R/V Thomas_G._Thompson 2007 FINAL Schedule
=======================================================================
1/09/08: Modify allocation of days on TN-213, Dec. 2007.
11/14/07: Addition of a day to the NOAA NDBC DART mooring transit/cruise
to recover an additional buoy off San Diego.
10/29/07: NUWC (Freeley) Cruise canceled by program office. NOAA NDBC
Tsunami DART mooring work added for December transit south before
McGuire NSF mission.
10/02/07: Minor edits. No change to day count.
07/19/07: Correction to a transit entry.
07/18/07: Intra-cruise transit for the end-of-year McGuire cruise
spelled out in this version.
07/17/07: Add transit for Freeley and McGuire cruises. Add McGuire
cruise. Add one day for NEPTUNE Canada work at the end of July.
06/25/07: HOWE November Cruise cancelled. Changes to late part of this
year pending. A new version will be released soon.
05/14/07: After discussion with Program Manager, the NSF Bruland Alaska
cruise is now shown as starting from Seattle and ending up in Dutch
Harbor for a total of 39 days. The return transit from Dutch Harbor to
Seattle, after the NOAA Stabeno cruise will be charged to that agency.
Total day count and departure/arrival dates remain the same. Also, the
two days for Neptune Canada on the July/August academic cruise are
canceled due to the inavailability of the ROPOS ROV. This changes the
total day count for the year--down from 257 to 255.
03/29/07: This version corrects the dates of the P.Franks cruise,
starting and ending one day earlier -- same duration of cruise.
02/05/07: Message from P.I. Freeley clarifies cruise length. This
version adjusts schedule to reflect this information.
01/30/07: Delete two days from Weingart trip as per telecon of 1/29.
Move start of P. Franks cruise by two days later from Apr. 29 to May 1
to permit more time for de-mobe from prior cruise and mobe. Add two
pending days for Neptune Canada to McDuff cruise in August. Delete
Pringle cruise shown as non-op previously as this cruise will now take
place in Sept. utilizing different platforms. This permits earlier
start date for the NUWC Freeley cruise. Total day count for the year
remains the same.
01/08/07: Clarify Ohman cruise needs, and break out transits separately.
11/27/06: Latest e-mail indicates PlusNet Project (Pringle et. al.) has
decided upon September dates - precluding use of Thompson.
11/25/06: This version tentatively adds two days to the Weingart project
and breaks out transit to/from Alaska for the Bruland & Stabeno legs.
Pringle cruise has not yet decided between the November dates shown on
this schedule and a September option that precludes use of the Thompson.
11/7/06: This version adds Pringle cruise in November but sequence and
dates of the Student Cruises, Howe, Pringle, and Freeley remain to be
finalized.
10/13/06: This version adds information provided by Freeley NUWC/ONR
Ship Time Request.

Jan.9, 2008: Allocation of days changed as per correspondence with SAIC and
NDBC. Additional day now charged as a NOAA day.
Nov. 14: Add one day to recover additional buoy 120 nmi. off San Diego on the
way into port. This day is funded through SAIC.
Buoy Deployment and Transit: reposition ship to San Diego (originally for ONR
Freeley mission--now canceled--and the NSF McGuire mission.) NOAA adds days to
accomplish replacement of the DART moorings off the U.S. West Coast.
Originally, NDBC arranged with the Navy to split the transit 5 days for NOAA
and 2 days for Navy. With cancellation of the Navy work, the split is here
shown as 5 days for NOAA and 2 days for NSF.
