Download or read book An Historical Review of Oil Spills Along the Maine Coast 1953 1973 written by Edward H. Shenton and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A one month study was conducted to assemble and document oil spill data along the coast of Maine beginning with 1953 when records were first kept. A total of 451 oil spills were found reported over a 20 year period; 336 of these occurred in the Portland vicinity. Recent data reported by the Maine Dept. of Marine Resources show long term oil persistence and biological impact in two cases, the Northern Gulf and Long Cove. Although reporting information is only accurate after 1970, a suggested extrapolation is made for Portland Harbor showing the possible number of spills occurring since 1950 based on oil throughput. Observations of the spills and spill effects are reported on data sheets while the most important biological impacts are discussed. A complete listing of oil terminal facilities is presented. The need for a better reporting system and biological monitoring programs are suggested.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1970s, experts have recognized that petroleum pollutants were being discharged in marine waters worldwide, from oil spills, vessel operations, and land-based sources. Public attention to oil spills has forced improvements. Still, a considerable amount of oil is discharged yearly into sensitive coastal environments. Oil in the Sea provides the best available estimate of oil pollutant discharge into marine waters, including an evaluation of the methods for assessing petroleum load and a discussion about the concerns these loads represent. Featuring close-up looks at the Exxon Valdez spill and other notable events, the book identifies important research questions and makes recommendations for better analysis ofâ€"and more effective measures againstâ€"pollutant discharge. The book discusses: Inputâ€"where the discharges come from, including the role of two-stroke engines used on recreational craft. Behavior or fateâ€"how oil is affected by processes such as evaporation as it moves through the marine environment. Effectsâ€"what we know about the effects of petroleum hydrocarbons on marine organisms and ecosystems. Providing a needed update on a problem of international importance, this book will be of interest to energy policy makers, industry officials and managers, engineers and researchers, and advocates for the marine environment.
