2^ DESCRIPTION QF PROPOSED ACTION
Mark Producing, Inc. plans to conduct exploration activities on South
Marsh Island Area Block 65 (OCS-G 7702).
As proposed, the Plan of Exploration for South Marsh Island Area Block
65 consists of drilling five (5) wells.
At this time, planned commencement date for Well "A" and a l l associated
activities in Block 65 is on or about October 1, 1985.
(a) TRAVEL MODES. ROUTES AND FREQUENCY
The proposed exploration activity for federal lease OCS-G 7702 wi l l
require the use of a jack-up r i g to d r i l l the exploratory wells on South
Marsh Island Block 65. The rig w i l l be moved to South Marsh Island Block 65
from an unknown location in the Gulf of Mexico.
In addition to the jack-up, service boats w i l l be used to transport
equipment, material, personnel and supplies to the d r i l l sites. I t is
estimated that the crew boats and supply boats w i l l make daily trips from
support bases located in Morgan City, Louisiana. The proposed travel route
for these vessels begins at Morgan City, Louisiana. From this point the
vessels w i l l normally move through Atchafalaya Bay, to the Gulf of Mexico and
then to South Marsh Island Block 65.
Helicopter flights to South Marsh Island Block 65 w i l l average 10 trips
per week and w i l l originate froro and return to Morgan City, Louisiana. The
helicopters will normally take the most direct route of travel between the
two points when air traffic and weather conditions permit.

(b) SUPPORT JASE
The proposed a c t i v i t i e s w i l l u t i l i z e a support base at Morgan City,
Louisiana. The base provides 24-hour service, a radio tower with phone
patch, dock space, office space, a parking l o t , equipment and supply storage
space, drinking and d r i l l water, etc. These proposed exploration a c t i v i t i e s
w i l l help to m;tintain this base at i t s present levels of a c t i v i t y . No
expansion ... j -iny. ical f a c i l i t i e s or the creation of new jobs i s expected
to res :l' i i .e /ork planned i n conjunction with Block 65.
(c) N ::• SUPP' .w FACILITIES
No new onshore support f a c i l i t i e s :;uch as nev land bases, refineries,
storage f a c i l i t i e s , pumping stations, boat docks, helicopter pads or fueling
f a c i l i t i e s are likely to be required because of the a c t i v i t i e s planned for
Block 65. Any newly discovered deposits of hydrocarbons should help to
maintain onshore f a c i l i t i e s and a c t i v i t i e s at or near their present levels
rathar than result in some type of expansion.
(d) NEV TECHNIQUES OR UNUSUAL TECHNOLOGY
No new techniques or unusual technology w i l l be required for this
operation.
(e) MAPS OF PROPOSED ACTIVITY
As shown by the attached Vicinity Plat, the proposed a c t i v i t y i s located
approximately 75 miles from the Louisiana shore.
-3-
( f ) TRANSPORTATION OF OTI. ANn/ng £AQ
I f producible hydrocarbons are found they are l i k e l y to be transported
to shore through connections with the pipelines already in place near Block
65.
3,. PI-CP.IPTiON OF THE AFTT̂ CTED ENVIRONMENT
laj_ PHYSICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL
v1 / Commercial Fishing
South Marsh Is land *rea Block 65 i s located approximately 75 miles
f ' .u» shore where the water depth i s approximately 124-132 f e e t . Shrimp and
menhaden are the primary f i s h rg resources found i n t h i s area.
The placement of a d r i l l i n g r i g on Block 65 may remove a po r t i on o f
the seaf loor and waters abeve from harves t ing by commercial f . s h e r i e s .
A d d i t i o n a l l y , the waters adjacent to the d r i l l s i t e s mav become temporar i ly
t u r b i d due to d r i l l i n g operat ions . These operat ions should have no
s i g n i f i c a n t impac* on commercial f i s h e r i e s .
(2) Shipping
South Marsh Island Area Block 65 is clear of a l l fairways and
anchorage areas. Operations in this area w i l l be in accordance with the U.S.
Coast Guard's r e f l a t i o n s regarding navigation standards. ihere should be
l i t t l e or no impact on shaping resulting fron. the proposed operations.
-4-
(3) Re treat lon
The proposed a c t i v i t i e s , which are primarily confined to South
Marsh Island Area Block 65 are located approximately 75 miles south of the
Louisiana coastline. Along the Coastline at Vermilion Bay, West Cote Blanch
Pay, and Atchafalaya Bay are located several beaches and barrier islands
including Marsh Island and Point Au Fer Island which are recreational
resources i n the area. To protect these recreational resources, Mark
Producing w i l l comply with OCS Order No. 7 regarding pollution prevention and
control, and has established an Oil Sp i l l Contingency Plan which was approved
by the Minerals Management Service. There are no adverse impacts expe-ted as
a result of the proposed a c t i v i t i e s .
