  • Ceduna 3D Marine Seismic Survey, Great Australian Bight
    Referral of proposed action Project title: Ceduna 3D Marine Seismic Survey, Great Australian Bight 1 Summary of proposed action 1.1 Short description BP Exploration (Alpha) Limited (BP) proposes to undertake the Ceduna three-dimensional (3D) marine seismic survey across petroleum exploration permits EPP 37, EPP 38, EPP 39 and EPP 40 located in the Great Australian Bight (GAB). The proposed survey area is located in Commonwealth marine waters of the Ceduna sub-basin, between 1000 m and 3000 m deep, and is about 400 km west of Port Lincoln and 300 km southwest of Ceduna in South Australia. The proposed seismic survey is scheduled to commence no earlier than October 2011 and to conclude no later than end of May 2012. The survey is expected to take approximately six months to complete allowing for typical weather downtime. Outside this time window, metocean conditions become unsuitable for 3D seismic operations. The survey will be conducted by a specialist seismic survey vessel towing a dual seismic source array and 12 streamers, each 8,100 m long. 1.2 Latitude and longitude The proposed survey area is shown in Figure 1 with boundary coordinates provided in Table 1.

SLOANI PHILIPPINENS1S VOSS, 1962 By Malcolm Dunning Maritime Estate Management Branch, Queensland National Parks and Wildlife Service, PO Box 190, North Quay, Qld 4002, Australia Abstract Dunning, M., 1988. First records of Notoiociarus hawaiiensis (Berry, 1912) (Cephalopoda: Om- mastrephidae) from northern Australia with a reconsideration of the identity of N. sloani philip- pinensis Voss, 1962. Memoirs of the Museum of Victoria 49: 159-168. Nototodarus hawaiiensis (Berry, 1912) is reported for the first time from northern Australian continental slope waters and distribution and life history are discussed. Re-examination of the holotype of N. sloani philippinensis Voss, 1962 confirms that this subspecies is a junior syno- nym of N. hawaiiensis and that the paratype is referrable to Todarodes pacificus Steenstrup, 1880.
