The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 90) is a landmark piece of legislation enacted by the United States in response to the catastrophic Exxon Valdez oil spill in 1989. This act significantly strengthened the federal government’s ability to prevent and respond to oil spills, imposing stringent requirements on oil transporters, vessel operators, and facility owners. By enhancing preparedness, liability, and environmental protection, OPA 90 has played a crucial role in shaping modern oil spill prevention and response strategies.
