The Coastal Response Research Center (CRRC) was established as a partnership between the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), through the Office of Response and Restoration (OR&R) and the University of New Hampshire (UNH) in 2004. |
|
 |
The Center for Spills and Environmental Hazards (CSE) is a University center that expands the scope of interaction and cooperation with the private sector, other government agencies and universities. |
|
|
The Centers are administered by, and located at, the UNH campus in Durham, NH. Both centers are affiliated with the UNH School of Marine Science and Ocean Engineering (SMSOE). Center one-pager here>> |

ExxonMobil has coordinated a dispersant workshop at Ohmsett annually since 2018. Ohmsett has an excellent space for a large group meeting but more importantly it provides attendees the opportunity to observe dispersant-effectiveness tests firsthand. Unfortunately, the travel restrictions forced us to cancel this year’s workshop. Instead we intend to hold a virtual workshop via a series of webinars starting in September. |
