Technical And Legal Considerations Immanent In The Disposal Of Commercial Nuclear Waste, Margaret D. Davidson Aug 1980

Technical And Legal Considerations Immanent In The Disposal Of Commercial Nuclear Waste, Margaret D. Davidson

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

There is, currently, a flurry of activity as the present Administration, along with the United States Department of Energy and the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, struggles to develop a comprehensive national program for the management and disposal of radioactive wastes. The first section of the paper deals with some of the inherent technical issues. This includes a review of the origin of nuclear wastes; the hazards of the wastes, including impacts upon the biological environment; and the extent of the state of the art for disposing of such wastes. The second section is an attempt to review the scope …

High Value Fishery: Vessel-Harvest Helicopter Landing, Roger F. Scott Apr 1980

High Value Fishery: Vessel-Harvest Helicopter Landing, Roger F. Scott

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

The purpose of this paper is to examine the feasibility of using helicopters to move high value fish from the offshore fishing fleet at sea, to market distribution locations. To accomplish this purpose, data was collected on the high value swordfish species, ex-vessel, $1.50 per pound, and used to compare three basic options. Two Sikorsky helicopters were considered in the options tested; the light lift S58T, and the medium lift S61. The data shows the S58T to dominate the S61 in all comparisons. An underlying assumption of the analysis is that the fish landed by helicopter will demand a premium …


An Investigation Into A New England Fisheries Development Project: Towards The Expansion Of The Whiting Fishery, J. H. Kaelin Apr 1980

An Investigation Into A New England Fisheries Development Project: Towards The Expansion Of The Whiting Fishery, J. H. Kaelin

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

In 1973, the New England Fishery Development Program (NEFDP), an industry/government partnership was formed to offset a portion of the economic decline of the New England fishing industry while encouraging the development of underutilized species and nontraditional fishery products. The purpose of this paper is to examine one of the NEFDP's development projects and to comment on its apparent success. This paper attempts to determine if domestic processors can be expected to produce whiting fillet blocks that can compete in the market place with foreign imports. Several aspects of the problem are favorably resolved-an abundant whiting resource is available; the …

The Malaysian Fishing Gears And Methods, Mohamed Ibrahim Bin Haji Mohamed Jan 1980

The Malaysian Fishing Gears And Methods, Mohamed Ibrahim Bin Haji Mohamed

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

There are more than 40 types of fishing gears operated in Malaysia. These gears are classified locally into 11 gear groups based on their principles of operation. These gears have never been fully documented. This investigation attempts to document all the commercially important fishing gears in the country, the technical specifications, methods of operation, identify spacial differences in gears, operation and review the share/lay system operated in the industry.


Oil And Gas Development On Georges Bank: The Responsibility Of Federal Agencies For Assessment And Mitigation Of Potential Impacts On The Ecosystem, Carolyn A. Griswold Jan 1980

Oil And Gas Development On Georges Bank: The Responsibility Of Federal Agencies For Assessment And Mitigation Of Potential Impacts On The Ecosystem, Carolyn A. Griswold

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

Is it possible to provide adequate protection for the Georges Bank ecosystem as oil and gas exploration begins? The fishing industry and environmentalists say "no," but it is the resource managers who are faced with the task of predicting, assessing and mitigating impacts of development while at the same time managing resources and protecting fishery habitats. Much of this responsibility falls within NOAA; however, legislative mandates and agency responsibilities and goals mean that several other federal agencies are involved as well. This paper is an attempt to describe the potential impacts of oil and gas exploration on the Georges Bank …


The Feasibility Of Increased Utilization Of The Georges Bank Herring Stock, Carder Starr Jan 1980

The Feasibility Of Increased Utilization Of The Georges Bank Herring Stock, Carder Starr

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

The United States has embarked upon a new era of commercial fisheries management and development with the enactment of the Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1976 (FCMA). The primary objectives of the FCMA are "to take immediate action to conserve and manage the fishery resources found off the coasts of the U.S." and "to encourage the development of fisheries which are currently underutilized...by the U.S. fishing industry...." One of these underutilized stocks is the Georges Bank herring stock. This study hopes to show that the operation of a fish-processing vessel can be a feasible enterprise with good returns to …


The Impact Of Extended Jurisdiction To 200 Nautical Miles On The Development And Management Of Fisheries In Western Samoa, Fili Suafoa Jan 1980

The Impact Of Extended Jurisdiction To 200 Nautical Miles On The Development And Management Of Fisheries In Western Samoa, Fili Suafoa

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

The consequences of the inevitable acceptance of extended jurisdiction and its impact on the development and management of fisheries in Western Samoa are considered within the framework of the principles outlined at the United Nations Third Conference of the Law of the Sea - Revised Informal Composite Negotiating Text for the Eighth Session 1979. It is pointed out that with the passage of the 200-mile exclusive economic zone, Western Samoa not only has the opportunity to benefit from the harvesting of fish under its jurisdiction, but also must accept the responsibility of ensuring that the resource is rationally managed, and …


The Feasibility Of Processing Fish Aboard The F/V Friesland, Thomas Dykstra Jan 1980

The Feasibility Of Processing Fish Aboard The F/V Friesland, Thomas Dykstra

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

Many social, economic and regulatory changes have been occurring in the New England fishing industry over the past few years. These changes demand responses from the individual industry participants. The purpose of this paper is to look at the feasibility of processing onboard the F/V Friesland, as an individual response, in an effort to increase the ex-vessel price of fish resulting in the maintenance of a gross stock and a life style. The F/V Friesland, built in 1978, is an 87 foot stern trawler which participates in the mixed species groundfshery of New England out of the port of Pt. …

The Effects Of Cis-Chlordane And Dieldrin On The Short Food Chain: Artemia To Winter Flounder, Scott Mclean Jan 1980

The Effects Of Cis-Chlordane And Dieldrin On The Short Food Chain: Artemia To Winter Flounder, Scott Mclean

Open Access Master's Theses

Live Artemis sp. nauplii were contaminated with the pesticides cis-chlordane and dieldrin singly and in combination at two concentrations. The bioconcentration factors were 88.29 ± 13.09 and 128.03 ± 24.78, for cis-chlordane and dieldrin, respectively. Winter flounder, Pseudopleuronectes americanus, post-larvae, fed the contaminated nauplii accumulated the pesticides. The resulting bioaccumulation factors were 0.67 ± 0.33 for cis-chlordane and 0.38 ± 0.16 dieldrin. Metabolism of cis-chlordane by the Artemia sp. is indicated by the presence of oxychlordane. However, metabolism of dieldrin in the Artemia sp. is not clearly implied. Cis-chlordane was only metabolized in the winter flounder …
