EC-FT-00012 Labrador Shelf Seismic Program – Environmental Assessment Executive Summary Husky Energy proposes to undertake 2-D and 3-D seismic and follow-up geo-hazard surveys on its exploration acreage (Exploration Licenses 1106 and 1108) on the Labrador Shelf. Husky foresees the potential for a 2-D seismic survey in the summer of 2010, while other surveys – 2- D, 3-D or geo-hazard and Vertical Seismic Profiles – may occur at various times between 2010 and 2017. This document provides a Screening Level Environmental Assessment to allow the Canada- Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board (C-NLOPB) to fulfill its responsibilities under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act. During the course of the environmental assessment, Husky Energy consulted with stakeholders with an interest in the Project. Husky Energy and consultants undertook a consultation program with the interested stakeholders in Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Nain, Rigolet, Postville, Hopedale, Cartwright, Makkovik and Sheshatshiu, as well as consultation with regulatory agencies and other stakeholders in St. John‟s. As per the Scoping Document issued by the C-NLOPB, the valued ecosystem components (VECs) include Species at Risk (both those listed under the Species at Risk Act Schedule 1 and under consideration by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada), Marine Fish and Fish Habitat, Marine Mammals and Sea Turtles, Marine Birds, Commercial Fisheries and Sensitive Areas. The biological environment is described in terms of these six VECs. The physical environment is also described, including the metocean conditions and sea ice and icebergs. The existing environment descriptions draw heavily on the Labrador Shelf Strategic Environmental Assessment (Sikumiut 2008), with information updated where more recent data exist. Environmental management measures (i.e., mitigative measures) include a Marine Mammal Observer(s) (MMO(s)) on board the vessel(s) to provide proper identification of marine mammals and species at risk for mitigation purposes and to collect opportunistic data on marine mammal behaviours and distribution with and without air guns operating. Seabird observations will also be collected. In addition, mitigation measures will be applied as set out in the “Geophysical, Geological, Environmental and Geotechnical Program Guidelines” (C-NLOPB 2008), which incorporates verbatim the Statement of Canadian Practice on Mitigation of Seismic Noise in the Marine Environment. Plans will be developed to avoid or lessen any potential effects on the commercial fishery. These plans will include elements such as good communications (e.g., fishery broadcast notifications and Notices to Shipping), a dedicated Fisheries Liaison Officer (FLO) on the vessel(s), a Single Point of Contact, use of a picket vessel, avoidance of areas during times of heavy fixed gear use, and a fishing gear damage compensation program. With the application of mitigative measures, this environmental assessment predicts that potential adverse environmental effects on the above VECs will be of low magnitude, short duration and range from localized to regional in extent. The extent of potential physically harmful sound levels occurs within approximately 1 m of the air gun source. Potential cumulative environmental effects external to the Project include seismic program(s) by other operators, commercial and traditional fishing, marine transportation and tourism/recreation. The potential exists that the other seismic survey(s) could occur concurrently, resulting in a temporal overlap with the Project (there would be no immediate EC-HSE-SY-0003 Page i of xv Labrador Shelf Seismic Program – Environmental Assessment spatial overlap as there must be enough distance between streamers as to avoid interfering with data acquisition by individual vessels); therefore, there is some potential for cumulative environmental effects with the Project in this context. As access of non-Project vessels within close proximity the source vessel will be restricted during the seismic survey, the residual cumulative environmental effect with noise and traffic external to the Project will be negligible. Compared to existing vessel traffic in the area, the incremental amount of vessel traffic as a result of this Project will be negligible. Cumulative environmental effects resulting from any of the Project activities will not be additive or cumulative because the Project activities are transitory. With the implementation of mitigative measures and the limited spatial (and potentially temporal – if the programs are not run concurrently) overlap with other projects and activities, the residual cumulative environmental effect of the Project in conjunction with other projects and activities is predicted to be not significant. The potential of accidental events is limited to release of the flotation fluid (unless solid core streamers are used), or a diesel spill in the unlikely events of a seismic vessel sinking or a collision with another vessel. Given how unlikely these events are, and the mitigative measures that will be applied to the Project (including an FLO, on-board spill response plan and equipment), the residual environmental effect of an accident or malfunction is predicted to be not significant. As noted previously, MMO(s) will be on board the vessel(s) to provide identification of marine mammals and sea turtles (including species at risk) for mitigation purposes and to collect opportunistic data on marine mammal behaviours and distribution with and without air guns operating. Seabird observations will also be conducted. The observer will report any dead birds on board the vessel. As well, routine checks will be done for stranded birds that may have been attracted to vessel lighting. Any dead birds will be handled and documented as per a required Bird Salvage Permit and Husky‟s procedures on this topic that are on file with the C-NLOPB. Given the application of planned mitigative measures, significant adverse environmental effects, including cumulative environmental effects, are not predicted to result from the Project. Residual Adverse Probability of Level of VEC Environmental Effect Occurrence Confidence Rating (Likelihood) Species at Risk Not Significant Moderate na Marine Fish Not Significant High na Marine Mammals and Sea Turtles Not Significant High na Marine Birds Not Significant High na Commercial Fisheries Not Significant High na Sensitive Areas Not Significant High na na = likelihood is only indicated for those VECs that have a significant residual adverse environmental effect rating.

