Copies of forms are included on this website
to familiarize users with them. The Pre-Cruise
Forms include the Vessel
Pre-Cruise Plan, Scientific
Personnel Information, Berthing
Plan, and if applicable, an Application
for Use of Radioactive Material. On foreign
cruises a Research Cruise Prospectus and Foreign
Clearance Request is required. It is necessary
to allow 45 to 180 days advance notice of cruise
departure in order to obtain foreign clearance
via the State Department. Foreign cruises require
completing a cruise summary, to be returned
to this office within thirty (30) days after
the completion of the cruise, for submission
to the State Department. This is a requirement
in obtaining clearance, and compliance is necessary.
The following forms should be completed by
the Chief Scientist before leaving the vessel.
These forms are available from the Captain.
Should the Chief Scientist need assistance in
completing these forms, the Captain will be
glad to help.
1) Ship Utilization Data
2) Research Cruise Assessment
3) ROSCOP II
