Introduction.—Undulations of the surface of the water, called waves, are perhaps the most widely observed phenomenon at sea, and possibly the least under- stood by the average seaman. The mariner equipped with a knowledge of the basic facts concerning waves is able to use them to his advantage, and either avoid hazardous conditions or operate with a minimum of danger if such conditions cannot be avoided. 3302. Causes of waves.—Waves on the surface of the sea are caused principally by wind, but other factors, such as submarine earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the tide, also cause waves. If a breeze of less than 2 knots starts to blow across smooth water, small wavelets called ripples form almost instantaneously. When the breeze dies, the ripples disappear as suddenly as they formed, the level surface • being restored by surface tension of the water. If the wind speed exceeds 2 knots, more stable gravity waves gradually form, and progress with the wind. While the generating wind blows, the resulting waves may be referred to as sea. When the wind stops or changes direction, the waves that continue on without relation to local winds are called swell. Unlike wind and current, waves are not deflected appreciably by the rotation of • the earth, but move in the direction in which the generating wind blows. When this wind ceases, friction and spreading cause the waves to be reduced in height, or attenuated, as they move across the surface. However, the reduction takes place so slowly that swell continues until it reaches some obstruction, such as a shore. The Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center, Monterey, California, produces synoptic analyses and predictions of ocean wave heights using a spectral numerical • model. The wave information consists of heights and directions for different periods and wavelengths. The model generates and propagates wave energy. Verification ; has been very good. -Information from the model is provided to the U.S. Navy on a .' routine basis and is a vital input to the Optimum Track Ship Routing program (ch... XXIV). 3303. Wave characteristics.—Ocean waves are very nearly in the shape of ant , • inverted cycloid, the figure formed by a point inside the rim of a wheel rolling' along a level surface. This shape is shown in figure 3303a. The highest parts oft waves are called crests, and the intervening lowest parts, troughs. Since the crests are steeper and narrower than the troughs, the mean or still water level is a little:: lower than halfway between the crests and troughs. The vertical distance between trough and crest is called wave height, labeled H in figure 3303a. The horizontal_-" • distance between successive crests, measured in the direction of travel, is called wavelength, labeled L. The time interval between passage of successive crests at a:" stationary point is called wave period (P). Wave height, length, and period depend-. upon a number of factors, such as the wind speed, the length of time it has blown,. . and its fetch' (the straight distance it has traveled over the surface). Table 3303. indicates the relationsh4 between wind speed, fetch, length of time the wind blows, • wave height, and wave period in deep water.

If the water is deeper than one-half the wavelength (L), this length in feet is - theoretically related to period (P) in seconds by the formula L='5.121"2. The actual value has been found to be a little less than this for swell, and about two-thirds the length determined by this formula for sea. When the waves leave the generating area and continue as free waves, the wavelength and period continue to * increase, while the height decreases. The rate of change gradually decreases. The speed (S) of a free wave in deep water is nearly independent of its height or steepness. For swell, its relationship in knots to the period (P) in seconds is given by the formula S=3.03P. • • FIL • 0 The relationship for sea is not known. The theoretical relationship between speed, wavelength, and period is shown in figure 3303b. As waves continue on beyond the generating area, the period, wave- length, and speed remains the same. Because the waves of each period have differ- ent speeds they tend to sort themselves by periods as they move away from the generating area. The longer period waves move at a greater speed and move ahead. At great enough distances from a storm area the waves will have sorted themselves into packets based on period. 60 sc la 00 200 400 600 600 1000 1200 1400 UNGTM (LI FEET FIGURE 3303b.—Relationship between speed, len gth, and period of waves in deep water, based upon the theoretical relationship between period and length. ,M ■■ MMMMMMM��MM ■ ■■■ ■MMMMwPM ■MM ■MMMMMMMME'®MMM■ ■ ■M■MMMMdFMMMMMMM■MMM■ ■ =MMM�M ■■■.MM■M■■■■■■�■ ■■�E■■■M■ ■■■■■■■■ ■RI■■■■M■ ■■M■ ■■■ EMM ■■M■■.■M M■■ MMMM ■■■.■■■M■■■■ E■■■■■M■■■■.E■■■■ 00 200 400 600 600 1000 1200 1400 UNGTM (LI FEET FIGURE 3303b.—Relationship between speed, len gth, and period of waves in deep water, based upon the theoretical relationship between period and length. 0 OCEAN WAVES 40 All the waves. are. attenuated as they propagate bfit the short period waves attenuate faster so that at a long distance from a storm only the longer waves remain. . The time needed for a wave system to travel some distance is double that which ..would be indicated by the speed of individual waves. This is because the front wave gradually disappears and transfers its energy to succeeding waves. The process is followed by each front wave in succession, at such a rate that the wave system advances at a speed which is just half that of individual waves. This process can be seen in the bow wave of a vessel. The speed at which the wave system advances is called group velocity. Because of the existence of many independent wave systems at the same time, the sea surface acquires a complex and irregular pattern. Also, since the longer waves outrun the shorter ones, the resulting interference adds to the complexity of the pattern. The process of interference, illustrated in figure 3303c, is duplicated many times in the sea, being the principal reason that successive waves are not of the same height. The irregularity of the surface may be further accentuated by the presence of wave systems crossing at an angle to each other, producing peak -like rises. \-/ V V V /0000• haum 3303c.—Interference.

In reporting average wave heights, the mariner has a tendency to neglect the lower ones. It has been found that the reported value is about the average for the highest one-third. This is' sometimes called the "significant" wave height. The approximate relationship between this height and others, is as follows: Wave Relative height Average 0.64 Significant 1.00 Highest 10 percent 1.29 Highest 1.87 3304. Path of water particles in a wave.—As shown in figure 3304, a particle of water on the surface of the ocean follows a somewhat circular orbit as a wave passes, but moves very little in the direction of motion pf the wave. The common wave producing this action is called an oscillatory wave. As the crest passes, the 0 • OCEAN WAVES r' particle moves forward, giving the water the appearance of moving with the wave. As the trough passes, the motion is in the opposite direction. The radius of the circular orbit decreases with depth, approaching aero at a depth equal to about half the wavelength. In shallower water the orbits become more elliptical, and in very shallow water, as. at a beach, the vertical motion disappears almost completely. Since .the speed is greater at the top of the orbit than at the bottom, the • particle is not at .exactly its original point following passage of a wave, but has moved slightly in the direction of motion of the wave. However, since this advance is small in relation to the vertical displacement, a floating object is raised and lowered by passage of a wave, but moved little from its original position. If this were not so, a slow moving vessel might experience considerable difficulty in making way against a wave train. In figure 3304 the forward displacement is • greatly exaggerated. 3303. Effects of currents on waves.—A following current increases wavelengths and decreases wave heights. An opposing current has the opposite effect, decreasing the length and increasing the height. A strong opposing current may cause the waves to break. The extent of wave alteration is dependent upon the ratio of the still -water wave speed to the speed of the current. • Moderate ocean currents running at oblique angles to wave directions appear to have little effect, but strong tidal currents perpendicular to a system of waves have been observed to completely destroy them in .a short period of time. 3306. The effect of ice on waves.—When ice crystals form in seawater, internal friction is greatly increased. This results in smoothing of the sea surface. The effect • of pack ice is. even more pronounced. A vessel following a lead through such ice may be in smooth water even when a gale is blowing and heavy seas are beating against the outer edge of the pack. Hail is also effective in flattening the sea, even in a high wind. 3307. Waves and shallow water.—When a wave encounters shallow water, the movement of the individual particles of water is restricted by the bottom, resulting in reduced wave speed. In deep water wave speed is a function of period. In shallow water, the wave speed becomes a function of depth. The shallower the water the slower is the wave speed. As the wave speed slows, the period remains the same so the wavelength becomes shorter. Since the energy in the waves remains the same, the shortening of wavelengths results in increased heights. This process is called shoaling. If the wave approaches the shoal at an angle, each part is slowed succes- sively as the depth decreases. This causes a change in direction of motion or refraction, the wave tending to become parallel to the depth curves. The effect is similar to the refraction of light and other forms of radiant energy (art. 1606). As each wave slows, the next wave behind it, in deeper water, tends to catch up. As the wavelength decreases, the height generally becomes greater. The lower part of a wave, being nearest the bottom, is slowed more than the top. This may • cause the wave to become unstable, the faster -moving top falling or breaking. Such a wave is called a breaker, and a series of breakers, surf. This subject is covered in greater detail in chapter XXXIV. Swell passing over a shoal but not breaking undergoes a decrease in wave- length and speed, and an increase in height. Such ground swell may cause heavy rolling if it is on the beam and its period is the same as the "period of roll of a vessel, even though the 'sea'may appear relatively calm.

