To facilitate this, 16 surveys were undertaken by APEM Inc. and Normandeau Associates, Inc. (Normandeau-APEM Team) between December 2019 and November 2020 to provide baseline information for consideration in the assessment of potential impacts. Additional surveys were collected between March 2021 and October 2021 and can be accessed at https://seamap.env.duke.edu/dataset/2187.Please contact data provider2019120720201104ground conditionCompleteNone plannedNorth Atlantic-70.7434-70.248941.055140.6321 NoneMarine Animal SurveyMarine BiologySeabirdsMarine mammalsSea turtlesVisual SightingVesselNoneNorth AtlanticTaxon coveredMarine mammalsseabirdsSea turtlesRays and sharksIntegrated Taxonomic Information SystemUnknownNot applicableDownloaded April, 2004http://www.itis.usda.gov/Refer to the contact information of the datasetRefer to the contact information of the datasetmailing and physical address
