註釋This report presents findings of a public review of the effects of potential offshore oil & gas exploration & drilling activities in Sydney Bight and southern Gulf of St. Lawrence regions where several companies have proposed to conduct seismic surveys. The review included a series of public meetings and receipt of submissions from interested parties. After an overview of the review process, the report summarizes the companies' exploration proposals, the characteristics of the natural environment & economy of the region, and the companies' assessments of the potential environmental & socio-economic effects of their proposals. The report then reviews the issues that dominated the meetings & submissions: protection of the marine environment, coexistence of seismic exploration with the region's fishing industry, the specific effects of exploration activities, regional development & socio-economic impacts, mitigative measures, issues affecting municipal governments & First Nations, and policy issues. The report concludes with recommendations arising from the review.
