Class V Vessel Being Offloaded in Gulfport, MS Saturday, 1 May 2010 Eighty-three truckloads carrying SUPSALV gear were in route from the CONUS ESSM bases. Twenty-eight trucks of SUPSALV gear had already arrived in Gulfport. Twenty-one truckloads of equipment were redirected to Venice, LA (see Figure 5). Six GPC personnel were sent to Venice. Five additional GPC personnel were expected to arrive in Gulfport, totaling 37 GPC personnel deployed for the operation. An additional 2000′ of 42″ Oil Containment Boom was deployed off the western tip of Ship Island in a cascade configuration (see Figure 6) along with 1000′ of Oil Containment Boom previously deployed making a total of 3000′. The weather conditions were difficult for deploying and setting Oil Containment Boom. The fourth 1000′ section had parted. It was recovered and returned to port for repair. 5