(4) Cultural Resources
South Marsh Island Area Block 65 lies inside the Cultural Resource
Sensitivity Demarcation Lin'j (USDI, 1979, Visual 1) and, therefore, f a l l s in
an area where cultural ••esources are l i k e l y to be found. An archaeological
survey was required for Sout1" Marsh Islan* Area Block 65. Mark Producing,
Inc. agrees that i f any s i t e , structure, or object of historical or
i rchaeolog' al s gnificance should be discovered during operations, the
finding- w i l l be immedia *»ly reported to the Supervisor and every reasonable
e f f o r t w i l . be menu to piesei .e and protect the cultural resource from damage
un t i l the Supervisor has given direction as to i t s preservation.

Kr
(5) EcologicalIy Sensitive Features
There are no marine sanctuaries, refuges, or preserves i n the
immediate area of South Marsh Island Area Block 65. Along the coastal shores
of Ve mil ion, Iberia and St. Mary Parishes, Louisiana, the ecologically
sensitive features include oyster harvest areas, the bald eagle feeding
ground, wading bird rookeries, and f i n f i s h and s h e l l f i s h nursery and spawning
grounds. Service vessels for the proposed a c t i v i t i e s may pass through or
near these sensitive coastal areas; however, these a c t i v i t i e s w i l l have no
effect on these sensitive features.
(6) Existing, Pipelines and Cables
There are no pipelines traversing South Marsh Island Block 65.
(7) Other Mir.eral Uses
The a c t i v i t i e s proposed for South Marsh Island Block 65 w i l l have
no direct or indirect impact on other mineral uses.
18) Ocean Dumping
Ocean dumping is prohibited in this area.
(9) Endangered or Threatened Species
Mark Producing, Inc.'s proposed operations at South Marsh Island
Area Block 65 are located approximately ?5 miles south of the Louisiana
coastline off Vermilion, Iberia, and St. Mary Parishes, Louisiana. These
coastal shores and upland areas are the habitat of several endangered or
threatened species. These species include the Arctic peregrine falcon, the
red-cockaded woodpecker, the bald eagle, the American Alligator, the red
wolf, Kemp's ridley sea t u r t l e and the Brown Pelican. These species may be
affected by the development of coastal lands and/or the occurrence of o i l
-6-
s p i l l s which- may affect the species directly or through thei r food sources.
Since the proposed a c t i v i t i e s include no plans for the development of coastal
lands, the impact on endangered or threatened species i s primarily based on
the occurrence of o i l s p i l l s .
On pages I I I - 5 through 111-72 of the Final Environmental Impact
Statement for OCS Sale No. 47 there i s a discussion of the factors for
estimating the significance of o i l s p i l l s and their impacts. The impacts on
various endangered and threatened species w i l l depend on the nature of the
s p i l l , weather conditions, proximity of s p i l l to species, tolerance for o i l
of species, and the response time and effectiveness of the o i l s p i l l clean-up
and containment services. Given these variables, the impact on the various
endangered or threatened species w i l l vary from l i t t l e or no effect to
serious.
The experience of o i l and ges exploration i n the Gulf of Mexico
indicates that there i s a small probability of occurrence of an o i l s p i l l .
The Draft Environments1 Impact Statement (DEIS) for OCS Sale No. A-62 and 62
indicates on page 71 that, the "aggregate 15 year s p i l l rate i s .0009 percent
of the t o t a l volume produced." Table 7, page 73, of the DEIS indicated that
there have been only 30 incidents of o i l s p i l l s for th i s 15 year period. The
probability remains low because of the level of technology used by the o i l
and gas industry to insure safe and responsible operations. Mark Producing,
Inc., as a prudent operator w i l l take the necessary ..'easures to reduce the
probability of o i l s p i l l s . Mark Producing, Inc.'s proposed operations in
7
South Marsh Island 65 should pose no threat to any endangered or threatened
species.
(b)SOCIO-ECONOMIC
(1) Related New Employment
Not applicable at this time.
UNAVOIDABLE ADVERSE IMPACTS
The d r i l l i n g of the proposed wells should result in minimal unavoidable
adverse impacts. The impact on water quality and marine organisms would be
result of a non-toxic turbidity whi^h lasts only a shore time and would be
limited to a localized area. The impact on ai r quality would also only be
local in nature and would be quickly dissipated by the environment, there
should be no impact or effect on any onshore area.
SUMMARY
ropos-d activity wiU be carried oui and completed with the guarantee of
following items:
1. The best available and safest technologies will be utilized
throughout the project. This includes meeting a l l applicable
requirements for equipment types, general project layout, safety
systems, ̂ nd equipment and monitoring systems.
2. All operations will be covered by a Minerals Management Service
approved Oil Spill Contingency Plan.
3. All applicable federal, state and local requirements regarding air
emission, and water quality and discharge for the proposed
