Bay Shore Power Plant Cooling Water Intake Structure Information and I&E Sampling Data
BAY SHORE POWER PLANT COOLING WATER INTAKE STRUCTURE INFORMATION AND I&E SAMPLING DATA Kinectrics Report: 112026-005-RA-0002-R00 January, 2008 Darlene Ager, Ph.D., David Marttila, Eng, Paul Patrick, Ph.D. Environmental and Aquatic Management Services PRIVATE INFORMATION Contents of this report shall not be disclosed without the consent of the Customer.

Paul Patrick, Ph.D. Environmental and Aquatic Management Services EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Section 316(b) of the Clean Water Act (CWA) requires that cooling water intake structures reflect the best technology available for minimizing adverse environmental impact to aquatic organisms that are impinged (being pinned against screens or outer part of a cooling water intake structure) or entrained (being drawn into and through cooling water systems). Phase II of the 316(b) rule for existing electric generating plants was designed to reduce impingement mortality by 80-95% and, if applicable, entrainment by 60-90%. In January 2007, the Second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals remanded several provisions of the Phase II rule on various grounds. The provisions remanded included: • EPA’s determination of the Best Technology Available under Section 316(b); • The rule’s performance standard ranges; • The cost-cost and cost-benefit compliance alternatives; • The Technology Installation and Operation Plan provision; • The restoration provisions; and • The “independent supplier” provision. -

Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean Volume
ISBN 0-9689167-4-x Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean (Davis Strait, Southern Greenland and Flemish Cap to Cape Hatteras) Volume One Acipenseriformes through Syngnathiformes Michael P. Fahay ii Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean iii Dedication This monograph is dedicated to those highly skilled larval fish illustrators whose talents and efforts have greatly facilitated the study of fish ontogeny. The works of many of those fine illustrators grace these pages. iv Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean v Preface The contents of this monograph are a revision and update of an earlier atlas describing the eggs and larvae of western Atlantic marine fishes occurring between the Scotian Shelf and Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (Fahay, 1983). The three-fold increase in the total num- ber of species covered in the current compilation is the result of both a larger study area and a recent increase in published ontogenetic studies of fishes by many authors and students of the morphology of early stages of marine fishes. It is a tribute to the efforts of those authors that the ontogeny of greater than 70% of species known from the western North Atlantic Ocean is now well described. Michael Fahay 241 Sabino Road West Bath, Maine 04530 U.S.A. vi Acknowledgements I greatly appreciate the help provided by a number of very knowledgeable friends and colleagues dur- ing the preparation of this monograph. Jon Hare undertook a painstakingly critical review of the entire monograph, corrected omissions, inconsistencies, and errors of fact, and made suggestions which markedly improved its organization and presentation. -

Itzkowitz, M. Haley, C. Otis, D. Evers Biology Department Lehigh University Bethlehem, PA, 18015 ABSTRACT: A submersible was used to make repetitive dives in Jamaica to depths of 2S m 50 m, and 100m. With increasing depth there was a decline in both species and the numbe; of individuals. The territorial damselfish and mixed-species groups of herbivorous fishes were conspicuously absent at 100m. Few unique species appeared with increasing depth and thus the deep community resembled depauperate versions of the shallower communities. Twelve species were shared between the 3 depths but there was no significant correlation in ranked relative abundance. -

Box 500, 21 000 Split, Croatia A total of 798 specimens of the painted comber, Serranus scriba (Linnaeus, 1758), were caught in Trogir Bay (eastern mid-Adriatic) from June 2001 to May 2002 and analyzed. Total length ranged 7.1-20.0 cm (mean 11.0±1.7 cm); body weight ranged 4.21-108.99 g (mean 18.59±10.248 g). Histological analysis of 242 specimens confirmed simultaneous hermaphroditism. The annual variation of gonadosomatic index indicates that S. scriba spawns from May to August. Descriptions based on microscopic examinations of ovarian and testicular tissues are given.

A5 By-catch Species APPENDIX 5: BY-CATCH SPECIES A.5 By-catch species By-catch is the unintentional/incidental capture of non-target species during fishing operations. Different types of fisheries have different types and levels of by-catch, depending on the gear used, the time, area and depth fished, etc. Article IV of the Convention states: "the Commission shall be responsible for the study of the population of tuna and tuna-like fishes (the Scombriformes with the exception of Trichiuridae and Gempylidae and the genus Scomber) and such other species of fishes exploited in tuna fishing in the Convention area as are not under investigation by another international fishery organization". The following is a list of by-catch species recorded as being ever caught by any major tuna fishery in the Atlantic/Mediterranean. Note that the lists are qualitative and are not indicative of quantity or mortality. Thus, the presence of a species in the lists does not imply that it is caught in significant quantities, or that individuals that are caught necessarily die.
