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.

Book Proposed 1981 Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Lease Sale Offshore Central and Northern California OCS Sale No 53

Download or read book Proposed 1981 Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Lease Sale Offshore Central and Northern California OCS Sale No 53 written by United States. Bureau of Land Management. Pacific Outer Continental Shelf Office and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 786 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proposed OCS Sale No. 53 includes a maximum offering of 242 tracts for oil and gas leasing offshore central and northern California. Tracts comprise 532,258 hectares (1,315,205 acres) on the Federal OCS, ranging seaward from 3 to as far as 27 miles, and lying in water depths from 50 to 750 meters (162 to 2,437 feet). Tracts comprise five distinct subareas, extending from waters opposite Humboldt Bay in northern California to offshore waters opposite Point Conception in central California. There are no Federal oil and gas leases in the area at present. Very minor exploratory drilling has occurred in some areas previously. Because it is frontier area, the exact extent of oil and gas resources which might be present is somewhat uncertain. The U.S. Geological Survey estimates the most probable resource amounts at 548 million barrels of oil and 621 billion cubic feet of gas. Four of the subareas are regarded as oil prone, while all five are regarded as also likely containing gas. Pending final decision by the Secretary of the Interior, the proposed lease Sale is tentatively scheduled for May 1981.
