n: a pool of money set up under OPA to provide for increased federal response to oil spills. A $1 billion oil spill cleanup fund (created with an existing $.05/barrel fee on oil) was established under OPA. Half of the fund can be used for a single spill, and spill victims can use the fund when a spillers liability limit has been reached, when the spiller is unknown, or when settlement is delayed.
