The Exxon Valdez Oil Spill (EVOS) Trustee Council selected the Nearshore Vertebrate Predator Project as one of three ecosystem studies adopted under the 1994 EVOS Restoration Plan. This multi-project, multi-species study was designed to assess whether or not populations are recovering, whether isolated processes constrain recovery, and the potential activities to facilitate recovery. USGS serves as the lead trustee agency for this proposed $6.8 million, 4-year study: "The Mechanism of Impact and Potential Recovery of Nearshore Vertebrate Predators."
