    Members of a response shoreline clean-up team remove oiled spartina grass stems on Thursday. Under the supervision of Jan MacKinnon, a wetlands biologist from the Coastal Resources Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, vegetation cutting is a treatment designed to preserve grass rhizomes while further reducing any potential oil transfer to wildlife after multiple applications of sphagnum moss.
