From the Objectives: “1) Conduct field surveys of hard substrate communities at selected sites with the three California OCS Planning Areas and off soft substrate communities at the selected sites within the Central andNorthern California Planning area
From the Conclusions: “Sea current measurements and hydrocarbon exposure measures in the caged mussels indicated that the station design of the investigation captured the produced water plume from the Troll C platform.
From the Study Results: “The deep-water (>65 m [210 ft)] seafloor of the project area was predominantly soft bottom and contained a relatively small portion (< 10%) of hard-bottom substrate.

From the Abstract: “This paper describes effects of drilling with water and synthetic-based drilling muds on benthic macro- invertebrates over 10 years at the Terra Nova offshore oil development.
This book contains 14 papers, 12 of which deal with various aspects of the fishes or invertebrates that live around Gulf of Mexico oil and gas platforms.
