Safety Programs

Overview

The Port Republic site is an extension of the 淫性视频 campus and falls under the governing policies and procedures of the University.  The Marine Operations Safety and Operational Procedures guide serves to highlight the site-specific policies and procedures; however, it is important to note that all University-wide policies and procedures apply to the employees, students, visitors and facilities of the Port Republic site.

Safety resources for marine operations

Marine operations are defined here as those activities that engage individuals in activities aboard a vessel and within the marine or extended marine environments (tidal rivers).  淫性视频鈥檚 Marine Operations Standard Operating Procedures (MOSOP) generally follow, to the extent practical, the guidelines established in the Scientific Boating Safety Association (SBSA) Program Guidelines. The University is both a member of the Scientific Safe Boating Association and the University National Oceanographic Laboratories System (UNOLS). 

淫性视频-owned vessels (>20鈥 LOA) are designated by the United States Coast Guard as Oceanographic Research Vessels (ORV) under the provisions provided by CFR 46 Subchapter A part 3  鈥 Oceanographic Research Vessels.  All vessels are maintained to the standards set forth for uninspected vessels designated as ORVs and are inspected by the USCG at least every two years.
