Please check the link for your cruise at http://www.sio.ucsd.edu/supp_groups/shipsked/2001/allships2001/2001RR/Kennan/Kennan.html There you will find your Ship Time Request and other information pertaining to your cruise. If you wish to correct or add more information, please contact the Ship Scheduling Office by e-mail at shipsked@ucsd.edu or by phone at (858) 534-2840.

Although most chief scientists already know the following, and full details are provided in the Chief Scientist's Manual, I have been asked to reiterate in each scheduling letter the following important rules;

1) The designation as chief scientist cannot be re-delegated without approval from this office.

2) The chief scientist is responsible for the accomplishment of the scientific work of the cruise, and is responsible for the behavior of all members of the scientific party whether they normally work for him/her or not.

3) Hard liquor and drugs are strictly prohibited aboard ship. No alcoholic beverages may be brought aboard without specific permission from the captain. The chief scientist is expected to inform the scientific party of this and to enforce the rules with respect to scientific party members.

4) No radioactive material or unnatural concentrations of stable isotopes may be brought aboard by anyone without advance permission from the SIO Isotope Committee. All spills of material of this nature must be reported promptly.

5) The chief scientist is expected to cooperate with the master in enforcement of safety regulations aboard. At the end of the cruise, reports for various government agencies are due; a packet containing forms will be distributed by the Ship Scheduling Office at a later date.

Further information can be found in the Chief Scientist's Manual and the R/V Roger Revelle Handbook on our web site at
