Outer Continental Shelf oil and gas activities in the Mid-Atlantic and their onshore impacts: a summary report, November 1979
George S. Macpherson, Charles A. Bookman
1980, Open-File Report 80-17
Outer continental shelf (OCS) activity in the Mid-Atlantic Region to date has been limited to exploratory drilling. The first rig began drilling in March 1978. More rigs quickly moved into the Region, and as many as nine were working at the same time for a brief period in January 1979. As of November 1979,...

Probable high ground-water levels on Cape Cod, Massachusetts
Michael H. Frimpter
1980, Open-File Report 80-1008
Water-level records from 146 short-term (1 year) observation wells and 13 long-term (16-28 years) observation wells were used to estimate the probable high ground-water level that could occur at any site on Cape Cod. The estimation was based on correlation of a single water-level measurement from a test site with...

Competition and performance in OCS oil and gas lease sales and lease development, 1954-1969
Walter J. Mead, Philip Edward Sorensen
1980, Open-File Report 80-853
The oil and gas resources of the Outer Continental Shelf represent one of America's largest publicly-owned assets. Through 1978, OCS oil and gas leases had yielded \$40.5 billion in gross production value and produced over \$28.3 billion in direct revenue to the federal government.Policies and procedures for managing the oil...
Preliminary simulated tidal flow and circulation patterns in Hillsborough Bay, Florida

1980, Open-File Report 80-1021
The effect of channel dredging and island construction on tidal flow and circulation in Hillsborough Bay, Fla., due to the Tampa Harbor Deepening Project is being investigated using a two-dimensional, finite-difference numerical model. Preliminary model results are presented as a series of maps showing tidal flood, tidal ebb, and circulation...
