The Harboring Plan identifies planned vessel harboring locations for Shell Offshore Inc.'s (Shell) 2008 operations. The Plan was developed to best ensure Shell's crew and vessel safety, while at the same time reflect Shell's commitment to avoid unreasonable conflicts with the subsistence whaling activities of local residents. Shell intends that this Plan will remain in effect for its future Beaufort and Chukchi Seas operations. Amendments and/or updates to the Plan will be provided as future operations might dictate. The Plan identifies various harboring areas along the Chukchi and Beaufort coasts for the vessels of various drafts within Shell's fleet. These possible harboring areas may be used for various reasons whenever a vessel has to move off the project site. In addition, ports or docks are described that may be used for crew changes, resupply, maintenance, etc. Vessel harboring and docking procedures and protocols are examined with respect to timing of subsistence uses. Avoidance of unreasonable impact to subsistence resources and harvest activities is a primary objective of this Plan.
