Show Notes

In this episode of the "Coast To Coasties" Podcast, we continue to build upon our previous episode highlighting the Marine Science Technician Rate, and take a further in depth look at the pollution and response side of the job. Our guest today, MST1 Justin Basham, has been a Marine Science Technician in the Coast Guard for 12 years with a majority of his career and interests focused on the pollution response side of the rate. We discuss the various positions and job opportunities you could potentially find yourself in while working in a pollution shop, as well as the roles, responsibilities, and authorities an MST has on a pollution case at various stages of your career. If you are interested in pollution response and environmental protection this is a great episode to turn into to further your knowledge on the life of an MST assigned to a pollution shop billet in the Coast Guard!
