Student’s co-op experience highlights Canada’s oil spill response organization
For his co-op placement, Environment and Business undergraduate student James Foote worked in the Response Readiness Team for Western Canada Marine Response Corporation (WCMRC). The WCMRC is a world-class oil spill response organization tasked with mechanically retrieving spilled oil out of Canada’s West Coast waters. When an oil spill occurs WCMRC is the only marine response organization on the west coast mandated by Transport Canada.
