Description:This document contains project instructions for EX-19-06. This cruise will include 24 hours/day acoustic exploration mapping operations. The expedition will commence on October 5, 2019 in North Kingstown, Rhode Island (2578 Davisville Road, North Kingstown, Rhode Island 02852) and conclude on October 26, 2019 in Miami, Florida (US Coast Guard Base Miami Beach, 100 MacArthur Causeway, Miami Beach, FL 33139). Mapping operations will focus on areas generally deeper than 200 meters off the U.S. East Coast with a focus on the Blake Plateau. The first four days of the cruise will entail transiting from Rhode Island to the primary surveying area, with the rest of the cruise spent conducting systematic surveying operations on the Blake Plateau. Mapping operations will occur mainly within the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ), with a very small amount of mapping planned just inside the Bahamian EEZ’s northern boundary if permits are approved at that time.