Energy of waves.—The potential energy of a wave is related to the vertical distance of each particle from its still -water position, and therefore moves with the wave. In contrast, the kinetic energy of a wave is related to the speed of the particles, being distributed evenly along the entire wave. The amount of kinetic energy in even a moderate wave is tremendous. A 4 -foot, 10 -second wave striking a coast expends more than 35,000 horsepower per mile of beach. For each 56 miles of coast, the energy expended equals the power generated at Hoover Dam. An increase in temperature of the water in the relatively narrow surf zone in which this energy is expended would seem to be indicated, but no pronounced increase has been measured. Apparently, any heat that may be gener- ated is dissipated to the deeper water beyond the surf zone. 0 u • 0 9 0 APPENDIX D. • WIND AND WAVE DATA 1956-1975 0 U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS • • C • • Plate 2.

The following drawings and diagrams describe the proposed installation of fish pens at Gardener Bay, Plum Island, New York. Although the Ocean Spar fish pen system has a variety of arrangements and sizes to which it can be configured, the ones shown appear to have advantages in terms of performance and cost for the proposed mariculture operations. They therefore represent the present "best configuration", but may evolve in configuration, size and detail as each phase of the project is completed. 41 In Ocean Spar Net Pen Configurations. For simplicity, a single pen configuration is shown in drawing 1, although the minimum system appears to be a pair of pens as shown in drawing 2. The salient features include 4 spar buoys, a net pen, the rigging and the anchors. The depth is shown to be typical with * the understanding that the actual depth at the site varies. Where the depths might be deeper, the only changes in configuration will occur in the anchor line lengths. In those locations where the depths are shallower, the anchor line lengths will change and the depth of the net pen will decrease to keep a minimum clearance of 20 ft between the bottom of the fish pen and the ocean bottom. As the project progresses and fish pens are added in a linear fashion, all but the end spars will be used in common by two net pens. This arrangement will be followed until the number of pens reaches the maximum of seven. Some characteristics of the site may require that the pen arrays have less than the maximum of seven. As an example, bottom characteristics or the logistics of transport may put- special constraints on the configurations. For those pens located on the perimeter of the site, more than a single anchor may be attached to a single spar buoy if the exposure and subsequent forces require it. The net pens are not necessary to keep the spar buoys in the defined patterns. They can • be disconnected from the spar buoys and transported for replacement, repair or for other purposes requiring removal. In this case the spar buoys and remaining rigging can stay in place indefinitely and will be capable of withstanding any of the expected weather conditions. Figure 3 illustrates one tactic of concentrating fish for harvest. The drawing shows the bottom of the net pen being lifted during a harvest session. This is one of many techniques that is available for harvesting from these pens, and although it is practical and workable is not necessarily the most efficient. Among these are the use of special seines and traps which stress the fish less. 7 i IIn Phases installation of Ocean Spar net pens. w Drawings 4, 5 and 6 show the proposed phased installation of net pens. The arrangement is meant to be illustrative rather than definitive, since experience will dictate which portion of the site will be developed first. For clarity the details of the net pen arrays have been reduced to a minimum, showing only 4 of the 20 possible anchors for each. The net pen array has been chosen to allow adequate channels for boats to traverse between the pens • and also adequate distances to perform any of the daily operations that might be necessary. To be specific, between each 7 net array of fish pens there is an 100 ft channel, whereas around the ends of the array there is an 136 ft channel. The dense array of fish pens located on the site will provide for some significant attenuation of water conditions during periods of high winds and high currents. Each fish pen will reduce the water current behind it, and it is expected that the shorter waves will be somewhat attenuated by the time they reach the pens closer to shore. IV) Site conditions and anchoring. 0 The expected and measured wave and current environment at the site, present no problem for the Ocean Spar net pens since the system has been thoroughly tested over long periods of time at sites that have extremes of current (2.5 knots at 10M depth) and waves of 7M significant waves. All of the hardware necessary for these conditions was designed into the system. Severe winds present no serious problem to the Ocean Spar net pens since very little of the pen is above the surface and the only exposed hardware is the spar buoys themselves. The same holds true for icing. Icing load will accumulate on the spars and the net pen. The additional weight will cause the net to sag until the ice is buoyed by the water surface. Since the Ocean Spar net pens are tension structures the anchors are very important. Where possible we will use helix anchors driven to a maximum depth of 20 ft. In the perimeter areas double or tandem anchors will be specified where necessary. During all phases of the project, anchors and rigging equipment will be installed adequate to supporting the full 7 pen array. All anchor lines will be SAMSON@ Duralon (polyester) rope and all hardware fitting will be "Ocean Secure". Since structural continuity of loads from the nets to the anchors is absolutely necessary, all components are selected to withstand the design loads with an adequate safety factor based upon the expected service and experience. All fittings and procedures will be in accordaftce with the best accepted marine practice. Chain will not be used with this system except perhaps as a transition from the buried helix anchor to the ground surface where loads require deeply buried anchors. The major load bearing members and specs are listed as follows: Minimum Breaking Strength of Major Connecting Components Buried Chain -7/8 Grade 70-----------------------------------136,000 lbs BS a► Anchor lines -1/14" dia Samson Duralon (Dacron) -------54,400 lbs BS Grid lines- 1/14" dia Samson Duralon (Dacron) -------------54,400 lbs BS 3 �� Ocean Secure Connectors (galy. Steel) ---------------------68,000 lbs BS Spectron 12 Lashings ------------------------------------------75,000 lbs BS t Spar Pennant -1" dia Samson Duralon (Dacron) ---------------37200 lbs BS In all cases where steel components are specified the components are oversized to take into account eventual strength reduction due to corrosion and fatigue. ♦ A schematic of the spar buoys is shown in accompanying figures. The spar buoys are made of steel pipe. The pipe is galvanized inside and out and tested under pressure for a period of two weeks to insure water tight integrity before shipping . In addition, during service the buoys are constantly pressurized to 15 psi. This pressure, which should be monitored monthly, serves to indicate any possible air leakage which might occur over time. However, as long as the internal pressure is maintained it is impossible for water to enter the spar buoys. All of the spar buoy pad eyes and other connections have breaking strengths in excess of 200,000 lbs. The minimum pipe wall thickness is 0.25 inches for the lightly loaded spars and 0.375 in for those spars that are expected to be heavily loaded. All welds are continuous and of the same material as the pipe to prevent galvanic corrosion. The spar buoy ballast weights are of concrete and enclosed in PE pipe to prevent the adherence of marine growth. Anchor line buoys are PE and foam filled. The size is selected to insure adequate system tension and to compensate for the expected tidal fluctuations. V)P'redator protection system. The taut netting of the Ocean Spar net pens is a characteristic that virtually eliminates predation problems from sea lions and seals. This was proven quite adequately over 3.5 years of experience at several west coast sites. The net pens are constructed as an entirely enclosed box with heavy duty marine zippers allowing the only entry. Birds and marine mammals and predatory fishes are excluded from entry. Since some mortality of the fish stock will occur and the flatfish to be raised in these pens will rest on the bottom of the fish pen, our nets will be provided with a double bottom to discourage predation by small sharks. This double bottom will be integral to the net pen and place approximately 3 ft below the actual bottom. Experience has shown that this spacing eliminates contact with predators. In the case where a electronic seal protection system must be employed, one or more spars 1 can be easily modified to serve as a mount. Such a spar buoy may be longer or of larger diameter to accommodate the need for increased height or buoyancy. [7 4 6 t i C] A A* • i I# VI) Navigation lights: Each of the spar buoys has a provision for mounting of a small portable winch of 15000 lbs pull. This mounting is interchangeable with the mounting for navigation lights. Therefore, each buoy is capable of being utilized for a navigational beacon. The type of light and the height above the waterline is to be specified by the US Coast Guard. As in the case of the seal protection system, the spar buoys can be specifically modified to fit any Coast Guard required navigational beacons and energy source, such as solar arrays charging barmy packs. VII) Permanent floating support structures. Ocean Spar Net Pen® systems do not require permanent floating support structures. Our experience has shown us that such structures are at severe risk in any storm environment and the entire system has been designed to reduce the amount of structure that could be damaged by eliminating them as a necessary component to sea farming. Our sea farming system is entirely serviced from vessels. All fuel and other hazardous materials are on the vessels, as is all necessary feeding, cleaning, and fish handling machinery. Sanitary facilities are located on the vessels.

