An Overview of OSPR s mandates and programs. 40 Discussion: In November 2004, Lisa Curtis was appointed by Gov. Schwarzenegger as Deputy Administrator for the California Department of Fish and Game s Office of Spill Prevention and Response. Prior to this appointment, Ms. Curtis held position of Chief of the Office of Spill Prevention and Response Enforcement Branch since October 2001 where she oversaw the Dept. s statewide pollution response and enforcement efforts. She served in difference management capacitieswith the Dept. of F&G from 1997 to 2001. Ms. Curtis delivered Carlton Moore s OSPR 101 presentation. The presentation covers OSPR s mandates and programs. Currently, the agency is divided into two main sections: Inland, funded by penalities collected from RP s and Marine, funded by petroleum product tax. The uneven funding mechanism for the Inland section is of concern and remains a priority to OSPR while funding for Marine is presently $50mil/year. The presentation is posted on the HIT Team s website: (http://cchealth.org/groups/hazmat/interagency_task_force.php ). Conclusions: Thank you Lisa Curtis for delivering the presentation to our group on short notice and with such good humor! Thanks again.
