Underwater Unexploded Ordnance Demonstration Project in Vieques

NOAA Office of Response and Restoration
November 2, 2006


The Office of Response and Restoration (OR&R) will be leading an underwater unexploded ordnance (UXO) hydrographic demonstration project in Vieques, Puerto Rico , from November 5 - 15. This is a joint project between OR&R, the Office of Coast Survey, the US Navy and the University of New Hampshire's Joint Hydrographic Center. A NOAA Navigational Response Team (NRT) vessel will use high resolution side scan and multibeam sonar, magnetometer, a remotely operated vehicle and SCUBA divers to determine the quantity, types and distribution of UXO and other objects on the seafloor, and the associated habitat. The project will demonstrate the effectiveness of various hydrographic technologies to help guide planning and technology choices for future underwater surveys.
