2 DR. GRASSLE: In the next paragraph, the second sentence, I 



3 suggest we change that to "Although constituents of the muds may not 



4 result in direct mortality--" and then delete the parenthesis. 



5 DR. BOTHNER: Where are you? 



6 DR. GRASSLE: Page 25b, second paragraph, starting with "The 



7 principal effect of the drilling muds upon the 



8 biota--" 



9 "Although constituents of the muds may not result in direct 



10 mortality, there may nevertheless be an effect." That is the way the 



11 sentence should read, the rest is all right. 



12 I am not sure we need the first sentence. Maybe we do--I guess we 



13 do, yes. 



14 DR. VALENTINE: When you are done with that, could we go back to 



15 page 25. 



16 DR. GRASSLE: We are done with it. What is on 25? 



17 DR. VALENTINE: In that section "D" about "It is unlikely, et 



18 cetera, et cetera--this conclusion is based on similar worst case 



19 scenarios." 



20 Then we jump to 25a. Where does that addendum come in, right 



21 after metals? On the sheet we have it says "See addendum, part E." 



22 That part at the bottom of 25a should come under "D," right? 



23 DR. GRASSLE: Yes. I guess that really this is an editorial 



24 question. Maybe we should just put an asterisk there and put this 



25 calculation as a big footnote. 



26 (Simultaneous discussion.) 



27 DR. GRASSLE: This calculation is 25a and the top of 25b. That 



28 calculation would be a big footnote to the last sentence of section "D." 



29 (Simultaneous discussion.) 



30 DR. GRASSLE: Do you like footnotes as an editorial thing? That 



31 the calculations be footnotes to the simple conclusion? 



32 DR. VALENTINE: In that footnote, which is the bottom of 25a, I 



33 think it should say, "Measurements near Lydonia Canyon head." "The 



34 canyon head" does not tell us where it is.
