Supertankers, Sonar,
and the Rise of Undersea Noise
This 1999 Natural Resources Defense Council report provides the first comprehensive assessment of the growing problem of man-made undersea noise pollution. The study identifies the major sources of noise pollution off the U.S. coast, assesses the government’s response, and calls for a series of reforms needed to understand and respond to the emerging risks.
In support of the Planet Agenda Media report on the US Navy's Low Frequency Sonar, this report discusses, in depth, the issues and problems of the proposed system.
