18 II. CMS Modeling Overall Results Deposition General Conclusions Hypothetical Jetty Extensions Results based on limited modeling for purpose of identifying potential feasibility Results suggest that all modifications cause impacts Only one potential option provides more benefit than negative impact, but both are very small No magic bullet! Requires management regardless of solution 18
