The Bristol Bay Environment. A Background Study of Available Knowledge,

Abstract

This report is designed to provide a comprehensive description of the area known as Bristol Bay as a basis for environmental impact statements. The Corps of Engineers anticipates that such statements will be required under section 102 (2) (C) of the Environmental Policy Act of 1969 for activities relating to the exploration, development, and production of petroleum in this area. The report consists, first, of a summary of currently available physical, biological, and socio-economic knowledge about the area (section 2 through 8). It describes present conditions in the Bay, either based on current information or inferred from historical data. The text is supplemented extensively with graphics. A comprehensive reference list is included with each section ot assist the reader in obtaining additional details on any specific topic.
