Protect the Atlantic from Seismic Surveys!

Please oppose loud seismic testing off the South and Mid-Atlantic coasts!

Click here to take action!

The Department of Interior has proposed seismic surveys off the Atlantic coast to assess potential oil and gas resources. The proposed surveys will employ loud and damaging technologies and are intended to advance future offshore energy development.

Seismic surveys will produce major impacts on marine mammals, sea turtles, fishes and other marine life in the Atlantic ocean. The blasts from seismic air-guns are incredibly loud and have been shown to interfere with the feeding, mating, communication, and migration activities of numerous species, including endangered whales.

 Please  make your voice heard and tell the Department that you support "Alternative C" (No Action).
