Description:This report presents a collective summary of the first year activities of the University of New Hampshire and the Raytheon Company on "The Science and Technology of Utilizing the Bottom Resources of the Continental Shelf." The primary initial objectives of this project involves the development of an effective technology to allow remote classification and assessment of the sea floor and sub-bottom sediments for both physical and engineering properties. Development of these capabilities, when teamed with the ecological, legal, and economic technologies will form a broadly based system model for a national program directed toward the exploration and utilization of our country's continental shelf resources. The information presented in this document reviews and discusses the achievements of the project's first year efforts. More specific P discussions of several specialized aspects of this program have been previously presented in the series of detailed Technical Memoranda which I supplement this report. The goals attained during this initial period, p, however, can be conveniently segregated into three categories; management, * educational, and technical.
