Boom
Over 88,0000 feet of spill boom is located at various storage sites throughout the Delaware Bay and River area. The quantity of boom available is less than the total inventory because certain boom has been reserved for use at upriver pre-planned boom sites. Depending on the location and size of the spill, however, some additional boom may be available. DBRC has twenty (20) small spill boom transport trailers, and six (6) semi-trailers for land transportation of spill boom.
