Below, you will see the steps and equipment required for assembly of the pen. Oil spill response drills often include a practice deployment of this equipment so that workers are ready in the event such a structure is needed.
Net Pen Deployment
How would oil spill responders and sea otter personnel hold sea otters in a safe place under a triage situation such as during a major oil spill? In the event of a large oil spill, sea otters would be held in a large, floating net pen that can be easily assembled and deployed in the event of a spill or other disaster.
