(3) There is a change in the name(s) or capabilities of the oil spill removal organizations cited in the plan; or
(4) There is a significant change to the Area Contingency Plan(s).
(c) The Regional Supervisor may require that you resubmit your plan if the plan has become outdated or if numerous revisions have made its use difficult.
(d) The Regional Supervisor will periodically review the equipment inventories of OSRO's to ensure that sufficient spill removal equipment is available to meet the cumulative needs of the owners and operators who cite these organizations in their plans.
(e) The Regional Supervisor may require you to revise your plan if significant inadequacies are indicated by:
(1) Periodic reviews (described in paragraph (d) of this section);
(2) Information obtained during drills or actual spill responses; or
(3) Other relevant information the Regional Supervisor obtained.
