Any Tribal, State, or Federal Natural Resource Trustee can submit NRD claims to the NPFC for damages resulting from an oil spill incident. However, only a Federal Lead Administrative Trustee (FLAT) may submit requests for initiate funding; non-Federal Trustees are encouraged to work with the FLAT on preparing and submitting the initiate request.
