This Archival Information Package (AIP) contains Environmental Resource Management Application (ERMA) GIS layers that represent sample locations for workplan cruises, deep-sea area injury toxicity results and total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (TPAH) results, habitat injury zones, footprint impacts on mesophotic reef resources and other types of benthic habitat data in response to the Mississippi Canyon 252 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Northern Gulf of Mexico. These data were used as part of the Programmatic Damage Assessment and Restoration Plan (PDARP).
