This thesis is an examination of toxic metal concentrations around three shipwfecks in the Westem Basin of Lake Erie. These wrecks are densely populated with zebra mussels (Dreissem polymoqha). It was anticipaîed that the zebra mussels were a mechanism by which the toxic met& in the surrounding water were deposited on and around the shipwrecks. UtiliPng scuba divers, thirty-six samples (twelve hmeach site) were gathered and chemically analysed. The results indicate that one of the shipwrecks under study, the Conemaugh,was statistically different fiom the other wrecks. This could be atfributed to dissimilar environmental conditions at this site. Statistical andysis of the remaining data set revealed that the toxic metals under study were in fact concentrated on the shipwrecks, and decreased in concentration with increased distance hmthe wrecks. In several instances, available govemment standards for contaminiited soUsedirnent were exceeded by the observecl toxic metal concentrations. As a result of the observecl toxic metal concentrations, and the relevant literature, it could be concluded that the zebra mussels were the mechanism by which the toxic rnetals reached their obsewed elevated concentrations. iii Many people deserve thanks for their contributions to this thesis. My advisor, Dr. Pete LaValIe is most responsible for my success as a university student, culmùiating with this project Without his expert tutelage, and innumerable hours of assistance and advice, 1 like1y would never have entered graduate school, or completed this thesis. Dr. Chais Lakhan, my second reader, aleoften filling my head with dreams of Guyana, South Amerka, has kept me focussed on the goal at hand, and helped me to achieve it. Dr. Don Wailen, my exterd reviewer, deserves credit for his ongoing advice. Several people were Myresponsible for helping me get the field and laboratory work completed. Mr. Grant Meseck, and Mr. Mike Drexier deserve thanks for assisting me in sampfe collection Mr. Derek Nardini deserves recognition for help on shore, as well as in the geopphy department for his help with computer problems, and general advice dong the way. Mr. John Karry of Save Ontario Shipwrecks (Windsor Chapter), and Mr. Peter Engelbert of the Ontario Miaistry of Heritage and Culturr, deserve thanks for allowing me to gather some of my samples while accompanying them on meydives for ErieQuest. 1 am grateful to the stafïat Point Pelee National Park for permitting myselfand those assisting me access to the tip with vehicles and gear, so that 1 couid gather samples hmthe Conemmgh. Mr. J-C. Barrette of the Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research was instrumental in actually performing the chernical anaiysis on my samples, and in adjushg the fee structure so that my iimited research fun& would dowfor the cornpletion of the needed tests. Jennifer Elcomb, of South Shore Scuba, supplied me with undenvater photographs for my thesis. Last, but not least, my family deserves a great deal of credit for allowing me to complete this project. As anyone who knows me can attesf 1 prefer to work at odd hours. It has been a great advantage to be permitted to corne and go at my leisure and to work when motivated to do so. This was, I am sure, of considerable inconvenience to all concemed. There were times when they forgot what I looked like because 1 wasn't amund, just as there were times when 1 was hard at work in my room at ali hours of the night, bothering those who tried to sleep. To my girfiend, Jenuifer McLean, 1 know how hard this has been on you, and us. Hopefully now we cari get on with our Lives. TABLE OF CONTENTS page...

Preface to the First Edition The idea and need for this volume was first suggested by Mr. Ian Kenyon of The Ontario Heritage Foundation in response to requests from avocational archaeologists (especially Mr. Art Howey) that a new programme be initiated to follow on from the ACO programme that had been operated so successfully by the then Ministry of Culture and Communications. Following discussions between Ian Kenyon, Art Howey, Mike Kirby and myself during the winter and spring of 1992, we all agreed that in order for any new programme to begin a good quality field manual was necessary for use by avocational archaeologists. We believed that a field manual would set a high and consistent standard of reporting, recording and registering of sites by avocationals throughout the province. We also believed it would be of interest and use to professional archaeologists as well as to students of archaeology.

  • Request for Proposal-01-22-16-Dive
    Save Ontario Shipwrecks-Superior Chapter Request for Proposals-01-22-16 Preparation of a “Lake Superior – Graveyard of Ships” Dive Inventory/Strategy” Closing- 3:00 pm Friday, February 26, 2016. 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose of RFP This document describes the products expected from a consultant engaged to conduct a “Dive Inventory” and “Strategy” for the site commonly known as the “Lake Superior Graveyard of Ships”, as well as the shipwreck Theano, including “next steps” for developing Technical Wreck Diving tourism in the “Top of Superior region.” 1.2 About the Proponent Save Ontario Shipwrecks Superior Chapter (SOS-Superior), formerly known as Superior Underwater Exploration Society (SUES) is the Superior Chapter of Save Ontario Shipwrecks (SOS), a Provincial Heritage Organization in Ontario Canada, dedicated to the study, preservation and promotion of an appreciation of Ontario's marine heritage. SOS- SUperior has been actively working to promote diving in the Top Of Superior region including a mooring project entitled The Lake Superior Shipwreck Trail and the Top of Superior Dive Strategy. SOS-Superior is partnering with Thunder Bay Tourism, the Township of Nipigon, Wally’s Thunder Country Diving and Parks Canada/Lake Superior National Marine Conservation Area on the “Lake Superior – Graveyard of Ships” Dive Inventory/Strategy” 1.3 Background In 2014/2015, the Township of Nipigon Working with the Superior Under Water Exploration Society (SUES) and with the support of a number of partners hired Steve Lewis Consulting to produce a Dive Inventory and Marketing strategy for the Top of Lake Superior Region. Perhaps the most important recommendation to come out of the report was that an inventory of the” Graveyard of Ships” and the Theano be started as soon as practically possible, as the success of dive tourism in the Top of Superior Area will hinge on this asset.

Point of Contact: Philip Church, Oswego County Administrator, Chairman of Great Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary Nomination Task Force; 46 East Bridge Street, Oswego 13126; phone 315-349-8235, fax 315-349-8237, e-mail [email protected] Section II – Introduction Narrative Description: The proposed Great Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary includes unique and significant submerged cultural resources within a corridor that is one of the most historically significant regions in the Great Lakes and the North American continent. Located in the southeastern and eastern quadrant of Lake Ontario, this area and its tributaries provided food and transportation trade routes for indigenous peoples and early European explorers, such as Samuel de Champlain. During the colonial period, it was a strategic theater of conflict among European powers and the young American republic. Military actions involving naval and land forces occurred at Sodus, Oswego, Big Sandy Creek, and Sackets Harbor during the French and Indian War, Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. These actions involved historic figures such as the Marquis de Montcalm, Sir William Johnson, Commodore Isaac Chauncey and Sir James Yeo.
