In September, TDI-Brooks undertook a geotechnical site investigation in two development areas of the southern Green Canyon lease area. The field acquisition portion of this study was conducted in September and October using the R/V BROOKS McCALL. Most of the cores were acquired in and around Green Canyon Block 822. The water depth at these