Because the Spar Links are located in a high motion area, they are a critical connection point. The use of grommets ensures that the soft line -to -steel connections will wear well. At the same time, the lashings allow for adjustments to pennant length so that proper tension on the net pen is always achieved. Headrope Corner Headrope Comers connect the Headropes, Breastline, and Headrope Pennants. Like the Spar Link, the Headrope Comers are also located in a high motion area. Their design connects four lines simply and easily while eliminating neariy all wear between the soft lines. Again, the use of grommets ensures a long life for the soft line - to -steel connections. Waterline Corner Waterline Comers are similar in function and style to the Headrope Corner. Designed as a system back-up, they connect the Waterlines, Breastline, and Waterline Pennants. The same high-quality features are built into Waterline Corners. Rigging Clevis Rigging clevises connect two or more lines in various underwater locations in the OCEAN SPAR Net Pen System (see System Diagram Sheet for more information). Rigging Clevises experience relatively low motion but very high tension loads. High compression strength composite grommets in these connectors ensure security and long life. • 0 OCEAN :.

The top and bottom fittings connect the main lines of the System while the middle ring stiffener links the spar to its moorings. Spar Buoys are much more than just floating steel tubes. They are engineered units specially designed to take the rough conditions at oceanic sites. For example, Spar Buoys are manufac- tured to distribute loads from attachment ropes over a broad area. This results in decreased stress, stress corrosion and fatigue. At the same time, special piatgs and reinforcing rings help withstand the high bending forces generated by waves and currents. Attention to detail and quality workman- ship compliment the engineering by ensuring iong life and easy maintenance. Continuous welds and a pressure adjusting mechanism provide watertight integrity, while hot -dipped galvanization resists biofouling and corrosion. Attach- ment points on the Spar Buoys are recessed and low profile to avoid damage. The potential for corrosion has also been minimized. Reinforcing plates and much of the detail work are inside the Spar Buoy to eliminate outside surface structure.

Winches, davits, and navigation lights can be mounted on top, and a temporary platform can be attached to provide a stable stand for workers. Low profile attachments points reduce damage in heavy seas. Ring Stiffener The Ring Stiffener provides extra support to the spar buoy in rough conditions. By distributing loads from mooring lines continuously throughout the circumference of the spar, point stress concentrations are eliminated. The unit also anchors the recessed pad eyes and stiffens the spar buoy against bending. Bottom Fitting The Bottom Fitting has 16 attachment points for rope attachments. A heavy plate, built into the fitting, is used to suspend the damper plate. • CI a APPENDIX G. s NEW SEAFARMS NET PENS [7 0 s • f 0 i r � r New Seafarm Systems Ltd. 7660 HOPCOTT ROAD - DELTA, B.C., CANADA V4G 1B6 (604) 946-0550 FAX (604) 946-5022 SPECIFICATIONS FOR 10 PEN SYSTEM • t TOTAL LENGTH OF 10 PEN SYSTEM: 303 FEET TOTAL WIDTH OF 10 PEN SYSTEM: 142 FEET PENS ARE 50 FEET x 50 FEET BRIDGE DIMENSIONS: 29 FEET x 7 FEET ISLAND DIMENSIONS: 18 FEET x 18 FEET FLOAT DIMENSIONS: HEIGHT: 7 FEET DIAMETER: 4 FEET RAILINGS HEIGHT: 3.5 FEET SUPER STRUCTURES ARE 6061-T6 MARINE ALUMINIUM INCLUDING DECKS, RAILINGS AND WALKWAYS FLOATS ARE CONSTRUCTED OF POLYETHYLENE (UV TREATED) HINGES ARE MARINE GRADE HIGH STRESS RUBBER a NETS: WEIGHTS ARE CONCRETE (CAN BE LEFT HANGING IN PLACE) PREDATOR NET IS 7 FEET FROM INNER NET MINIMUM DEPTH OF 12 FEET FROM BOTTOM OF PREDATOR NET TO OCEAN FLOOR POLY ROPE IS 1'k INCHES THICK WITH A BREAKING STRAIN OF 50,000 LBS.

A total of 225 units are in service today. Most of these systems are in use in the Bay of Fundy, Atlantic area. The 0 highest tides in the world plus our severe winter environment and strong tidal currents make this area an ideal test of our cage systems. Among the services offered is a complete turn key operation including: 0 Site analysis. • Cage supply. • Anchor and attachment supply and installation. • Net supply and installation. • Training. 0 Maintenance and inspections. • Operation management. Optional equipment can be supplied including: • Automatic feeders. 4 Net washers. • Barges (powered or unpowered). 4 • • 0 • Background of "The Offshore Octagon Cage System" By 1988 it became apparent that existing cage designs were plagued by chronic problems. Hinged and flexible designs were suffering continuing damage to plastic floats in rough sea conditions. Ice build-up was causing severe damage to both nets and cages. The constant vertical motion caused to traditional cages and plastic models by winter wave action resulted in • stress and in increased fish mortality. As aquaculture moved toward the growing of other species, especially bottom fish, a newly designed cage, capable of meeting a variety of diversified needs, was necessary. i We assumed the task of designing, building and testing a new cage system. In 1990 our efforts resulted in The Offshore Octagon Cage System which incorporates these features: • . Innovative design and rugged steel construction able to withstand a wide variety of weather conditions Weight (over 40,000lbs) and rigidity allow only minimal cage movement in rough conditions Life expectancy of 40 years with proper maintenance • • Ability to grow both bottom fish and fin fish Ability to accommodate automatic feeders, solar or wind generators, lights, etc. Ease of net changing. Ease of service and maintenance. • • Good flotation, capable of handling ice build-up. • Safety and stability for personnel with handrail equipped walkway around perimeter. • Rigid construction allows less movement in heavy sea conditions. • Ease of assembly and anchoring at location. • Safe mooring of feed or maintenance boats alongside at all locations around perimeter. • Optional ability for lowering below surface to avoid hurricane conditions. • Proven operation in the Aquaculture industry. • Affordabilty. • The new Offshore Octagon Cage system has met or exceeded our expectations and is often referred to as the "Mercedes Benz" of cages. • • PLAN VIEW OF 23 M OCTAGON CAGE SCALE 1:100 ;-Smm NON -SUP / HANDRAIL FLOOR PLATE '-PIPE SPLICE .

In this arrangement, the predator net is fitted with a weighted mesh bottom so that the single cage is enveloped. This offers the individual cage total • security against marine predators. Eight Cage Cluster Deployment In this arrangement, a single predator net of 4" poly mesh with a weighted • bottom is arrayed around the perimeter of the cluster. This net provides full depth protection for the cluster at all stages of the tide. The top of the net can be attached directly to the cage cluster perimeter or floated separately by buoys. U, L] • • U • Comments on Net Pen Mooring Arrangements A combination of Danforth anchors or granite weights is preferred over screw type anchors for mooring our cages or cage clusters. 1. Screw anchors are expensive to install. 2. If cages are rearranged from their original installation, new screw anchors must be installed. 3. Severe storm conditions could result in breakage of the screw anchor eye or cause the anchor itself to be pulled from the seabed. Either of these situations would result in the complete loss of holding power for the affected anchor line (or lines) and could result in damage to the cage system. 4. While subject to dragging in severe storm conditions, Danforth anchors or granite weights would retain holding power and could be reset. 5. With Danforth anchors or granite weights, an over stressed chain leg may be reinforced by the use of an additional large anchor or two anchors could be placed in tandem to increase holding power. To summarize, the deployable systems (Danforth anchors and/or granite weights) offer significant operational and economic advantages over screw anchor systems. i • • 0 • C • 0 SIDE VIEW OF ARMSTRONG 25 METER OCTAGON CAGE - TWO CAGE CLUSTER CLOSE UP VIEW OF ARMSTRONG OCTAGON 25 METER CAGE SUPERSTRUCTURE MSX -64 and MSX -60 Photovoltaic Modules u F^- i .L.M'GY'.'SS�...1 i .. y�. ..

With over 3 amperes Of current at peak power, these are the highest - current commercial PV modules in the world, and generate that current at a voltage high enough to charge batteries efficiently in virtually any climate. These modules may be used in single -module arrays or deployed in multiple -module arrays. wired in series/parallel combinations as required to meet cur- rent and voltage requirements. As single -module ar- rays, they may be mounted on a variety of surfaces using an optional bracket kit or by means of user - fabricated support hardware. Solarex also offers hardware for supporting multiple -module arrays. These modules are well-suited for virtually all ap- plications where photovoltaics are a feasible energy source, including telecommunications systems, pumping and irrigation, cathodic protection, remote villages and clinics, aids to navigation—in short, all but the smallest of photovoltaic system.

