This circular explains that non-tank vessel operators transiting Western Alaska waters now have a choice of alternative planning criteria for meeting US federal vessel response plan requirements.

London P&I notes that NRC and Resolve Marine Group have received final US Coast Guard approval for their 1-Call Alaska coverage, and that the relevant addendum conforms with International Group guidelines so no additional cover is required when it is signed.
