An oilspill risk analysis was conducted to determine relative environmental hazards of developing oil in different regions of the Western Gulf of Alaska Outer Continental Shelf lease area. The study analyzed probability of spill occurrence, likely path of pollutants from spills, and locations in space and time of recreational and biological resources likely to be vulnerable. These results are combined to yield estimates of the overall oilspill risk associated with development of the lease area. While the analysis includes estimates of weathering rates and slick dispersion, the methodology has not yet been developed to analyze the mitigating effects of cleanups which if taken into account would reduce the impact probabilities.

This report brings together available information on the occurrence, age, and paleoecologic, significance of benthonic foraminifers and presents correlations based on these data from 16 measured stratigraphic sections and 12 exploratory wells. Relatively few reports employing modern taxonomic methods developed during the past 40 years have been published on foraminiferal biostratigraphy of the Gulf of Alaska. Reports by Cushman (1941), Cushman and Todd (1947), Tappan (1951), Todd (1953), Loeblich and Tappan (1953), Todd (1957), Rau (1963), Cooper (1964), and Todd and Low (1967) are primarily concerned with taxonomy, ecology and paleoecology, or the geologic age of assemblages from isolated outcrops. Almost no data have been published on foraminiferal correlations of measured sections and wells. The paucity of such information has prompted the synthesis and interpretation of foraminiferal data that provide the framework of correlation presented in this report. Some of the benthonic provincial stages that have been assigned to lower and middle parts of the Tertiary of other west coast areas are recognized for the Gulf of Alaska. Divisions for the upper part of the Tertiary are broad, but specific faunal occurrences are recognized as possible aids to correlations. Regional correlations presented in this report are necessarily broad and may be modified and redefined when new data become available from the current round of exploratory drilling for petroleum in the offshore part of the Gulf of Alaska Tertiary Province.
It is anticipated that this report will be of particular interest to readers associated with petroleum exploration. As a convenience to them and because most foraminiferal data from wells, including those of this report, are from cuttings, all checklists are arranged to show plainly the highest occurrence of each species within each measured section and well. Furthermore, in conformity with these data, all sections and wells are described from the top to bottom. The text describes the stratigraphic and paleoecologic significance of foraminifers by biostratigraphic units and by individual sections and wells.

These units, defined on the basis of seismic and sedimentologic data, are: (1) Holocene sediments, (2) Holocene mind moraines, C3) Quaternary glacial marine sediments, and (4) Tertiary and Pleistocene lithified deposits.\r\n\r\nA wedge of Holocene fine sand to clayey silt covers most of the inner shelf, reaching maximum thicknesses of about 350 m seaward of the Copper River and about 200 m seaward of Icy Bay. Holocene end moraines are found at the mouth of Icy Bay, south of Bering Glacier, and at the mouth of Yakutat Bay. Quaternary glacial marine sediments are found in a narrow arc that borders, on the north and west side of Tart Bank and in a large arc 20 km or more offshore that parallels the shoreline between Kayak Island and Yakutat Bay. Tertiary or Pleistocene stratified sedimentary rocks, which in profile commonly are folded, faulted, and truncated, crop out on Tarr Bank, offshore of Montague Island, and in several localities southeast and southwest of Cape Yakataga. The lack of Holocene cover on Tarr Bank and Middleton, Kayak and Montague Island platforms may be due to the scouring action of swift bottom currents and large storm waves. \r\n\r\nWest of Kayak Island the Copper River is the primary source of Holocene sediment. East of Kayak Island the major sediment sources are streams draining the larger ice fields, notably, the Malaspina and Bering Glaciers. Transport of bottom and suspended sediment is predominantly to the west. If deglaciation of the shelf was completed by 10,000 years B.P., maximum rates of accumulation of Holocene sediment on the inner shelf may be as high as 10-35 m per 1,000 years.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/ofr7730","usgsCitation":"Molnia, B.F., 1977, Surface sedimentary units of the Gulf of Alaska continental shelf: Montague Island to Yakutat Bay: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 77-30, [1], 10, [11] leaves :ill., maps ;28 cm., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr7730.","productDescription":"[1], 10, [11] leaves :ill., maps ;28 cm.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":142321,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1977/0030/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":38214,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1977/0030/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4afce4b07f02db696454","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Molnia, Bruce F. bmolnia@usgs.gov","contributorId":4002,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Molnia","given":"Bruce","email":"bmolnia@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[{"id":410,"text":"National Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":161294,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":10352,"text":"ofr77428 - 1977 - Progress report on uranium investigations in the Zane Hills area, west-central Alaska","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2023-08-29T20:45:06.015711","indexId":"ofr77428","displayToPublicDate":"1994-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1977","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":330,"text":"Open-File Report","code":"OFR","onlineIssn":"2331-1258","printIssn":"0196-1497","active":true,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"77-428","title":"Progress report on uranium investigations in the Zane Hills area, west-central Alaska","docAbstract":"The Zane Hills pluton underlies a mountainous area of about 460 km2 in west-central Alaska and is locally enriched in uranium and thorium (Miller and Ferrians, 1968; Miller, 1970; Staatz and Miller, 1976).