INDIVIDUALLY TESTED, LABELED AND WARRANTEED It is inherent in all photovoltaic manufacturing pro- cesses that the electrical characteristics of finished modules vary slightly from one unit to another. The electrical characteristics listed in this -sheet aur those of typical, or production -average, units. However, unlike any Other manufacturer, Solarcx tests each finished module in a solar simulator anti Libels it with its actual output—peak power, aril Voltage and current at peak power—at STC. In ad- dition to providing a user with exact specification,. this allows Solarex to enforce tighter tolerariccs on the power output of its modules than :un' other P\ manufacturer. Furthermore, each module is covered by our industry - leading ten-year limited warranty, which guarantees: • that no module will generate less than its guaranteed minimum power -,yllen purchased: W 0 • E 0 a F71 • L] r, A rtaT�... :. �--rtitr'¢ „u� „f'l r'•$yv r • continued power (at least 90% of guaranteed minimum) for ten years.

They meet or exceed CEC and IP►. Block V test criteria, including the following test:: • Repetitive cycling between -40°C and 90°C: • Repetitive cycling bet,\-een -40°C and 850WA 85'%, relative humidity: • Wind loading exceeding 125 mph: • Surface withstands impact on one -inch hail at terminal velocity (52 mph) without breakage. VARIABLES AFFECTING PERFORMANCE The performance of typical MEGA S1-64 and -60 modules is described by the I-V curves and elcc- trical characteristics table on the next page. Each module's actual, tested output characteristics arc printed on its label. The current and power output of photovoltaic modules are approximately proportional to il- lumination intensity. At a given intensity, a module's output current and operating voltage arc determined by the characteristics of the load. If that load is a battery, the battery's internal im- pedance will dictate the module's operating voltage. An 1-V curve is simply all of a module's possible operating points (voltage/current combinations) at a given cell temperature and light intensity. Increases in cell temperature increase current but decrease voltage. -y".n'P.' ,^�'-,�. ,i, --_.•y c.nr�s,i `- ,K,l.+1 .�.r.»�•n. 0-4 .-vw ,�•?. ^+r-. 7 -777:r-`7— . --ars TYPICAL ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS01 12 VOLT CONFIGURATION"" AISX-64 NISX-60 Typical peak poorer (Pp) 64\1' 60\N' \bItage @ peak power (Vpp) 17.5V 17.1\' Current @ peak power (ipp) 3.66A 3.5A Guaranteed minimum peak poorer 62W 58\1' Short-circuit current (lsc) 4.OA 3.8A Open -circuit voltage (Voc) 21.3V 21.1\' Temperature coefficient of open -circuit voltage -73 n1\'/°C -'3 m\'/°C Temperature coefficient of short-circuit current 3 mA/°C 3 mA/°C Approximate effect of temperature on power -0.38%/°C -0.38%/°C NOCT(;) 49°C 49`C dotes: i(h These data represent the pertbrmance of typical modules as measured at their outman terminals, and du not include the effect of such additional equipment a., diode., and cabling.

SUBJECT: Development, Assessment, Approval, and Continuing Compliance Evaluation of HACCP-based Inspection Systems. Ii. AUTHORITY: 50 tFR 260.103(c) III. POLICY: NMFS policy is to encourage and assist interested parties in the development and implementation of HACCP-based inspection systems to facilitate consistent distribution of safe, wholesome, and properly labeled fishery products of desired uniform quality. The development and implementation of HACCP-based inspection systems is optional. However, their use should result in more efficient use of NMFS resources to inspect, grade, and certify fishery products. TV. PURPQSE: (1) To provide guidance for the development, implementation, and operation of HACCP-based inspection systems which will meet NMFS approval, and (2) to establish procedures for use by USDC inspectors. to ensure uniformity in the evaluation of the completeness and effectiveness of the system. V. QENERAI: In July 1992, NMFS published a Federal Rgaister notice announcing the availability of a new seafood inspection program based on Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) principles. This program is a refinement of the Integrated Quality Assurance (IQA) Program that also uses HACCP principles. However, the IQA program, having unique methods for the inspection and grading of products, will continue as an option for applicants to the program. HACCP, is a non-traditional, non -continuous inspection technique recommended by the National Academy of Sciences as a more scientific, analytical, and economical approach than that provided by traditional inspection and quality control methods. HACCP, which focuses on problem prevention and problem solving, relies heavily on proper monitoring and record keeping by the industry. One of the primary economic benefits of HACCP is that it provides for reduced destructive sampling of the finished product as compared to the end -product sampling required under traditional inspection systems, including the current NMFS Integrated Quality Assurance program. In addition, the application of HACCP principles to seafood inspection has been adopted by several countries, including Canada, Iceland, and Thailand, and is becoming more broadly recognized by the international community as a mechanism to apply uniform inspection procedures. Transmittal No. 183 Approved r' DATE:October 20, 1991 PT. CH. SEC. I 1 02 VI 40 J NMFS FISHERY PRODUCTS INSPECTION MANUAL The HACCP-based inspection program will allow participants an opportunity to apply their existing quality control systems more efficiently, receive the management benefits of producing safe, wholesome, and properly labeled products more consistently and obtain the marketing benefits of using marks associated with the program. It will also allow for more efficient use of NMFS resources. The new program is structured so that NMFS inspection frequencies can be varied depending on an individual facility's compliance history. That is, firms that demonstrate the ability to maintain consistent control can be inspected less frequently. In summary, the HACCP-based service is consistent with global activities to harmonize inspection protocols. In addition, NMFS believes that the HACCP-based service will enhance the safety, wholesomeness, and economic integrity of seafood available to consumers, as well as improve seafood industry quality assurance and regulatory oversight. A. Control Point: Any step in a process whereby biological, chemical, or physical factors may be controlled. B. Corrective Actions: Procedures to be followed when a serious or critical deficiency is assessed or when a critical limit is reached or exceeded. C.

