A Report on the Oiling to Environmentally Sensitive Shoreline, The Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Natural Resource Damage Assessment and Restoration

Alaska Department of Natural Resources and US Fish and Wildlife Service. 1993. A Report on the Oiling to Environmentally Sensitive Shoreline, The Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Natural Resource Damage Assessment and Restoration

Since the Exxon Valdez oil spill disaster of March 1989, much attention has been focused on the beaches of southcentral Alaska. This document reports the various levels of oiling to environmentally sensitive shoreline for the effected region as reported by surveys from March 1989 through June 1990. Technical Services Study Number 3 has developed customized geoprocessing techniques which derive lineal statistics for multiple shoreline data themes. These tables, and the electronic files which created them, may be used to partially fulfill the objectives of the Natural Resource Damage Assessment and Restoration Projects.
