Stereo Baited Remote Underwater Video Stations (BRUVS) were successfully deployed and retrieved at each of the 9 banks and shoals (Baracuda East and West Shoals, Sheldon Shoal, Wave Governor Bank, Heywood Shoal, Echuca Shoal, Goeree Shoal, Eugene McDermott Shoal, Vulcan Shoal). Deployments were restricted to 250 m. In general 24 stereo BRUVS were deployed at each shoal however, given its smaller size, only 16 BRUVS units could be deployed Wave Governor Bank and still maintain a spacing of >250 m. Additional BRUVS deployments were made at Heywood Shoal, the largest of the shoals surveyed. Deep water BRUVS were additionly collected on the edge Barracuda East shoal in depths >50m.
