Operation Clean Feather: reducing oil pollution in Newfoundland waters / by John W. Chardine and Gordon Pelly. Issued by the Atlantic Region.: CW69-5/198E
In an effort to reduce the chronic discharge of waste oil into Placentia Bay, and thus the incidence of bird oiling, Operation Clean Feather was mounted. The operation ran for three months (January-March) in 1991 and 1992 and consisted of (1) weekly surveys of Placentia Bay beaches, (2) sampling of oil from vessels using the bay, and from oiled birds and beaches, (3) ground and aerial surveillance, (4) a communications programs, and (5) experimentation to determine possible recovery rates of birds oiled at sea.--Summary
