As many people are concerned about the long term health of the Gulf of Mexico and the surrounding area, this website is quite timely. Created by the federal government, RestoretheGulf.gov serves to provide the public with information on the response to the Deepwater BP oil spill, along with news updates, and links to other governmental partners. The materials on the site are contained within four different sections, including "News", "Assistance", and "The Response". The "Assistance" area contains information about claims and appeals, how to stay safe in and around the area, and also about how to volunteer with relief efforts. Moving on, "The Response" section offers information on state and local resources, a detailed response timeline from day 1 to the present, and links to a customizable interactive map with near real-time information. The site is rounded by a link where visitors can submit their own suggestions regarding the cleanup.
