Offshore oil and gas drilling operations take place in some of the world's most biologically productive oceanic waters. An ongoing concern related to the development of this industry is that exposure to contaminants from waste discharges may cause ill effects on organisms and their habitat. Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) programs are undertaken to verify environmental impact assessment predictions, to detect any unforeseen effects, and to help identify cause-effect relationships. EEM has been carried out worldwide for many offshore developments, and much has been learned about the fate of drilling and production contaminants and their biological effects. EEM programs have rapidly evolved in response to new knowledge on the transport, fate, and effects of potential contaminants; changes in regulatory requirements; and improved impact assessment technologies and statistical approaches for data interpretation. In May 2003, an international group of scientists, environmental managers, and industry representatives shared their expertise and new knowledge at the Offshore Oil and Gas Environmental Effects Monitoring Workshop. The participants reviewed the status of current offshore oil and gas EEM programs and identified future research needs to advance our understanding of the impacts of the offshore oil and gas industry. This book represents a selected number of peer-reviewed papers from workshop participants, covering a range of topics including regional experience from past and ongoing EEM programs; environmental management issues such as risk assessment and decision-making processes; the development of predictive risk assessment models; and new approaches and technologies formonitoring potential alterations in benthic, pelagic, and tropospheric ecosystem components. This book will be of use to scientists, environmental managers, regulators, and industry representatives, as well as members of the general public wishing to improve their understanding on the application of offshore oil and gas EEM programs for the protection of our ocean environment and its resources.

The national Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) program requires Canada's 126 pulp and paper mills to conduct regular studies on their receiving environments in order to assess and monitor effects potentially caused by the mills' effluent. This report provides an overview and summary of results from Cycle 2 of the program, which included the following components: fish population survey to assess the health of fish; benthic invertebrate community survey as an assessment of fish habitat; study of dioxins and furans in edible fish tissue and tainting study as assessments of the usability of fisheries resources; sublethal toxicity testing to assess effluent quality.

This document provides information on recommended methodologies & options for carrying out environmental effects monitoring (EEM) studies, a requirement of the Metal Mining Effluent Regulations under the authority of the Fisheries Act. The introduction reviews the regulatory framework and the components of the national EEM program. Chapter 2 describes the design of an EEM study. Subsequent chapters explain the requirements for studies related to site characterization, fish monitoring, benthic community monitoring, effluent characterization, water quality monitoring, sub-lethal toxicity testing, sediment monitoring, data assessment & interpretation, information management, and alternative methods for biological monitoring.

The purpose of this report is to summarize the results of Cycle 1 of the pulp and paper Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) program and discuss the modifications made to the EEM program based on these results. Results are presented for each of the following components of the program: fish survey; benthic invertebrate community survey; tissue analyses for dioxins and furans; tainting evaluation; sublethal toxicity testing; chemical tracers.

In Canada, pulp & paper mills in Canada are required to conduct environmental effects monitoring (EEM) under the federal Fisheries Act in order to determine any environmental concerns related to fish, fish habitat, or utilization of the fisheries resource. At some mill sites, fish & benthic invertebrate community monitoring studies may not be appropriate due to such factors as hazardous conditions or the presence of confounding substances. This chapter provides details on two alternative monitoring methods: the use of artificial stream systems or mesocosms, and the use of caged bivalves. Topics covered include the applicability of these methods within EEM programs, the characteristics of the technology involved, site selection, species selection, data assessment & interpretation, variables to be measured, and reporting.

Amendments to the Fisheries Act included a provision for environmental effects monitoring at pulp & paper mills in Canada in order to determine if there were environmental concerns related to fish, fish habitat, or utilization of the fisheries resource. Reports from the first cycle of monitoring were submitted in 1996. This report reviews the results of the benthic invertebrate community survey component of the first cycle of this environmental monitoring program, in which 134 mills were sampled to examine the benthic invertebrate communities downstream. It discusses problematic issues revealed in this cycle, including factors that confound the interpretation of data collected, and the adequacy of statistical analysis of the data. Recommendations are made for the next cycle of monitoring with regard to research needs. A decision tree developed to assist in designing cycle 2 studies is provided.
