Effluent discharge was studied from fixed platform and other platforms from NW Atlantic (limit-40 w) for a period of three years. The trace metal concentrations were monitored in Outer Continental Shelf (OCS), George's Bank Sediments from May 29, 1980 to June 9, 1984 by Dr. Mike Bothner of United States Geological Survey (USGS), Woods Hole. Corrected originators data was received via George H. The data in originators file # 1 is miscellaneous grouping. File # 2 contains standard or regular analysis. File # 3 contains fine fraction analysis. The data is available in NODC F144-Marine Toxic Substances and Pollutants format.
