This report presents information on the number and characteristics of individuals with disabilities and is based on data collected in wave 5 of the 2001 Panel of the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP).

This document summarizes an economic projection model is third in a series of investigations concerning the social and economic impacts of the Coastal Alabama offshore gas industry. In addition to Alabama, this forecast concerns the economies of Texas and Louisiana as well. The results are based off the results from the study "Economic Effects of Coastal Alabama and Destin Dome Offshore Natural Gas Exploration, Development and Production."

This report details the petroleum lease sales and development in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico (GOM) Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) through estimated physical and economic measures. Physical performance is measured in ways such as the prospectivity index, expeditious index, and development productivity. Economic performance is measured in ways such as a profitability index and internal rate of return.

This report is based on the needs of the National Marine Fisheries Service and Minerals Management Service to gain data about the Sperm Whale population, comparing the population in the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Twelve whales were tagged and observed to gather various types of data about their population and environment.

A report on the deepwater currents in the Eastern part of the Gulf of Mexico.

Report on a predictor model that determines the degradation rate of Synthetic-based fluids (SBF) from deep-sea drilling and assesses the impact of SBFs on the sediment microbial ecology in the Gulf of Mexico.

This survey report discusses deepwater projects centered in the Gulf Coast. Their study is interested in vendors or contractors supplying the equipment used on the deck and process in extracting oil. The authors are also interested in the socioeconomic effects of the oil extracting on local communities.

A report which provides an assessment of the effects of climate change on U.S. agriculture, land resources, water resources, and biodiversity.

A report detailing the effects of underwater operations on the deepwater environment.

This report summarizes NOAA's budget request for the 2010 fiscal year.

A report about climate change becoming a national security threat.

"The purpose of this alert is to introduce small and medium-sized facilities to a simple method developed by the Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS), to screen facilities for chemical reactivity hazards."

Offshore structures are required to be removed within a year after production ceases and recently the Minerals Management Service has asked for removal of structures no longer "economically viable." This paper seeks to identify the amount of idle iron that exists in the Gulf of Mexico as well as describe the geographic distribution and ownership patterns.

"This report reflects the advice and recommendations that resulted from pre-meeting preparations, on-site discussions, public comments, and subsequent analysis."

A study which looked at the OCS deepwater oil and gas exploitation in the Central Gulf of Mexico and its effect on Port Fourchon and the adjacent human community.

This guide provides step-by-step guidance for using the LandGEM software application, as well as an appendix containing background information on the technical basis of the software.

This report is to formalize the REA/MMS forecast models used in the Gulf Coast. With these models they forecast GOM infrastructure like number of exploratory wells and number of development wells.

This report summarizes the reauthorization act to provide for the conservation and management of the fisheries, and for other purposes.

This is a study on the possible effects of metals and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons elevated due to possible proximity to oil and gas production platforms.

The purpose of this report is to describe the operational aspects of removal processes in the GOM and to develop a production-based model to forecast the removal of offshore structures.

"This abridged report provides an overview of the first national summary of the status and trends of the habitats used by the living marine resources under the purview of NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)."

Report describing a study of the genotypes two plants (Spartina Patens and Spartina Alterniflora) that are tolerant to oil spills that have occurred in the coastal marshes of Louisiana. The research was to determine if these two plants could utilized for restoration and bioremediation of areas effected by oil spills. A plants tolerance to oil is determined by three factors: growth response and plant production, superior vegetative regrowth in soil effected by oil, and superior oil degradation potential.

Summary describing the work completed at Louisiana State University for 'A Socioeconomic Analysis of the Port Expansion at Port Fourchon'. It includes background information on the project funding and sponsorship, goals, methodology, and findings.
