Research Laboratory (DRL), Santa Barbara, California,

POST -GO
CONSTRUCTION Nine AEC furnished Type IIl wave sensor equipped installations are to be located around the perimeter of the island of Oahu. The primary objective is to measure and record the amplitude and time of arrival of
long period waves over a predetermined period. The equipment will be emplaced by DRL at various predetermined bay and harbor locations and will be housed
in existing shelters or small AEC furnished utility sheds.
The installations will contain a differential sensor, data logging system, and
an armored cable connecting the emplanted wave sensing transducer with the
completely self-contained data logging system. The transducer will be installed by DRL scuba divers in approximately 30 to 50-it. of water and located
in a position to eliminate as much shore-induced phenomena as possible. H&N
will furnish voice communications between Oahu Type III sites and the Damon
Tract trailer offices.
DRL personnel will assemble at Damon Tract to prepare equipment prior to
deployment. A DRL Type III installation team of 9 persons, including scuba
divers and technical personnel, will emplace and roll up the equipment; 2
men will operate and maintain the equipment for the duration of the. program.
DRL personnel will obtain subsistence through the local economy.
