    Workers in safety gear and dark uniforms with reflective striping are deploying a large yellow containment barrier at a port facility, using bags of 'All-Purpose Sand' from AS&G (phone number 349-3333) to anchor or support the barrier. The scene appears to be a spill containment or emergency response exercise/operation at a dock, with cargo ships, cranes, and port equipment visible in the background. At least four workers are visible, wearing hard hats of varying colors and American flag patches on their uniforms.

    Response crews finished construction of a temporary 30-foot by 100-foot decontamination and containment site on the Valdez Container Terminal pier in Valdez, Alaska, June 9, 2013. With the site complete, the next phase of response operations includes wrapping each container in plastic and lifting them off the BBC Arizona and into the decontamination area. Response personnel will be standing by with a vacuum truck and waterside response boats during off-loading, anticipated to begin Monday, as a precautionary measure.

    Workers in black uniforms and yellow/green hard hats are handling a large yellow material, likely an oil spill containment boom or tarpaulin, near a docked cargo vessel. The ship belongs to BBC Chartering and is loaded with red K-LINE shipping containers. The scene appears to be a port operation, possibly an environmental response or cargo preparation exercise.
    A BBC Chartering vessel is docked at a port, likely in Alaska given the snow-capped mountains visible in the background. Workers in high-visibility safety gear and hard hats are deploying what appears to be a large black containment liner bordered by yellow inflatable berms on the dock. Red K-LINE shipping containers are stacked on the ship's deck, and a crane hook is visible in the upper right corner.
