The St. John's Historic Cemetery Association, Inc. is a non-profit organization located in Thibodaux, Louisiana. It is dedicated to the preservation and maintenance of the St. John's Cemetery, which is one of the oldest and most historic cemeteries in the area. The cemetery was established in the early 1800s and contains the graves of many prominent citizens of Thibodaux and the surrounding areas.

The association was founded in 1998 by a group of concerned citizens who recognized the need to preserve this important piece of local history. Since then, the association has worked tirelessly to restore and maintain the cemetery, which had fallen into disrepair over the years.

The association is run by a board of directors and relies on donations and volunteers to carry out its mission. Its activities include cleaning and repairing gravesites, restoring damaged monuments, and conducting research on the history of the cemetery and the people buried there.

The St. John's Historic Cemetery Association, Inc. is committed to ensuring that this historic cemetery remains a vital part of the community for generations to come. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Thibodaux and the surrounding areas, and is a testament to the resilience and strength of the people who have lived here over the centuries.

Dispersant Stockpiles February 13, 2019 Presquille, LA Oil spill removal organizations (OSRO) maintain stockpiles of dispersants to use to mitigate the impact of an oil spill. In this photo, the chemical dispersants are stored in totes in a warehouse that are ready to load onto aircraft or vessels to support response operations. The use of dispersants is a response tactic that helps to mitigate the impact of a spill. When dispersants are applied to a slick, they break up the oil into lots of small droplets. These tiny droplets have a high surface area-to-volume ratio, making them easier for oil-eating microbes to break them down (through the process of biodegradation). Dispersant application strategies are listed in the Oil Spill Response Plans maintained by offshore facility owners and operators. BSEE Preparedness Analysts from the Oil Spill Preparedness Division (OSPD) regularly inspect these plans and dispersant stockpiles and application equipment to ensure compliance with regulations and to monitor the overall vigor of the oil spill preparedness and response community.

The aircraft have different functions - some spray the dispersants while others serve as spotters to monitor the effectiveness of the application.
