The UNOLS Council and Fleet Improvement Committees have been working over the past few months on a response for the NSF to evaluate the need on the number of regional class research vessels to be built as part of the UNOLS fleet replacement efforts.

As the UNOLS Council continues to discuss and research this issue, it is seeking reviews and input.

UNOLS is asking the public to send thoughts to: [email protected]. The UNOLS office will collect the feedback in advance of our Council meeting discussion in October 2014.
