Abstracts from Selected Meetings/Conferences
Fate and Transport of Hydrocarbons and Fuel Oxygenates
The following are selected meetings/conferences where the Toxics Program researchers gave presentations on the fate and
transport of hydrocarbons and fuel oxygenates. Natural attenuation of contaminants was a focus of many of these
presentations.

Exploration and Production at Annual GSA Meeting, Salt Lake City, UT, October 16-19, 2005
- USGS co-sponsors special session on "Organic Compounds in Near-Surface
Environments as Drivers on the Redox-Reaction Highway: A Tribute to the Career of Mary Jo Baedecker" at the
GSA’s Annual Meeting, Denver, Colorado, November 7-10, 2004
