The Environmental Ministries of the five German coastal states and the Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Housing have been working together since 1975 to prevent and combat oil pollution incidents. During this time, equipment and ships in the amount of greater than 250 million € have been purchased. Even the required operational structure was built.
The coastal states have added to this with contingency planning for the total German North and Baltic Sea coasts since 1998, including the harbours of Hamburg and Bremen. All essential operation-relevant data were compiled and edited, so that they can be easily recalled from a geographic-orientated information system with a minimum of user guidance.
