  Brent Spar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Throughout the decommissioning process, Shell based its decisions on estimates of the quantities of various pollutants, including PCBs, crude oil, heavy metals and scale, which it had calculated based on the operating activities of the platform, and the quantity of metal that would remain in the structure after decommissioning was completed.
Shell's decision to change their plan for disposal of the facility undermined the Conservative government, and can be cited as one contributing factor leading to the landslide victory of New Labour in the 1997 general election.
Shell were particularly criticised for having thought of this as a "Scottish", or "UK" problem, and neglecting to think of the impact which it would have on their image in the wider world.

 Tell Shell - Oh, Canada   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Shell also had continuing pipeline problems, as the Alberta Energy and Utilities Board ruled in October 1999 that a highly corroded section of Shell’s Carbondale pipeline had to be replaced, two other lines decommissioned, and a part of the operation then located in Screwdriver Creek Valley had to be moved.
Shell acknowledged that these included assuming that the presence of regional oil and gas development meant that public concern about new development would be reduced.
For Shell, the Rocky Mountain House rejection was perhaps just a little skirmish — a rare loss in the broader global stream of dozens of Shell projects that are typically approved in any given year.

 Public Use
Most vessels anchor along the northern tip of the island, however, some boats also anchor on the southern tip and on the eastern side of the island where there is wave protection.
Commercial uses on the island of Shell Key are not allowed unless permitted by a concession or other appropriate permit obtained from Pinellas County for use specifically within the Shell Key Preserve and consistent with the management plan.
In the case of Shell Key, controlling the numbers of visitors to the island is not practical since there are several miles of shoreline in an area with a huge boating population.

Top shells were collected from July 2003 to August 2004 on a monthly basis at a depth of 10-20m.
Gonad index of top shell from the north increased from May and reached its peak in June, while the southern top shells increased from March and peaked in June.
The data indicated that gametogenesis of top shell in the south initiated gametogenesis two month earlier than the northern top shell, probably due to warmer water temperature and better food condition in the south.
