Passive acoustic monitoring using High-frequency Acoustic Recording Packages (HARPs) was conducted at two sites in the Navy’s Northwest Training Range Complex; one on the continental shelf near Cape Elizabeth (CE) and the other at the shelf slope near Quinault Canyon (QC). The inshore shelf site was monitored from December 2011 until January 2012, and the offshore shelf slope site was monitored from December 2011 until July 2012. In this report, information on the presence of marine mammals and anthropogenic sounds collected at these sites is presented.
