Abstract | The report presents the results of an intensive fact finding survey of ocean waste disposal practices in six geographic areas. The areas were the New York Bight; Charleston, South Carolina; segments of the Gulf of Mexico Coast; Southern California; San Francisco; and Pudget Sound. Ocean Disposal sites within these areas were selected to provide a representative cross section of ocean waste disposal practices in the United States. Concurrent with a field survey and personal interview program, detailed data and information research was performed. The sum of the information obtained by this coordinated program was used to establish a data base which will be used to recommend guidelines for the control of ocean waste disposal. (Author) |
