The rational development of improved pre-conditioning agents for the removal of oil contamination from wildlife and rocky foreshore

野生动物和生态资源，如菲利普岛的小企鹅群落(每年有50万游客)及其环境是澳大利亚生态旅游业的核心。如果管理得当，这些资源将对经济作出重大贡献，并可为当地社区提供多样化的就业机会。它们还提高了对一般环境问题的认识和敏感性。开发和实施新的和改进的技术，以拯救和修复受油污的野生动物以及修复受污染的前滨，除其固有价值外，还将有助于在国家和国际一级保持这种资源的可持续性。

Wildlife and ecological resources such as Phillip Island's Little Penguin colony (with 500,000 visitors p.a.) and its environment are at the heart of Australia's ecotourism industry. If properly managed, such resources make significant contributions to the economy and can provide diverse employment opportunities for local communities. They also increase awareness of, and sensitivity to, environmental issues in general. Developing and implementing new and improved techniques for the rescue and rehabilitation of oiled wildlife and for the remediation of contaminated foreshore, apart from its inherent value, will contribute to the sustainability of such resources both at the national and international level.
