MUTAGENICITY OF ALASKAN OIL SPILL ORGANICS DURING EPA BIOREMEDIATION EFFORTS
On 24 March 1989 approximately 11 million gallons of Prudhoe Bay crude oil spilled into the waters of Prince William Sound, Alaska ultimately contaminating nearly 1000 miles of shoreline. pproximately 300 miles of contaminated beach were considered amenable to cleanup by bioremediation. o determine...