NOTE: Although not required, NMFS recommends that the firm submit end -item verification records (as described in paragraph VII.E) with their HACCP Plan. This will allow the firm to test their controls, provide plan reviewers more information, and possibly reduce the Validation cost. C. HACCP Plan Review and Annroval: Submission and review of HACCP Plans will be handled using the following procedures: 1. Plans are submitted to the Regional HACCP Activities Coordinator. 2. The Regional HACCP Activitie's Coordinator, through Region management, assigns the plan to a qualified Consumer Safety Officer for initial review. 3. The assigned Consumer Safety Officer reviews the plan and requests changes, clarifications, deletions, etc., from the firm. In this activity,, the assigned officer works with the firm to finalize the development of the HACCP Plan. 4. Once the assigned officer is assured the firm's HACCP Plan is complete, it is forwarded to the Regional HACCP Activities Coordinator. Included with the HACCP Plan is an outline of the activities of the reviewer which describes the controversies encountered and the decisions, if any, that were agreed to between the reviewer and the firm. 5. The Regional HACCP Activities Coordinator reviews the HACCP Plan for completeness and workability. A written review is sent to the firm indicating what changes, if any, are necessary prior to Validation. 6. Once it is decided by the Regional HACCP Activities Coordinator that the HACCP Plan is ready for Validation, it is forwarded to Field Operations Headquarters, National HACCP Activities Coordinator for final review. A complete description of all work by both the assigned Consumer Safety Officer 6 NMFS FISHERY PRODUCTS INSPECTION MANUAL PT. I CH. I and the Regional HACCP Activities Coordinator accompanies the HACCP Plan. 7. Field Operations performs a final review of the HACCP Plan ascertaining complete work by the Region. When the plan review is complete, Field Operations informs the Region as to approval/disapproval of the HACCP Plan and, if applicable, requests the Region to schedule the Validation with the firm. 1 8. All work of the assigned CSO and Regional HACCP Activities Coordinator is performed on a fee basis A according to the Schedule. All time and charges are t logged by all parties involved in their personal logs and a Daily Record of Charges is completed. 9. Modifications to the HACCP Plani After the HACCP plan has been validated, modifications may be made under the following conditions: a. The firm must notify NMFS, in writing (Faxes are acceptable), of any modifications in their HACCP plan before implementing the changes. b. Any changes made to the plan due to unusual circumstances, such as to address a health or safety issue, must be documented in a corrective action plan. c. The NMFS Regional Inspection Branch must be notified of these immediate changes within one working day. D. Labgl Review Procedures: 1. All applicable labels must be approved prior to use in accordance with Part I, Chapter 3, Section 5 of NOAA Handbook 25, Inspection Manual except as listed below. (Labels previously submitted and approved under other existing NMFS Inspection Programs need not be resubmitted for approval) 2. Labels will be submitted to the HACCP Activities Coordinator for review. With respect to the HACCP- based Inspection Program only, the firm's HACCP Plan will act as the required specification for label review. 3. The HACCP Activities Coordinator will forward these labels for approval to a qualified Consumer Safety J Officer. Once completed the HACCP Activities 7 93 • DATE: October 20 1993 NMFS FISHERY PRODUCTS INSPECTION MANUAL PT. CH.SEC. 48 I 02 Coordinator will combine the review of labels with the plan review and forward all to the facility. 0 4. If a firm believes it is competent to review its own labels, the following procedures apply: a. A sample of the labels of products covered in the firm's HACCP Plan will be submitted to the Consumer Safety Officer assigned to review the 0 firm's HACCP Plan. b. The sample si2Le will consist of a minimum of six labels and a maximum of ten (10) percent of the firm's total applicable labels. At least one label for each identified process will be submitted. c. The labels will be reviewed for accuracy and compliance. Preliminary reviews (general compliance to Part I, Chapter 3, Section 5, 140AA Handbook 25) will be conducted by the assigned Consumer Safety Officer; or other qualified field personnel. More specific and final reviews for compliance will be sent to the Label Approval Officer, Document Approval and Supply Services, Pascagoula, MS. S d. If after this review it is determined that the firm has control of the labeling requirements associated with its products (legal and programmatic), then the firm will be allowed to produce products under the HACCP Plan without routine NMFS label pre -approval. e. If a firm is granted pre -approval authority for its labels, five copies of each label of products covered by the firm's HACCP Plan must be submitted to the Label Approval Officer, Document Approval and Supply Services, Pascagoula, MS. f. These copies must be submitted within sixty (60) days of first use by the firm. g. In addition, each label used by the firm will be considered a part of the records of the HACCP Plan and will be treated as such. Demonstrated failure of the. firm to adhere to their responsibilities in this area will be considered a failure of the HACCP Plan and the firm will be assessed a deviation in the appropriate place on 8 NMFS FISHERY PRODUCTS INSPECTION MANUAL TE:October 20 199 CH. SEC the Systems Audit Checklist. Failure will also result in the immediate suspension of this policy and the firm will be required to submit Ilabels for approval prior to their use. NOTE: Product labels bearing a Child Nutrition Statement must be approved prior to use in accordance with USDA requirements. There will be no exceptions. E. Pre-Val?datign: Prior to Validation of the firm's HACCP Plan, the firm must operate using the plan for a specified time period. This will provide the Validation team with necessary information regarding the firm's ' ability to follow their own written procedures. To prepare for the Validation, the firm must follow the following procedures: J 1. The firm should begin following their plan as soon as possible. 2. The firm will adhere to the plan's provisions and keep all records associated with the approved HACCP plan for at least 10 consecutive production days. 3. The firm will contact the Regional Inspection Branch as soon as they believe the approved plan is functioning successfully and when they have records covering at least ten (10) consecutive production days. 4. The Regional Inspection Branch will schedule a Validation inspection with the firm. Once the Validation is scheduled the -Regional Inspection Branch informs Field Operations of its date and location as well as all parties who will attend from NMFS. 5. The firm must verify through end -product examination that the process controls result in complying product. If documentation has not been previously provided, the firm must collect data during the pre - validation period which will be sufficient to demonstrate this relationship. Firms attempting to document this relationship during the pre -validation period must collect data on not less than 20 percent of their lots using sampling plans comparable to those in 50 CFR Part 260, with at least one lot representing each product form. The inspection records must be available to NMFS at the validation. i 9 a� DATE:October 20 1993 NMFS FISHERY PRODUCTS INSPECTION MANUAL PT. CH.SEC. I 91 02 F. Validation: The Validation will determine whether all of the hazards and CCPs have been identified, the plan is being followed and monitored by the firm, and is effectively controlling the identified hazards. Procedures for Validation are as follows: 1. The Validation will be conducted on a fee basis (See paragraph IX.) by a team of no more than three NMFS officials. The number and structure of the team will be determined by the size and complexity of the firm's process and nature of hazards associated with the products covered under the HACCP Plan. 2. The Validation team will have an assigned Consumer. Safety Officer as lead who will have final authority w of the facility's rating based on the teams findings. 3. Validation includes conducting paperwork reviews, recording sanitation and in=process observations and inspecting samples of finished product. All reviews will be performed using accepted auditing practices. 4. Product evaluations will be completed by conducting 1 a combination of statistical reviews of records and finished product sample inspections. At least one lot for each product form will be evaluated by inspecting samples of finished product. NMFS inspection personnel may, for cause,,sample and inspect lots in excess of this guideline. Results will be recorded on the appropriate score sheet(s). 5. Firms will be rated using the appropriate Systems Audit Checklist. If the firm receives a Level IV rating or higher it will qualify as a participant in the program and may finaliie a contract for services j with NMFS. t 6. Only with a valid contract and continued demonstrated compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and policies may 1) the firm be eligible to use official marks or other related statements and 2) firm -collected data be used by NMFS towards issuing official certification of the firm's products or facility compliance. 7. To build a compliance history, all firms will enter the program at Level IV. The results of subsequent 0 NMFS FISHERY PRODUCTS INSPECTION MANUAL SEC. Systems Audits, as described in Section G, will allow changes in the facility rating. 8. If a firm passes its Validation, all products under review during the Validation, including the previous ten (10) production days, are eligible to bear the appropriate official marks or advertising claim. NOTE FOR VESSELS: Due to logistical factors, only one NMFS Consumer Safety Officer will perform the Validation. In addition, the pre -validation and validation periods may be combined. The NMFS Consumer Safety Officer will accompany the vessel for an appropriate time period during a fishing season, performing the background checks of critical control points and validating the plan at one time. The officer may assist the quality assurance/management group on board the vessel in any alterations to make to their HACCP Plan to work toward plan approval and a successful Validation. Once the HACCP plan is validated, the officer is taken off the vessel as soon as is practicable. These procedural accommodations are made in recognition of possible space restrictions and to reduce the numbers of transfers at sea. 1 • a DATE: October 20 1993 NMFS FISHERY PRODUCTS INSPECTION MANUAL PT.

Bent visibility was encountered during the brief period of high slack water. The poor visibility was attributed to a cloud of suspended sediments and/or plankton that increased in density from 5 to 10 feet off the bottom down to the substrate. The bottom was uniformly flat and sandy with a fine 0 Plum island in Block Island Sound. Atmospheric conditions during the survey period were uniformly sunny days with a southwesterly wind at 10-15 mph. Sea conditions ranged from flat calm seas to a maximum of 2 -feet. Diving activities began at approximately 0800 hours each morning and were terminated at approximately 1600 hours each afternoon. Dive time did not include dock side preparation and breakdown. Main focus of the survey was along the northern most transect of the approximate 200 -acre site. The location of the transect ran from (72. 11' 08" longitude 41' 09' 56" latitude) at the northwest corner to a position of (72° 09' 54" longitude 41. 11' 10" latitude) at the northeast corner. The water depth along this transect ranged from a maximum of 83 -feet at the northeast corner to 29 -feet at the northwest corner. The average water depth was approximately 35 -foot. The total length of this transect was approximately 1.8 miles. The station was located via a Magellan* differential GPS system located aboard EEA's 25 --foot research vessel. The divers were equipped with a Sony* model 101 video camera enclosed in a Amphibico• water tight housing. videos were taken both with and without a halogen light. To help aid the dive operator an underwater battery powered scuba scooter was utilized. Dives were conducted at all tidal stages. on the visibility was extremely poor, and ranged from approximately 6 -inches to a maximum of 3 -foot. Bent visibility was encountered during the brief period of high slack water. The poor visibility was attributed to a cloud of suspended sediments and/or plankton that increased in density from 5 to 10 feet off the bottom down to the substrate. The bottom was uniformly flat and sandy with a fine 0 • Mr. Marion Wiggin ! September 28, 1994 Page 2 sediment layer (approximately 2-10 millimeters thick) suspended above. Approximately 8-10 erratic boulders 3 to 6 -feet in diameter were encountered. Additionally, small areas of sand waves were observed. Attempts to collect core samples to measure the discontinuity layer were unsuccessful. The highly liquified sediments could not be contained in the coring apparatus. The biota observed was minimal. The most prevalent organisms • were the flat -clawed hermit arab (Paauru¢ Rollicaris), 20-30 individuals were observed, the most common fin -fish was the sea robin (Pri_onotus sRR.) these were all juveniles 3 -4 -inches in length, no species identification could be made. Additional organisms were represented by one or two individuals, those being the channeled whelk (Busy -Con canaliculatum), knobbed whelk (Busycon cariga),, little skate (Raajaerinacea), winter flounder (Pleuronectea americAn ), and windowpane flounder (Sconhthal ups aouosus). The erratic boulders were covered with encrusting invertebrates (i.e., barnacles, hydroids, and sponges) and marine algae, Irish moss (Chondrin erisuus) and common southern kelp (Laminaria agar ii). These observations are consistent with what we expected to observe based on past experience working in Long Island Sound and the New York Bight. In conclusion, the extremely limited visibility due to suspended sediments and loss of light precludes meaningful data acquisition by use of divers in this area. We believe however that • the published literature available for this zone is sufficient to adequately characterize the habitat and predict impacts, if significant that could result from operation of the fish pens.

