Technical Report · Wed Aug 01 04:00:00 EDT 1979

OSTI ID:5410290

Oil and gas pipeline activities within the coastal zone bordering on the north central and western Gulf of Mexico affect a wide range of living and nonliving environmental variables (i.e., aesthetic and recreation, laminar and sheet drainage, unique habitats, and community and ecosystem dynamics). These industrial activities have been increasing steadily by increments over the past 30 years. Much of the information included herein pertains to a description of the existing environment for the coastal zones of Louisiana and Texas and a brief analysis of potential pipeline proposals and alternatives.
