§1800.202. Proportionate number of miles of shoreline that experienced oiling as a result of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

40 C.F.R. § 1800.202

The proportionate number of miles for each Gulf Coast State is determined by dividing each Gulf Coast State's number of miles of oiled shoreline determined in § 1800.201 by the total number of affected miles. This calculation yields the following:
(a)
Alabama— 8.04%.
(b)
Florida— 15.63%.
(c)
Louisiana— 58.92%.
(d)
Mississippi— 14.19%.
(e)

The distance from the farthest point of the Louisiana shoreline that experienced oiling from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill was 213.7 miles. The average of these two distances is 128.6 miles.
(d)
Mississippi— The distance from the nearest point of the Mississippi shoreline that experienced oiling from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill was 87.7 miles. The distance from the farthest point of the Mississippi shoreline that experienced oiling from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill was 107.9 miles. The average of these two distances is 97.8 miles.
(e)
Texas— The distance from the nearest point of the Texas shoreline that experienced oiling from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill was 306.2 miles. The distance from the farthest point of the Texas shoreline that experienced oiling from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill was 356.5 miles. The average of these two distances is 331.3 miles.

§1800.302. Inverse proportions.

40 C.F.R. § 1800.302

The inverse proportion for each Gulf Coast State is determined by summing the proportional average distances determined in § 1800.301 and taking the inverse. This calculation yields the following:
(a)
Alabama— 27.39%.
(b)
Florida— 17.06%.
(c)
Louisiana— 20.55%.
(d)
Mississippi— 27.02%.
(e)
Texas— 7.98%.