Below are the responses: HYDROLOGY 1. Would you include the details of the current meter, deployment, and location (Loran Coordinates)? The first current meter study was conducted on July 5, and 6, 1994, using three Aanderra RCM -5 recording current meters, • configured in the attached mooring design drawing. The instruments were deployed at 410 10' 19" Lat. x 72° 10' 39" Long. using the onboard loran. The instruments were retrieved on 7/6/94, and upon retrieval, • the midwater current meter impeller was observed fouled with sea weed. The recorded tapes from each meter were read and the data from midwater was determined to be unusable. On September 7, 1994 a single RCM -5 current meter was deployed to collect and replace the missing midwater data and surface buoy 1 disappeared during deployment. It was not able to be recovered by the divers at the conclusion of the video survey on September 9, 1994. On October 3-5 EEA conducted a side scan survey to find and recover the missing current meter. The meter was not found using • the side scan sonar and divers. EEA then repeated the entire current profile study on October 4th. The survey was completed using an EG&G SACM-3 smart acoustic current meter. The instrument r] Mr. Merlon Wiggin October 11, 1994 Page 2 • was deployed from an anchored boat at 2 meters, 5 meters and 10 meters below the surface in approximately 34 feet of water. The specifications for this instrument are included with this report. • The GPS Location was 41-10-220 Lat. x 72-10-724 Long. The data sheets and averages have been included for your use. During this current meter study, we noticed that the currents do not flow in the direction predicted by Eldrodges tide and current tables. There is an obvious local eddy condition where the current 41 is reversed from the predicted flow. 2. The data sheets do not have dates and start times. The enclosed data sheets have the actual start times and all data was collected on October 4, 1994. • 1. The scoping outline required the depth of discontinuity layer and the depth of the unconsolidated organic layer. • As reported in EEA's field sampling report dated 9/28 the organic layer was extremely variable and in constant motion. Observations indicated that the organic layer was approximately 2- 10 millimeters thick. No depth to the discontinuity layer could be obtained due to the unconsolidated nature of the sediments. Samples could not be obtained with the 12 inch (30.5 centimeter) hand corer utilized by the dive team. No evidence of the discontinuity layer could be observed in the ponar grab samples either. 2. It is correct to assume that the depth of sediment was 3 - inches and what was the resistance at this depth? As previously stated the hand corer was inserted it full 12 - inch length with out hitting any resistance. The 0.1 square meter ponar grab penetrates the sediments to a maximum depth of approximately 9 -inches. 3. Would you ask H2M to include the methods used either by description or by reference, in determining the TOC? Also, do you think the variation of 388 mg/kg to 2,230 mg.kg is a logical variation? • Please find enclosed the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers manual utilized to determine the TOC levels in the sediment. Typically there are no limits established for TOC samples. It would appear C • Mr. Merlon Wiggin October 11, 1994 Page 3 • that TOC is used as a correlation between other targeted compounds, or biological communities. INFAUNA • 1. We did not find any reference to whelks being present, yet we think that some the traps in the area are conch traps. Typically whelks are not represented in the ponar grab samples. The traditional method to survey whelks is to set traps 49 in the study area. As mentioned in the field report the presence of both the channeled whelk (Busycon canaliculatum) and knobbed whelk (Busycon carica) was discussed. Ve ruly yours, Ma thew J.

Current data were collected at depths of 2, 5, and 10 meters; at least 15 minutes of data were collected at each level every hour. Upon review of the data, two gaps became apparent: a 22 - minute break in the data was observed between 13:03:45 and 13:25:57. The 22 -minute gap was caused when the anchor broke free, and the boat had to be repositioned. The two -meter data, scheduled to be collected at approximately 13:41:00, were not recorded due to a technical error. • If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me. • MJB:dv -1 • 0 Very truly yours, W1 1P Matthew J.

On July 5, 1994 a current meter array was initialized south of Plum Island at 41' 101.19/72' 101.39 in approximately 37 feet of water. The three Aandera RCM -5 current meters (#7411, 7409, and 7372) were set at surface, mid -water and bottom levels, respectively. The corresponding depth for the three meters was approximately 14 -foot (surface), 26 -foot (mid -water) and 35 -foot (bottom). The start clock on the meters was turned on at 0938 hours, 0948 hours and 1001 hours, respectively. The bottom sampling meter entered the water first at 1038 hours, followed by the mid -water at 1108 hours and finally the surface meter at 1115 hours. The meters were retrieved on July 6, 1994. The surface meter came out of the water at 0929 hours, the mid -water at 0930 hours and the bottom at 0932 hours. Upon retrieval of the meters, the mid -water meter was obviously fouled with sea lettuce. The data tapes from each were sent to the New Jersey Marine Science Consortium for analyses. On August 29, 1994 EEA received the results from all three recordings. The surface data was in tact but no data had been recorded by the mid -water meter. For unknown reasons the bottom meter only recorded data for the first 40 minutes before failing; no additional data was collected on this meter. On September 7, 1994 a second attempt was made to collect the missing data. A single Aandera RCM -5 current meter was set at the 0 Mr. Merlon Wiggin February 15, 1995 Page 2 mid -water depth at the original location (41.101.19/726101.39). This meter was lost for unknown reasons and never retrieved. A final attempt to collect current data was made on October 4, 1994. Data was collected from an anchored boat utilizing a EG&G sACM-3 acoustic current meter lowered by hand. Again the data was collected from the same location. Current readings were collected from 08:02:45 hours to 19:13:45 hours on October 4th. • A telephone conversation with Ms. Karen Chytalo of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation on February 15, 1995 confirmed that the data collected on October 4th would be acceptable, providing previous attempts were documented, as we have provided herein.

KEMERS, The optimal and revolutionary solution to your seal and sea lion deterrent problems.... Using sophisticated TRANSDUCER-TECHNOLOG Y that is tested and approved for submarine applications and not to mention the unique power microprocessor controlled random sound emitting saving function, which at the same time has a major psycho acoustic deterrent effect on the animals. ev n Ir • • 0 0 0 r� u KfoERS ACOUS.TIC DETERRENT SYSTEMS FOR SEALS AND SEA LIONS THE SEAL AND SEA LION PROBLEM Seals and sea lions are intelligent creatures who have learned to man-made environments. They quickly learn that the sound of shooting a trawl net means that a free meal is usually on the way and cultured fish in cages are attracting the seals during the cold water periods of the year. In trawling operations, seals and sea lions start to feed as the trawl is hauled within 100 meters of the surface. The animals often get entangled in the nets and drown. ACOUSTIC DETERRENT systems from KEMERS keep the animals away from the trawl net, thereby increasing the catch and minimizing the chance of hauling dead animals aboard. In aquaculture, the system keeps the animals away from the cages. Similarly, these animals have adapted their feeding habits to take already -hooked fish because the effort required is less than catching the fish on their own. Losses on longliners, gillnetters and aquaculture have been significant and can pay for the KEMERS equipment in a matter of days or weeks, depending on local conditions. KEMERS Acoustic Deterrent systems are used WORLD WIDE within the aquaculture industry for several years with satisfied customers. THE ACOUSTIC DETERRENT SYSTEM SOLUTION FROM KEMERS. Because seals and sea lions have learned and now are attracted to the sounds of fishing opera- tions and aquaculture sites it is also believed that they will learn to stand clear of vessels and sites where KEMERS devices are used. This has already been demonstrated in many countries. In certain fishing operations, the use of KEMERS equipment can have a twin benefit. Seals and sea lions, being predators, threaten the fish causing them to disperse, which makes them harder to catch. And when fish are hooked, the animals will often steal them before they can be brought aboard. Using KEMERS equipment, the mammals disperse or stand off at a distance allowing fish to be landed with little interference. The frequency used is above the hearing threshold of fish so they do not react to the acoustic signals emitted. In aquaculture it reduces the stress and eliminates the seal attacks. Seals and sea lions, do not have particularly acute hearing underwater. From analyses of seal and sea lion ear construction, it is, believed that they do not hear as well as humans. The sound emitted by the KEMERS equipment is strong, but, based on scientific studies of pain and hearing thresholds, it is unlikely that an animal could ever be close enough to the equipment to sustain hearing damage. The effective range of the KEMERS equip- ment depends on several factors including: • Sound output from the device • Hearing ability of the animal • Interferences that block the sound Old sea* lion bulls often have hearing loss due to parasites in their ears and chance encounters with "bombs" sometimes used to disperse the animals. Rocks, boat hulls, and other solid objects reflect sound and can provide temporary cover. Once the animals realize the offensive sound is not temporary, they will leave the area where the device is transmitting.

