Information for those of you who have ideas on how to clean up the Gulf of Mexico or even just a shoreline?  Here is your contact information:

Option 2

Thousands of people have submitted possible ideas on how to stop or contain the oil in the Gulf of Mexico.

More than 20,000 ideas on how to stop the flow of oil or contain the oil spill have been sent to BP since the Gulf of Mexico incident.  These ideas have flooded in from people across the world, ranging from ordinary members of the public to oil industry professionals, and in many languages from Arabic to Russian.

BP has implemented a process to review and evaluate all of these suggestions.

There are two ways to submit a suggestion in this option:

1. Call the Houston suggestion line at (281) 366-5511
2. Fill out the online suggestion form at http://www.horizonedocs.com/artform.php

Each caller to the Houston suggestion line has their details entered into the Horizon Call Center database. The database then automatically generates and sends the caller a simple form, termed the Alternative Response Technologies form, for them to set out the details of their idea.

Alternatively, the online form is a valuable tool in helping the team to systematically review the technical merits of the idea, as it allows the caller to describe the materials, equipment and skills needed for it to work.
