I | This progress report presents data from field and laboratory work during the period August I to October 31, 1985. Also included are the results of observations on gonad development in samples collected in July, August, and September,1935. | ||
All field work during this quarter was carried out by GPU Nuclear personnel. | All field work during this quarter was carried out by GPU Nuclear personnel. | ||
Water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and pH were measured and recorded at each of the 20 stations during the three periods of exposure panel exchange. | Water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and pH were measured and recorded at each of the 20 stations during the three periods of exposure panel exchange. | ||
At the time of the August panel exchange, the racks at Stations 13 and 14 had been found removed from the piers and were lying on the bottom. In September, the rack at Station 3 was found to have been vandalized with the rack positioned so that seven panels were exposed to the air. The panels were not completely dry, so they may not have been in an exposed position for very long. | At the time of the August panel exchange, the racks at Stations 13 and 14 had been found removed from the piers and were lying on the bottom.

The regular panels removed in September from Stations 1, 4A, 5, 6, 9 and 12, as well as the 12-month panels from Stations 2, 7,11,12 and 17 were in the refrigerator awaltu.g processing when power was lost for 30 hours due to a hurricane. Eight percent of the shipworms removed from the September panels were alive at the time of examination. | The regular panels removed in September from Stations 1, 4A, 5, 6, 9 and 12, as well as the 12-month panels from Stations 2, 7,11,12 and 17 were in the refrigerator awaltu.g processing when power was lost for 30 hours due to a hurricane. Eight percent of the shipworms removed from the September panels were alive at the time of examination. | ||
In October, when refrigeration was not interrupted, only two percent of the shipworms were alive at the time of examination, so it is not possible to determine whether the loss of refrigeration in September had anything to do with the number of surviving shipworms in the panels. | In October, when refrigeration was not interrupted, only two percent of the shipworms were alive at the time of examination, so it is not possible to determine whether the loss of refrigeration in September had anything to do with the number of surviving shipworms in the panels. | ||
I | I Only four specimens of Bankia gouldi were identified in the 1-and 6-month panels examined during the quarterly report period. | ||
Gonadal conditions in shipworms from July through September collections were typical of those usually found in September. Most of the shipworms in July and August were in the ripe through spent condition, with a few newly settled specimens showing early active stages. By September, most of the few shipworms collected were either spent or had no evident gonad tissue. Two of the September specimens were in the early active stage. | Gonadal conditions in shipworms from July through September collections were typical of those usually found in September.

SUMMARY
I I
This progress report presents data from field and laboratory work during the period August I to October 31, 1985. Also included are the results of observations on gonad development in samples collected in July, August, and September,1935.
All field work during this quarter was carried out by GPU Nuclear personnel.
Water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and pH were measured and recorded at each of the 20 stations during the three periods of exposure panel exchange.
At the time of the August panel exchange, the racks at Stations 13 and 14 had been found removed from the piers and were lying on the bottom. In September, the rack at Station 3 was found to have been vandalized with the rack positioned so that seven panels were exposed to the air. The panels were not completely dry, so they may not have been in an exposed position for very long.
Due to dock repair at Station 16B, the exposure panel rack at Station 16B was I
relocated 20 feet closer to shore at the time of the October panel exchange.
The regular panels removed in September from Stations 1, 4A, 5, 6, 9 and 12, as well as the 12-month panels from Stations 2, 7,11,12 and 17 were in the refrigerator awaltu.g processing when power was lost for 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br /> due to a hurricane. Eight percent of the shipworms removed from the September panels were alive at the time of examination.
In October, when refrigeration was not interrupted, only two percent of the shipworms were alive at the time of examination, so it is not possible to determine whether the loss of refrigeration in September had anything to do with the number of surviving shipworms in the panels.
I Only four specimens of Bankia gouldi were identified in the 1-and 6-month panels examined during the quarterly report period.
Gonadal conditions in shipworms from July through September collections were typical of those usually found in September. Most of the shipworms in July and August were in the ripe through spent condition, with a few newly settled specimens showing early active stages. By September, most of the few shipworms collected were either spent or had no evident gonad tissue. Two of the September specimens were in the early active stage.

PROGRESS REPORT FOR THE FORTY '.>ECOND QUARTER on STUDY OF WOODBORER POPULATIONS IN RELATION TO THE OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION to GPU NUCLEAR CORPORATION November 30, 1985 by Robert E. Hillman and C.I. Belmore REPORT NO.15315 For the Period August 1,1985 to October 31,1985 from BATTELLE New England Marine Research Laboratory 397 Washington Street Duxbury, Massachusetts 02332 INTRODUCTION Battelle's New England Marine Research Laboratory is conducting an investigation to determine whether the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station is affecting the resident marine borer population in Oyster Creek to the extent that the population is cc.ntributing significantly to marine borer-caused damage in Barnegat Bay.
A description of the program and procedures used may be found in the ninth anntul report titled, " Study of Woodborer Populations in Relation to the Oyster Creek Generating Station," dated May 15,1985.
This report presents data for the forty-second quarterly period from August I to October 31,1985.
I
2 PROCEDURES AND INTERIM DATA I
Exposure Panels I
Personnel from GPU's Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station retrieved and replaced the long-term and short-term exposure panels with new untreated pre-soaked (for two weeks) panels at the 20 exposure sites in Barnegat Bay and adjacent waters (Figure 1) during the periods of August 12-13, September 9-10, and October 14-15,1985.
At the time of the August panel exchange, the racks at Stations 13 and 14 had been found removed from the piers and were lying on the bottom. In September, the rack at Station 3 was found to have been vandalized with the rack positioned so that seven panels were exposed to the air. The panels were not completely dry, so they may not have been in an exposed position for very long.
Due to dock repair at Station 163, the exposure panel rack at Station 163 was relocated 20 feet closer to shore at the time of the October panel exchange.
The regular panels removed in September from Stations 1, 4A, 5, 6,9 and 12, as well as the 12-month panels from Stations 2,7,11,12 and 17 were in the refrigerator awaiting processing when power was lost for 80 hours9.259259e-4 days <br />0.0222 hours <br />1.322751e-4 weeks <br />3.044e-5 months <br /> due to a hurricane. Eight percent of the shipworms removed from the September panels were alive at the time of examination.
In October, when refrigeration was not interrupted, only two percent of the shipworms were alive at the time of examination, so it is not possible to determine whether the loss of refrigeration in September had anything to do with the number of surviving shipworms in the panels.
Table I describes the geographical locations of the exposure sites. Data from the laboratory examination of the panels are presented in Tables 2 through 5.
I Water Quality I
Salinity, water temperature, dissolved oxygen and pH were taken at each exposure panel site by the GPU Nuclear field team. Results for August, September and I
October,1985 are presented in Tables 6 through 3.
Teredinid Gonadal Development Studies Table 9 shows the gonad condition of teredinid borers collected in July, August, and September,1985.
Included are results from panels exposed for periods ranging from I to 12 months.
