This estimate does not include the coastal oil trench and coastal oil deposit as contamination in those areas was not caused by invasion related oil spills modelled by OSCAR.

The Panel notes that the mudflats are characterized by low levels of oil contamination, and the evidence provided is not sufficient to demonstrate that the contamination is causing environmental damage.

12. Preliminary chemical analysis provided some indication of wide spread, low level oil contamination of the fine grained sediments.

The third claim unit is for damage to cultural heritage resources in Iran caused by contamination from the oil well fires.

The bulk of the preserve should consist of intertidal supratidal habitats similar to those most affected by invasion related oil contamination.

The Panel notes that the presence of mines and other ordnance initially prevented the removal of nearby oil contamination, and reconstruction operations in the oil fields further delayed remediation efforts.

2.2.3 Free of fecal contamination .

No significant contamination was detected.

Found it free from contamination.

A metal bore hole casing protects the oil from contamination with sand residues and the oil is forced up the bore by the pressure of gases trapped in the pocket of the deposit.

No more contamination of our sea..

In support of this claim unit, Iran has submitted information, including oil spill tracking (through remote sensing analyses and oil transport and fate models), analyses of spatial gradients of contamination, evaluations of depth gradients in contamination, fingerprinting analyses, citations to international investigations of marine pollution in Iran, references to newspaper reports and interview data.

However, the Panel notes that there are differences in the severity of oil contamination, losses in ecological services and expected recovery times in different areas.

In order to assess the oil contamination on its shoreline resulting from invasion related oil spills, Kuwait applies the models that it uses in its assessment of lost aquatic biota as described in paragraph 434 above.

The second claim unit is for damage to or depletion of terrestrial and agricultural resources in Iran caused by contamination from the oil well fires in Kuwait.

Drinking water contamination may be local in effect.

contamination of ground and surface waters with pesticides

This cover protects the internal moving parts from contamination

If contamination occurs chuck life can be significantly reduced

If such a contamination is present, shouldn't we investigate?

Kuwait also states that the impact of oil contamination on the remaining areas of mudflats is uncertain and that the mudflats are a fragile but critically important biological area.

Oil. Oil.

Oil, oil.

However, in the view of the Panel, although some contamination of Iran's marine resources might be attributable to the oil spills or the oil well fires resulting from Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait, there are other possible major causes of such pollution.

Kuwait states that the OSCAR is a state of the art model which has been applied in many parts of the world and compares its model results to a limited set of observations of oil contamination following the invasion related oil spills.

Protection of groundwater from contamination and water resource management issues.

Increasing water contamination in Central Asia is not so much

Iraq further objects to Saudi Arabia's use of oil contamination levels as a means for quantifying the extent of damage, pointing out that exposure is not considered sufficient to demonstrate injury .

The Panel also found that the damage from oil contamination to the shoreline between the Kuwait border and Abu Ali constituted environmental damage directly resulting from Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait.

Based on information from studies published in the scientific literature, Saudi Arabia estimates that 100,000 wading birds were killed either directly by oil contamination or indirectly because of the loss of forage.

It is essential to prevent salmonella contamination in hen egg production.

A contamination layer at the interface may effectively widen the barrier.

This system is efficient without the possibility of a second contamination.

Iraq accepts that data presented by Kuwait indicate possible remaining oil contamination in certain locations in the upper intertidal zone of Northern Kuwait Bay that could be a result of the 1991 conflict.

In particular, Iraq refers to exploration for oil operation of refineries and petrochemical industries overgrazing extraction of groundwater operation of oil tankers in the Persian Gulf and contamination resulting from the Iran Iraq conflict as sources of environmental damage both before and after the invasion and occupation.

This will avoid contamination of the waycover seals with the sticky residue

Farming was restricted, due to salinisation and radioactive contamination in these areas.

The evidence also shows that contamination levels are extremely variable, ranging from non detectable amounts to 810,000 ppm. The severity of the 1991 oil spills and the extent of the areas affected are well documented.

Now I know some of you may be thinking, Oil, oil, oil.

Needs a little oil. Needs a little oil, needs a little oil.

Please note that this hoax is separate from the issue of radioactive contamination.

In 2009, dolphin meat was taken off school menus because of the contamination.

The Programme is concerned with the contamination of seafood and coastal bathing areas.
