the bags which frequently were torn open during handling or broke open because they were not sealed securely. Several foremen, members of the Alaska Laborers Union, had completed their unions 40-hour HAZWOPER class and convinced their employer to let them build a decontamination line, which was not present when the site was established. They built a wonderful decon area with lots of extras, like enclosed areas for protection from the wind and rain and boot dryers with warm air. Everyone used this decon after their 12 hour shift, unlike many of the other decons on the spill which were by-passed by most workers and supervisors. For more information on this cleanup, go to the Laborers Union public health team report at the NIEHS Oil Spill website (under Other Oil Spill Resources) at tools.niehs.nih.gov and <b>...</b>

Its been 20 years since the Exxon Valdez oil tanker spilled into the Prince William Sound, and dumped almost 11 million gallons of oil into the water. But even after two decades of trials and environmental cleanup, conditions are still dismal for the residents who have been trying to get justice. And to make things even worse, we still don't have a full understanding of what really happened when the tanker hit the reef. And that's where our good friend Greg Palast comes in. Greg has been covering this story since the start, and it was the lack of real investigations and inquiries into this disaster that kickstarted his career in journalism. Ring of Fire's Mike Papantonio talks with Palast about the true history of the Exxon Valdez.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday, June 25, 2008, slashed the $2.5 billion punitive damages award in the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster to $500 million. The court ruled that victims of the worst oil spill in US history may collect punitive damages from Exxon Mobil Corp., but not as much as a federal appeals court determined. (AP Photo/Jack Smith, File) It's a little more than $500 million for 33000 plaintiffs, but that money will not be divided evenly. The amount each person gets depends on his or her historical catch rates and the fishery that employs them. But on average, they'll get about $15000 each.
