NIOSH's work on the Deepwater Horizon response is highlighted in a new manuscript entitled "Protecting workers in large-scale emergency responses: NIOSH experience in the Deepwater Horizon response," published in the July Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. The article describes NIOSH’s activities in the response and its cooperative efforts with the Unified Area Command, OSHA, and other federal, state and local partners who worked to protect response workers.
