PREFACE 



This report is one of a continuing series which describes results of the CERC Inner 

 Continental Shelf Sediment and Structure (ICONS) Study, previously referred to as the 

 Sand Inventory Program. 



Michael E. Field, a CERC geologist, prepared the report with the assistance and 

 supervision of Dr. David B. Duane, Chief of the Geology Branch. As part of the research 

 program of the Engineering Development Division the ICONS Study is under the general 

 supervision of Mr. George M. Watts, Chief of the Division. The field data for the study were 

 collected by Alpine Geophysical Associates, Inc., under contract DA-08-123- 

 CIVENG-65-57, funded by CERC but awarded and administered by the Jacksonville 

 District, Corps of Engineers. 



Cores collected during the field program are stored at the University of Texas, Arlington 

 Texas 76010. Microfilm of the seismic profiles, the 1:80,000 navigational plots and other 

 ancillary data are stored at the National Solar and Terrestrial Geophysical Data Center 

 (NSTGDC), Rockville, Maryland 20852. Requests for information relative to these items