Recently, however, anomalous amounts of uranium and thorium have been found by the Geological Survey in volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks near the headwaters of the West Fork of the Buckland River in the central Candle quadrangle (fig. 1). This occurrence is apparently in a different geologic environment than previously noted uranium occurrences in western Alaska. An increase in radioactivity was noted in this general area and three airborne gamma-ray survey traverses, done as part of an ERDA-sponsored reconnaissance survey of western Alaska, cross the area (figs. 1, 2) and confirm the existence of a radioactivity anomaly (U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration, 1975, report GJO-1653).

Results suggest that at least locally, sedimentary rocks of Tertiary age contain oil and gas source and reservoir rocks capable of generating and accumulating liquid and gas hydrocarbons. Paleogene strata rich in organic carbon are immature. However, strata in offshore basins to the north and south may have been subjected to a more productive thermal environment. Total organic carbon content of fine grained Neogene strata appears to be significantly lower than in Paleogene rocks, possibly reflecting nonmarine or brackish water environments of deposition. Neogene sandstone beds locally yield high values of porosity and permeability to depths of about 8,000 feet (2,439 m). Below this depth, reservoir potential rapidly declines. \r\n\r\nThe General Petroleum, Great Basins No. 1 well drilled along the shore of Bristol Bay reached granitic rocks. Other wells drilled closer to the axis of the present volcanic arc indicate that both Tertiary and Mesozoic sedimentary rocks have been intruded by dikes and sills of andesite and basalt. Although the Alaska Peninsula has been the locus of igneous activity throughout much of Mesozoic and Tertiary time, thermal maturity indicators such as vitrinite reflectance and coal rank suggest, that on a regional scale, sedimentary rocks have not been subjected to abnormally high geothermal gradients.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/ofr77813","usgsCitation":"McLean, H.J., 1977, Organic geochemistry, lithology, and paleontology of Tertiary and Mesozoic rocks from wells on the Alaska Peninsula: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 77-813, ii, 63 leaves :ill., maps ;28 cm.; (68 p. - PGS), https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr77813.","productDescription":"ii, 63 leaves :ill., maps ;28 cm.; (68 p. - PGS)","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":144065,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1977/0813/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":38143,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1977/0813/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4ae5e4b07f02db68ad48","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"McLean, Hugh James","contributorId":99559,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McLean","given":"Hugh","email":"","middleInitial":"James","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":161145,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":10158,"text":"ofr77672 - 1977 - Shelled benthic fauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2024-02-28T22:32:29.743817","indexId":"ofr77672","displayToPublicDate":"1994-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1977","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":330,"text":"Open-File Report","code":"OFR","onlineIssn":"2331-1258","printIssn":"0196-1497","active":true,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"77-672","title":"Shelled benthic fauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea","docAbstract":"The purposes of this study were to identify the benthic shelled infauna and epifauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea, compile species lists and distribution maps, determine recurrent groups of species (communities), and examine the environmental parameters that may control the distribution of the faunal groups. The study was partly supported by the Bureau of Land Management through an interagency agreement with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, under which a multi-year program responding to the needs of petroleum development of the Alaskan continental shelf is managed by the Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP) Office. The objective of this study is to provide an assessment of the biological patterns of the region as related to petroleum development. Future offshore oil leases proposed by the State of Alaska and the Federal Government require a biological data base from which impact statements can be derived.
Samples used in this report were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in August 1974 from the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Burton Island under the direction of Arthur Grantz. Sampling was conducted using van Veen grabs, gravity cores, dart cores, and bottom dredges. Only the van Veen grabs contained material useful for this study. At present 103 samples containing 90 species have been examined.

Where naleds occur, stream channels are wide and often form braided channels. Their distribution can be related to changes in stream gradient and to the occurrence of springs. Large naleds, such as on the Kongakut River, often remain through the summer melt season to form the nucleus of icing in the succeeding winter.
