Beaufort Sea oily waste disposal sites : final report to Environment Canada, Conservation and Protection, Environmental Protection / prepared by DF Dickens Associates Ltd. in association with Terrain...: En14-287/1993E-PDF
"Since the start of offshore drilling in the Beaufort Sea over fifteen years ago, there has never been a clear guide to those sites which would be acceptable for the disposal of oily debris collected during the cleanup of a large accidental spill. The recent experiences with processing over 30,000 tons of solid waste in the aftermath to the Valdez spill focused attention on this critical and often overlooked aspect of spill response. Compared with Prince William Sound, the logistics options available in the Beaufort Sea are even more limited by the long distances and short shipping season. This project was initiated with the overall goal of recommending a small number of sites which could be considered for some form of pre-approvals to facilitate the process of disposal in the event of an oil spill emergency in the region"--Summary.
