These data were collected under Permit 75-17 issued by the Minerals Management Service (MMS). The MMS acquired these data on September 1, 1976, under Contract 14-08-0001-16418. Under Permit 75-17, the seismic contractor, Dresser Industries, Inc., used three vessels. The M/V Canadian Olympic used an EPR Sleeve Exploder as a sound source.
