This paper is one of twelve working papers prepared for a study of the international environmental risks of large-scale coastal energy developments in the Gulf of Maine - Bay of Fundy region. The study was conducted by a team of investigators from the University of Southern Maine, the University of New Hampshire, and Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia. Support for the project was provided by the William H. Donner Foundation, Inc. of New York, NY and the Max Bell Foundation of Toronto, Canada. This paper examines potential environmental injuries, such as oil spills, caused by coastal energy development in the Bay of Fundy-Gulf of Maine region. To examine these potential impacts, this resource explores private lawsuits brought upon past coastal energy developers.