Suite 410 Westbury, New York 11590 March 1995 FISH HATCHERY WASTE CHARACTERIZATION 1.0 Project Description The purpose of this characterization is to estimate both the quantity and quality of the wastewater that could be generated by a land based fish hatchery. Peconic Associates is currently involved in developing a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for a proposed fish hatchery to be sited on the North Fork of Long Island. The hatchery would serve + as the location for the breeding, hatching and rearing to the juvenile stage, summer flounder, Paralichthys dentata. Juvenile fish would be transplanted to offshore net pens where they would be raised to adult age and a marketable size. 4 • C: 0 a The hatchery would be generating a wastewater from the feeding of the fish (uneaten food) and the excretion of waste products (feces and urine) from the fish themselves. The hatchery wastewater can be handled in one of the following manners; discharged directly to a receiving water (single pass system), discharged to a receiving water after partial treatment or not discharged at all as in the case of a totally closed recirculation system. Each of these options has significantly different impacts as relating to raw water requirements and amount of waste products discharged from the operating system. Each of the waste components identified in Section 2.0 will be quantified for each of the options available for the hatchery operation. 1.1 literature Review A number of articles pertaining to fish farming technology, pilot studies, operating plant data and educational institutions were reviewed. There are significant variations in expected waste loadings as noted in these articles. To date, there is not a large data base on closed system recirculation facilities. Much of the information is of a proprietary basis held by manufacturers of turnkey systems. Therefore, Cameron Engineering has utilized several references for performing this study. The references used include: 1. "Design Principles of Water Reuse Systems for Salmonids" by M.B. Timmons, W.D. Youngs, P. Bowser and G.

Losordo, PhD., University of North Carolina 4. "Fish Farming Technology", Proceedings of the First International Conference on Fish Farming Technology, Norway, 1993 From these references the following tables were developed: Table 1 - "Cornell University - Waste Projections" Table 2 - "R.A.H. Sparrow - Waste Projections" Table 3 - "British Columbia - Waste Projections" Table 4 - "Dr. A. Jones - Waste Projections" Table 5 - "Waste Characterization - Summary of References" For calculating waste loadings from the various hatchery options, Table 5 values will be used. 2.0 Waste Components Wastewater from the proposed hatchery would contain contaminants of concern such as Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Suspended Solids (SS), Nitrogen (Ammonia, Organic, Nitrite and Nitrate), and Phosphorous (P). The quantity of these varies depending on the type of fishery operation. As discussed in Section 1.0, potential operations include single pass with no treatment, single pass with partial treatment and a closed recirculation system with treatment. For this brief study, a number of references as noted in Section 1.1, were utilized in determining the expected concentrations of the pollutants of concern.

Of the references used, two use the mass of fish present in the hatchery and the two use the amount of feed distributed to the fish on a daily basis. Literature review indicates it that determining waste generation rates is best when relating to the amount of feed. For purposes of this analysis, an average of four references were utilized (Table 5). Due to the lack of detailed information specific to the proposed application, it is believed that the averages a determined in Table 5 represent an appropriate level of waste components for purposes of this report. 2.1 Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) BOD is recognized as the most widely used parameter for measuring the strength of a liquid wastestream. The BOD test measures the amount of dissolved oxygen that microorganisms would consume in the biochemical oxidation of organic matter. The BOD test is a 5 day analysis in which the results can be used to quantify the strength of a wastewater, serve as a basis for the sizing of treatment facilities and measurement of the efficiencies of unit processes. * A portion of the BOD is associated with uneaten feed and fish feces. BOD is also associated with the organic and nutrient portion of the wastestream that is either suspended or dissolved. BOD can be reduced by removal of the settleable solids and by treatment biologically with either a fixed or suspended growth system. A portion of the BOD is associated with uneaten feed and fish feces. BOD is also associated with the organic and nutrient portion of the wastestream that is either suspended or dissolved. BOD can be reduced by removal of the settleable solids and by treatment biologically with either a fixed or suspended growth system. 0 r From Table 5, the average BOD is estimated to be 10,508 pounds per day in April of 1999. In the single pass hatchery operation, the total BOD loading would be discharged to the M receiving waters. Based on a projected flow level of 23 MGD, the concentration of the BOD would be approximately 55 mg/l. In a partial treatment operation involving settling and removal of fish feces and uneaten food, it is estimated that the BOD loading would be decreased by 40% resulting a effluent concentration of approximately 33 mg/l. In a totally closed recirculation 1k system, it is expected that the BOD loading would be reduced by a 90% level resulting in a concentration of approximately 5.5 mg/1 remaining in the hatchery water. 0 3 0 2.2 Suspended Solids (SS) Solids generated at a fish hatchery can be in multiple forms; suspended, floatable and dissolved • The suspended solids represent the bulk of the solids as noted above. The suspended solids would be generated by the waste products of the fish as well as by the feeding of the fish. The settleable solids are those solids that can be readily settled in a quiescent environment such as a settling tank or clarifier. Removal of these solids results in a direct reduction of BOD and 46 nutrient loadings to downstream units. From Table 5, it is estimated that 11,873 pounds of suspended solids will be generated each day. In a single pass system, this load would be passed into the receiving water. In a partial treatment system, it is estimated that up to 75% of the suspended solids could be removed resulting in a concentration of 15.5 mg/l in the hatchery effluent. In a closed recirculation system, it is expected that the suspended solids level could be maintained at 90% reduction level resulting in a SS concentration of approximately 6.2 mg/l remaining in the hatchery water. 23 Nitrogen # Nitrogen is a waste component that needs to be addressed in a recirculated system as toxicity due to ammonia -nitrogen buildup can be lethal to the fish. From Table 5, it is projected that at peak operating conditions, a total of 1598 pounds of nitrogen will be generated. Nitrogen is found in several forms; nitrogen gas, organic nitrogen, ammonia -nitrogen (ionized and unionized), nitrite -nitrogen and nitrate -nitrogen. All of the fish feces and fish feed contain quantities of organic nitrogen that can degrade into M ammonia -nitrogen by bacterial action. Ammonia -nitrogen is also excreted in urine and by the gills. To control ammonia and nitrite levels from building up to toxic levels, it is necessary to convert the nitrogen in the system to nitrate -nitrogen. This is best accomplished by biological oxidation. In a single pass operation all 1598 pounds would pass through to the receiving waters. In a partial treatment system, approximately 25% of the total nitrogen load would be removed. In a closed system, the nitrogen in the system would be connected to nitrate -nitrogen. 4 • 2.4 Phosphorous From review of literature, phosphorous is not a nutrient that must be addressed in a closed system. However, phosphorous if discharged to a receiving water should be monitored and • controlled if necessary. From Table 1, it is expected that at peak operations, a total of 642 pounds of phosphorous will be generated per day. ♦ In a single pass system, this amount of Phosphorous would pass into the receiving waters. In a partial treatment operation, it is that a 50% reduction would occur resulting in a concentration of 1.7 mg/l entering the receiving water. In a closed recirculation system, the level of Phosphorous could be lowered to less than 1.7 mg/l through chemical addition, settling and filtration. • • _i 2.5 Waste Concentrations The values for the waste components provided above represent mass loadings based on a 24 hour per day operation. The proposed hatchery is projected to have a total flow of approximately 23 MGD at peak growing conditions (April 1999). The recirculation would be conducted on a 2 hour basis resulting in an hourly flow rate of approximately 1.9 MG per cycle. When computing concentrations of the waste components on a total flow basis, the following is noted for each type of hatchery operation: BOD SS N P Single Pass 54.7 mg/1 61.9 mg/l 8.3 mg/1 3.3 mg/! Partial Treatment 32.8 mg/l 15.5 mg/l 6.25 mg/l 1.7 mg/l Closed -Recirculation 5.5 mg/l 6.2 mg/1 <6.0 mg/l <1.7 mg/l While the above concentrations appear low, when calculating the mass loading based on the total daily flow, the resultant loading is indeed significant. In addition to the variations in total waste loadings of the hatchery treatment options, there are differences in raw water requirements with single pass treatment representing the highest volume requirement and the closed recirculation option requiring the least amount of raw water. While raw water requirements are lower with the closed recirculation system, total pumping requirements are greater due to the various treatment options. 5 • • 3.0 Treatment Objectives The proposed hatchery has a minimum of three treatment options available for handling the 0 waste generated by the operation. These include a single pass whereby all waste products are r removed on a continuous basis as process water flows through the facility. In some instances, operations such as cleaning tanks will impart additional waste loads to the effluent on a periodic basis. In a partial treatment scenario, at a minimum, settled solids removed from hatchery rearing tanks will be removed, concentrated and disposed of off-site and the effluent from the facility AD will see decreased values for mass loading and concentration of pollutants. In the closed recirculation system, maximization of process water treatment is the goal, with collected solids removed from the system and transported off site for disposal. In such a facility, • it may be possible to discharge to the receiving waters some wastestreams such as backwash water from a multi -media filtration system. The rational would be that this type of waste would be a high volume and low concentration material that would require extensive tankage to receive and treat on site. More specifics relating to the treatment options in noted in the following S section. Cameron Engineering believes that proven existing treatment technologies available on the market for wastewater treatment can be adapted to the mariculture industry. Certainly cost issues will factor into the final design of a treatment facility. The waste components identified above as being generated within a hatchery operation are commonly handled on a daily basis at many wastewater treatment facilities here on Long Island. A brief overview of how these waste components could be addressed at a hatchery wastewater treatment facility is provided below. 3.1 Process Flow/Mass Balance The three treatment options for the hatchery wastewater are; single pass with no treatment and effluent disposal to receiving waters, single pass with settled solids removal with effluent disposal O to receiving waters and closed recirculation with only final filter backwash water discharged to receiving waters. A discussion of each option and its impact is provided below. R 0 3.1.1 Single Pass Option Literature review indicates that the single pass system is the most common method of hatchery operation in Europe. The hatcheries are located adjacent to receiving waters that serve as both the source of raw water and the location for discharge of hatchery process waters. Figure 1 " Single Pass Treatment System", illustrates the process flow and mass balance for an operation in which all raw water is only used one time in the hatchery and is directly discharged to the receiving waters. The total expected daily loadings for BOD, Suspended Solids, Nitrogen and Phosphorous are provided for a 23 MGD flow rate. The average daily concentrations for the respective waste component are 54.7 mg/l, 61.8 mg/l, 8.3 mg/l and 3.3 mg/l. Actual concentrations for the waste components will vary throughout the course of the day as solids are removed from rearing tanks and process • channels. In a single pass operation, the captured solids are discharged on a periodic basis to the receiving water, thus accounting for the applying of the total expected waste load generation to the receiving waters. Due to the nature of the receiving waters (Long Island Sound), it is doubtful that a single pass operation would be permitted. The amount of raw water needed for a single pass system are also substantial and may present another limiting factor. 3.1.2. Single Pass Partial Treatment System Figure 2 "Single Pass Partial Treatment System", illustrates an option that represents an improvement of the single pass treatment option. In a partial treatment scenario, settleable solids and suspended solids consisting of fish feces and uneaten feed material is captured and removed from the process water. Literature suggests that a significant portion of the solids can be removed effectively in this manner. With the removal of the solids, a portion of the other waste components such as BOD, Nitrogen and Phosphorous are also reduced. Values for reduction of these components is obtained from literature sources. Comparison to standard reductions achieved in municipal wastewater treatment O indicates that these assumptions are reasonable. 0 7 • 10 11 0 1/ i r • r r • V FISH HATCHERY 0 = 23 MGD SS = 1 1,873LBS/DAY 61.8mg/1) BOD = 10,508LBS/DAY 54.7 ml) N = 1,598LBS/DAY 8.3 mg/1) P = 642LBS/DAY (3.3 mg/1) PI O1: 1 RECEIVING WATER 0 = 23 MGD SS = 11.873 LBS/DAY 61.8mg/1) BOD = 10,508 LBS/DAY 54.7 mg/1) N = 1,598 LBS/DAY 8.3 mg/1) P = 642 LBS/DAY (3.3 mg/1) I "' R" CAMERON PECONIC ASSOCIATES FIGURE NO. 14 I ENGINEERING, P.C.

