Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4ADESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM SERVICES CLEAN GULF ASSOCIATES (CGA) WAS FORMED ON AUGUST 1, 1972 AS A BUSINESS LEAGUE WITH THE PURPOSE OF PROMOTING ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION IN THE GULF OF AMERICA, FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE GULF OF MEXICO, BY ASSISTING ITS MEMBERS IN MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL ACT OF 1972. OPERATING CONTINUOUSLY SINCE THIS TIME, CGA OPERATES AS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT OIL SPILL RESPONSE COOPERATIVE FOR GULF OF AMERICA BASED OIL EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION ("E&P") COMPANIES. SPECIFICALLY, CGA IDENTIFIES, DESIGNS, AND ACQUIRES SPECIALIZED OIL SPILL RESPONSE EQUIPMENT AND CONTRACTS WITH THIRD PARTY BUSINESSES ("CGA CONTRACTORS") TO MAINTAIN AND OPERATE THIS EQUIPMENT TO PROTECT THE GULF OF AMERICA AND ITS ECOSYSTEMS FROM OIL SPILLS. THE CGA CONTRACTORS PREPOSITION THEIR PERSONNEL AND CGA'S EQUIPMENT IN TEXAS AND LOUISIANA TO ENSURE A FAST RESPONSE TO AN OIL SPILL. CGA'S COSTS OF ACQUIRING THE EQUIPMENT AND OF CONTRACTING FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT AND A READY FORCE OF TRAINED PERSONNEL ARE SHARED OVER CGA'S LARGE MEMBERSHIP THEREBY MINIMIZING OR ELIMINATING THE NEED FOR EACH CGA MEMBER TO STOCKPILE THEIR OWN EQUIPMENT AND PERSONNEL FOR THIS PURPOSE. AN OIL SPILL RESPONSE PLAN AND CAPABILITY IS REQUIRED OF OIL AND GAS E&P COMPANIES OPERATING IN THE GULF OF AMERICA BY THE BUREAU OF SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENFORCEMENT ("BSEE") UNDER TITLE 30, CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS, PART 254 TO RESPOND TO WORST CASE DISCHARGES OF OIL. CGA'S MEMBERSHIP INCLUDES BOTH MAJOR OIL COMPANIES, SMALL INDEPENDENT OIL COMPANIES AND PIPELINE OPERATORS, WHO OPERATE IN THE GULF OF AMERICA. AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2025, CGA'S MEMBERSHIP NUMBERS INCLUDE 54 PRIMARY MEMBERS AND 14 ASSOCIATE MEMBERS (BEING, GENERALLY, COMPANIES WITH OPERATIONS IN THE GULF OF AMERICA THAT DO NOT OPERATE OIL AND GAS LEASES THERE, SUCH AS PIPELINE COMPANIES). NO PART OF CGA'S NET EARNINGS INURE TO THE BENEFIT OF ANY PRIVATE MEMBER, INDIVIDUAL OR COMPANY. CGA CONDUCTS THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES EXCLUSIVELY IN THE GULF OF AMERICA EITHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH ITS CONTRACT OIL SPILL RESPONSE PROVIDERS: (1) ON WATER OIL SPILL RESPONSE OPERATIONS (5%) (COMMENCED IN 1972). CGA USES ITS INVENTORY OF LARGE OFFSHORE TO SMALLER NEAR SHORE ASSETS AND CONTRACT OPERATORS AND PERSONNEL TO RESPOND TO OFFSHORE, NEAR SHORE, AND LAKES, BAYS AND SOUNDS ENVIRONMENTS INCLUDING THOSE AREAS WHERE OIL MAY HAVE MADE IT PAST THE INITIAL CONTAINMENT PHASE OF A SPILL RESPONSE OPERATION. CGA'S GOAL IS TO COLLECT, DISPERSE, OR BURN OIL BEFORE IT REACHES SENSITIVE ECOSYSTEMS. (2) EQUIPMENT PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE (40%) (COMMENCED IN 1972). CGA ENSURES THAT PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE IS PERFORMED ON CGA-OWNED EQUIPMENT SO THAT THE EQUIPMENT IS ALWAYS READY TO DEPLOY. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH AN ACTIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM FOLLOWED BY INSPECTION AND/OR EXERCISE OF THE EQUIPMENT AND TRACKED VIA A COMPUTERIZED PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE SYSTEM. THE EQUIPMENT CONTRACTOR MAINTAINS CGA EQUIPMENT ON AN AGREED-TO SCHEDULE AND KEEPS MAINTENANCE RECORDS FOR VISUAL INSPECTION BY CGA, AUDITORS AND REGULATORY AGENCIES AS NEEDED. (3) ADMINISTRATION OF THE ORGANIZATION (20%) (COMMENCED IN 1972). CGA CONDUCTS INDUSTRY WORKGROUP SUPPORT, FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING AND MEMBERSHIP RELATIONS. THIS IS DONE THROUGH BI-ANNUAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND TECHNICAL OPERATIONS COMMITTEE MEETINGS, INFORMAL AND FORMAL INDIVIDUAL MEETINGS, PUBLIC MEETINGS WITH REGULATORY AGENCIES, AND AT AN ANNUAL MEETING OF THE CGA MEMBERSHIP. (4) OIL SPILL PREPAREDNESS ACTIVITIES (30%) (COMMENCED IN 1972). CGA CONDUCTS DRILLS AND EXERCISES TO TEST THE EQUIPMENT, THE CONTRACT PERSONNEL AND ASSIST MEMBER COMPANIES TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THEIR OIL SPILL RESPONSE PLANS. (5) WILDLIFE REHABILITATION (1%) (COMMENCED IN 1972). CGA MAINTAINS A MOBILE WILDLIFE REHABILITATION STATION WITH TWO SUPPORT TRAILERS CAPABLE OF BEING RAPIDLY POSITIONED IN THE WILDLIFE-IMPACTED LOCATION. THESE TRAILERS ARE SELF-SUPPORTING AND EQUIPPED WITH BIRD CLEANING STATIONS FOR THE PURPOSE OF REHABILITATING OILED WILDLIFE. (6) INSITU-BURN OPERATIONS (1%) (COMMENCED IN 2011). CGA MAINTAINS A LIMITED FIRE-BOOM SYSTEM CAPABILITY TO COMPLEMENT EXISTING MECHANICAL RECOVERY SYSTEMS IN THE GULF. (7) DISPERSANT OPERATIONS (3%) (COMMENCED IN 1991). CGA CONTRACTS WITH AN INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR TO PROVIDE AERIAL DISPERSANT SERVICES FOR CGA MEMBERS. WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE U.S. COAST GUARD FEDERAL ON SCENE COORDINATOR, AERIAL DISPERSANT OPERATIONS ARE ACCOMPLISHED WITH THE FOLLOWING EQUIPMENT: (A) BT-67 BASLER, (B) DC-3 SPRAY AIRCRAFT AND (C) TWIN COMMANDER SPOTTER AIRCRAFT. CGA MAINTAINS A STOCKPILE OF DISPERSANTS FOR USE BY THE MEMBERSHIP.