Gage, <[email protected]> Scottish Association for Marine Science, Dunstaffnage Marine Laboratory, Oban, PA37 1QA http://www.sams.ac.uk 1 Definition of SEA 7 area The DTI SEA 7 area is defined in Contract No. SEA678_data-03, Section IV – Scope of Services (p31) as UTM projection Zone 30 using ED50 datum and Clarke 1866 projection. The SEA 7 area, indicated on the chart page 34 in Section IV Scope of Services, shows the SEA 7 area to include only the western part of UTM zone 30. This marine part of zone 30 includes the West Coast of Scotland from the latitude of the south tip of the Isle of Man to Cape Wrath. Most of the SEA 7 area indicated as the shaded area of the chart labelled ‘SEA 7’ lies to the west of the ‘Thunderer’ line of longitude (6°W) and includes parts of zones 27, 28 and 29. The industry- adopted convention for these zones west of the ‘Thunderer’ line is the ETRF89 datum. The authors assume that the area for which information is required is as indicated on the chart in Appendix 1 SEA678 areas, page 34, i.e. the west (marine part) of zone 30 and the shaded parts of zones 27, 28 and 29. The Irish Sea boundary between SEA 6 & 7 is taken as from Carlingford Lough to the Isle of Man, then clockwise around the Isle of Man, then north to the Scottish coast around Dumfries.

  • Decapoda (Crustacea) of the Gulf of Mexico, with Comments on the Amphionidacea
    •59 Decapoda (Crustacea) of the Gulf of Mexico, with Comments on the Amphionidacea Darryl L. Felder, Fernando Álvarez, Joseph W. Goy, and Rafael Lemaitre The decapod crustaceans are primarily marine in terms of abundance and diversity, although they include a variety of well- known freshwater and even some semiterrestrial forms. Some species move between marine and freshwater environments, and large populations thrive in oligohaline estuaries of the Gulf of Mexico (GMx). Yet the group also ranges in abundance onto continental shelves, slopes, and even the deepest basin floors in this and other ocean envi- ronments. Especially diverse are the decapod crustacean assemblages of tropical shallow waters, including those of seagrass beds, shell or rubble substrates, and hard sub- strates such as coral reefs. They may live burrowed within varied substrates, wander over the surfaces, or live in some Decapoda. After Faxon 1895. special association with diverse bottom features and host biota.

Historical.—The great majority of the larger and more familiar Crustacea belong to the Decapoda, and this Order received far more attention from the older naturalists than any of the others. A considerable number of species are mentioned by Aristotle, who describes various points of their anatomy and habits with accuracy, and sometimes with surprising detail. A long series of purely descriptive writers who have added to the number of known forms without contributing much to a scientific knowledge of them begins with Belon and Eondelet in the sixteenth century, and perhaps does not altogether come to an end with Herbst's Naturgeschichte der Krabben und Krebse (1782-180-i). Among the most noteworthy of early contributions to anatomy are Swammerdam's memoir on the Hermit-Crab (1737), and that of Eoesel von Rosenhof on the Crayfish (1755).

  • Hyperparasitism of the Cryptoniscid Isopod Liriopsis Pygmaea on the Lithodid Paralomis Granulosa from the Beagle Channel, Argentina
    DISEASES OF AQUATIC ORGANISMS Vol. 58: 71–77, 2004 Published January 28 Dis Aquat Org Hyperparasitism of the cryptoniscid isopod Liriopsis pygmaea on the lithodid Paralomis granulosa from the Beagle Channel, Argentina Gustavo A. Lovrich1,*, Daniel Roccatagliata2, Laura Peresan2 1Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas, Centro Austral de Investigaciones Científicas (CADIC) CC 92, V9410BFD Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina 2Departamento de Biodiversidad y Biología Experimental, Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Ciudad Universitaria, C1428EHA Buenos Aires, Argentina ABSTRACT: A total of 29 570 false king crab Paralomis granulosa were sampled from the Beagle Channel (54° 51’ S, 68° 12’ W), Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, between July 1996 and August 1998. Crab size varied from 6.8 to 111.2 mm carapace length (CL). A few crabs parasitized by the rhizo- cephalan Briarosaccus callosus were found; prevalences of externae (the rhizocephalan reproductive body) and scars (the mark left on the host after the death of the parasite) were 0.28 and 0.16%, re- spectively. Of 85 externae examined, 55 were non-ovigerous and 30 ovigerous. The cryptoniscid iso- pod Liriopsis pygmaea infested 36.5% of the B. callosus examined. The most abundant stage was the cryptonicus larva, accounting for 208 of the 238 L. pygmaea recovered. Cryptonisci showed a highly aggregated distribution. A total of 92.7% of cryptonicsci were recovered inside empty externae, sug- gesting that the latter were attractive to cryptonisci. Early subadult females of L. pygmaea were rare; only 3 individuals occurred inside 1 ovigerous externa. Eight late subadult and 18 adult females were found on 3 and 7 non-ovigerous externae, respectively; in addition, 1 aberrant late subadult was found on 1 ovigerous externa.
