The June medical trip is now scheduled to end on June 9 rather than 13. 2. Dr. Noshkin, LLL, requests that his June trip be of a 10-day duration beginning June i4 for the purpose of lagoon sampling at Bikini and Enewetak instead of open ocean. He is in the process of formalizing his request for change. We ask for any input you may wish to give us on this matter, or on anything else you wish concerning the ship, its operations or scheduling. There has been further informal talk of possible schedule changes and we must know your firm intent well in advance in order that U.S. Oceanography can plan maintenance, vacations, etc. We want at all cost to avoid a situation when the vessel is unused for a sustained period duc to inadequate notice of proposed change. The above has been coordinated with Holmes & Narver, which has the subcontract with U.S. Oceanography Inc., the owner of the Liktanur II.
