    It has been the plrpose of t h i s project to provide the basic biological and geological data together with summary guidelines which will allow the Florida Dept. of Environmental Regulation and project engineers to make the necessary permitting and design decisions for beach nourishment project in worm reef areas. The present work seeks to determine the tolerance of P. lapidosa to sediment burial, the tolerance of these organisms to exposure to hydrogen sulfide, the tolerances of these organisms to heavy silt loads in the water, etc. (37pp.)
