Emphasis has been placed on the macro-benthos, macro-zooplankton, and non-planktonic crustacea and fishes. The following report presents preliminary analyses of a portion of those data collected prior to any disturbance of the bay areas by construction activity or plant operations.power plantsenvironmental impactmarine organismsmarine fishplanktonmarine crustaceanszooplanktonspecies diversityconstructionmarine ecologycoastal ecologymarine faunaSpecies diversity and abundance of the bottom fauna, macroplankton, commercially important crabs and shrimp, and fishes before and after the construction of the Cedar Bayou Generating Station.
