. Effects of noise of offshore oil and gas operations on marine mammals : an introductory assessment. Offshore oil industry; Gas well drilling; Noise pollution. Ray M. Barnds District Operations Manager Union Oil and Gas Division: Western Region Union Oil Company of California Southern California District 2151 Alessandro Drive Box 6176, Ventura, California 93006 Telephone (805) 659-0130 76 January 21, 1981 3^ ^ Q^ Ms. Ncei Davis, PhD Chambers Consultants and Planners P. 0, Box 356 Stanton, California 90680 Dear Ms. Davis: I have reviewed the information you have provided Mr. Ken Guziak to support your marine mammal monitoring program in the Santa Barbara Channel. In my judgment, the questionnaires, observation cards, and charts, while being excellently designed for a marine biologist or other skilled observer, are far too complicated to be effectively utilized during brief interview sessions on board the crew boat or at the Casitas Pier. To effectively carry out the apparent objectives of your program utilizing the materials provided Union Oil Company would require extensive training to develop observation skills clearly beyond the scope of casual sightings as they occur during normal daily produc- tion operations in the Dos Cuadras oil field. In view of the obvious cost to Union Oil Company in terms of man-hours, operational efficiency and potential liability as a result of dividing the platform operators' attention from their assigned work, I must decline to cooperate with your program. By copy of this letter, I am informing Mr. Michael F. Reitz, Acting District Supervisor of the Geological Survey, of this decision and suggest you contact his office for further suggestions as to appropriate methods to conduct the marine mammal monitoring program. Sincerely yours, RMB/bhs. iJ^^^J^ I- Michael F. Reitz R. W. Yarbrough R. C. Keller R. .A. Doinbrowski K. E. Guziak B-104.
