Ardrox 6120*Oil Dispersant Type 2/3As held by AMOSC Members

Transitional Acceptance*

1 Jan 2012

*Note: Transitional acceptance applies to a limited list of dispersant products held in AMSA and AMOSC stockpiles as of 1 January 2012 that are deemed to be OSCA registered on the basis that they have met previous acceptance requirements. These may be made available and used for National Plan responses until used or disposed of.

AMSA and AMOSC stocks of other dispersant products originally designated with transitional acceptance (Shell VDC, Tergo R40, Dasic Slickgone LTSW) have been removed from stockpiles and so transitional acceptance is withdrawn from these. They are no longer acceptable for use in Australian National Plan responses.
