2Q^ ABSTRACT (Caathxue aa reveram aMa ft nec ea aa ry aod tdenJIty by block number) 



The southern part of the Ohio waters of Lake Erie between Conneaut and 

 Marblehead was surveyed in August of 1977 and 1978 to acquire knowledge of the 

 nature, distribution, and geometry of the lake deposits. Primary data consist 

 of 576 kilometers of seismic reflection trackline profiles and 58 vibracores 

 ranging from 0.7 to 6.1 meters long. About 23 percent of Ohio's part of Lake 

 Erie was covered by the survey.
