Good day, As you may have been informed before, Trinidad and Tobago is developing new guidelines and requirements for managing the acoustic impacts of offshore seismic surveys in Trinidad and Tobago. Working drafts of the documents are available at http://ttseismicsurveyguide.wix.com/testing for review and we would very much appreciate your comments, suggestions and concerns to make these the most effective guidelines possible. Most especially on the "Requirements for the mitigation of acoustic disturbance from offshore seismic surveys to marine life in Trinidad and Tobago". The deadline for comments is on the 19th May 2014. We will try to accommodate late comments but cannot ensure that we will be able to do so. The "Review of the acoustic effects of offshore seismic surveys" was created provide important background information which will help in reviewing the recommendations, guidelines and requirements presented here for the management of offshore seismic surveys in Trinidad and Tobago. If you think we have missed any important point please don't hesitate to let us know. The justification documents for applying for and processing CECs for offshore seismic surveys are not necessary for review but are included to give an understanding of the reasons for the decisions made in these documents. We look forward to any comments, suggestions or concerns you may wish to share. Please send them to ttseismicsurveyguidelines@gmail.com. If you have any questions you can contact us at ttseismicsurveyguidelines@gmail.com. Please feel free to pass this on to anyone who may be interested. We very much hope to hear from you. Best regards, Alësha Naranjit