New York 11590 In the partial treatment system, the solids removed from the rearing tanks would be directed to concentrating devices (whirl separators) to thicken the solids prior their introduction into an on-site aerated sludge holding tank. Here, sufficient aeration capacity would be provided to maintain aerobic conditions prior to transfer and disposal of these solids. The effluent discharged from a partial treatment system indicates a reduction of BOD of 40%, SS of 75%, Nitrogen of 25% and Phosphorous of 50%. These levels represent an improvement of effluent quality over a single pass no • treatment option. Cl 3.13 Closed Recirculation Treatment System Figure 3 "Closed Recirculation Treatment System" depicts a Process Flow for a closed recirculation system. The proposed hatchery would be receiving its water supply from wells drilled and installed in proximity to Long Island Sound. The water quality would • be appropriate in regards to temperature, salinity, pH and free of pathogenic organisms. The water may require temperature adjustment prior to its introduction to the various rearing tanks. The raw water would be provided as make-up water to the closed recirculating system. It is projected that raw water needs would be approximately 10-15% on a daily basis. The bulk of the make up water is associated with losses due to backwashing polishing filters with discharge to receiving waters. The rearing tanks will be designed for the removal of settleable solids consisting of fish feces and uneaten food. The quantity of water associated with solids removal is estimated to be on the order of 1-3% of total daily flow requirements, less if concentrating or thickening of these solids is conducted. • The settled solids collected will be directed to an aerobic sludge holding tank. Process AM water is then directed to an biological unit for BOD reduction and nitrification of ammonia and organic -nitrogen to nitrate nitrogen. Biological systems suitable for this application include fixed growth systems such as trickling filters and rotating biological contactors and suspended growth systems such as activated sludge and fluidized bed reactors. All biological systems for nitrification will As include aeration to maintain sufficient dissolved oxygen levels and alkalinity addition capability to maintain alkalinity and pH levels.

Literature review does not indicate the need for denitrification in closed systems • although there has not been a substantial amount of research carried out in this area. It appears that a closed system can tolerate high levels of nitrate -nitrogen without any adverse impact occurring. Denitrification (if necessary) is a well known process that can -0 be conducted biologically utilizing fixed and suspended growth systems. Denitrification can also be accomplished chemically as in breakpoint chlorination, through ion exchange and air stripping although it is doubtful that these processes would be compatible with a fish farm operation. • Phosphorous can be removed biologically through the phosphorous luxury uptake process practiced in suspended growth systems or can be handled by the addition of chemicals 0 such as alum or sodium aluminate in a flash mixing, sedimentation system. The appropriate location for removal of phosphorous is prior to introduction to a filtration system. The chemical coagulant is added upstream of the filter to assist in the formation of a floc that can be settled out and filtered. Typical filtration systems would include multi -media (anthracite and sand) filters equipped for backwashing of captured solids from the media. In addition to removing phosphorous, the filter will serve as a polishing step for removal of suspended solids. The solids removed by .filtration could be y discharged to the receiving waters. The process water would then be subjected to a disinfection process for removal of potentially harmful bacteria. Ozonation and ultraviolet light are two suitable methods of providing disinfection. Ozonation has the added benefit of imparting additional dissolved oxygen into the process water prior to its return to the hatchery rearing tanks. The solids captured, settled and filtered out are treated in the aerated sludge holding tank. The tank would be designed to provide a dissolved oxygen level capable of providing aerobic digestion of the solids. The tank would be equipped with provisions for decanting off supernant suitable for retreatment in the aerobic biological unit. 9 1 The thickened sludge could be transported off site for proper disposal or may be processed into a product such as fish, animal or plant feed. The sludge is expected to have a high nitrogen content and therefore a potential market value. J In a closed recirculation treatment system, only the backwash water from the final polishing filter would be considered for discharge to the receiving waters. Preliminarily, the expected load from the filter is noted in Figure 3 and below: 46 BOD 525 #'slday SS 593 #'s/day 40 P 96#'s/day N 26 #'s/day These values are less than five (5%) percent of the total waste load expected to be generated within the hatchery. 3.2 Pilot Studies Due to the nature of the project and potentially high capital and operational costs associated with a hatchery operation, it is suggested that pilot studies be performed. Such pilot work can be conducted on a scale that can yield beneficial information as to the waste characterization AL and its treatability. Application of certain technologies and sizing of individual process units can be better defined through pilot work. Assumptions made in this report are based on the available literature and application of • municipal wastewater treatment knowledge. Pilot work can provide the basis for the preliminary and final design of the proposed fish hatchery. 0 10
