Oil spills, 1971-75, Gulf of Mexico outer continental shelf
Elmer P. Danenberger
1976, Circular 741
Oil spillage connected with federally supervised drilling and production activities has been a matter of wide public concern. In its supervision of mineral-resource development on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS), the U.S. Geological Survey is responsible for the day-to-day inspection and monitoring of OCS oil and gas operations. During these...
