Summary:

"The State-level Responses to Abandoned and Derelict Vessels workshop was held September 15 to 17, 2009. A representative from each coastal state (including the Great Lakes) was invited to attend. The term 'state' should be interpreted throughout this document to include territories and commonwealths of the United States of America. This document is organized to provide two levels of detail for any audience interested in abandoned and derelict vessels (ADVs). Section I has been designed as a reference tool to provide introductory and high-level information on the components of a state-level ADV program. In Section II, a significant amount of information is included for each of the identified components of a successful state ADV program. During the workshop, attendees shared numerous ideas during the discussion of each program component-first in small teams, and then with the entire workshop. Support and criticism for each idea was shared openly, and the detailed description found under each idea is taken directly from the expert attendees"--Preface.
