Book Description
Constantine Bohachevsky was not a typical bishop. On the eve of his unexpected nomination as bishop to the Ukrainian Catholics in America, in March 1924, the Vatican secretly whisked him from Warsaw to Rome to be ordained. He arrived in America that August to a bankrupt church and a hostile clergy. He stood his ground, and chose to live а simple missionary life. He eschewed public pomp, as did his immigrant congregations. He regularly visited his scattered churches. He fought a bitter fight for the independence of the church from outside interference – a kind of struggle between the Church and the state, absent both. He refashioned a failing immigrant church in America into a self-sustaining institution that half a century after his death could help resurrect the underground Catholic Church in Ukraine, which became the largest Eastern Catholic church today. This trailblazing biography, based on recently opened sources from the Vatican, Ukraine and the United States, brings the reader from the placid life of the married Catholic Ukrainian clergy in the Habsburg Empire to industrial America.

Book Description
Specific objectives of this study were to: (1) Provide a review of existing information on the physical, chemical and biological conditions in the vicinity of the Georgetown DMDS and provide a succinct description of biological, recreational, or other resources that might be affected by ocean disposal; (2) Describe the mineralogical, textural, and chemical characteristics of the bottom sediments in the Georgetown DMDS, in a control site, in three stations 'down current' of the DMDS, and in the navigation channel; (3) Describe the sediment bedforms present in the Georgetown DMDS, in the control area and in the three 'down current' stations with regard to their size, orientation, and composition; (4) Ascertain whether the sediment characteristics of the DMDS and the stations 'down current' have been altered by current disposal practices; (5) Describe temperature-depth, salinity-depth, and dissolved oxygen-depth profiles in the water column at all stations, and determine concentrations of metals, pesticides, PCB's, high molecular weight hydrocarbons, and the turbidities at four stations (one DMDS station, one control station, one 'down current' station, and one entrance channel station); (6) Characterize the species composition and density of benthic communities in the DMDS, in the control site, and in the 'down current' stations; (7) Determine the degree of bioaccumulation of pollutants in selected sedentary benthic organisms collected from the DMDS, control site, and 'down current' stations; and (8) Assess the effects of the present dredged material disposal practices on bottom communities in the DMDS and the three 'down current stations.
