Returning
Seattle:
Upon return of the Healy to
Seattle (mid October) SBI cargo will be offloaded and forwarded as specified by
the investigators.
The offloading will
commence after the crew has had a week off, so special arrangements should be
made for items that are urgently needed for follow-on projects.
Prior to disembarking in Nome on August
22, the investigators will be required to prepare and label their cargo for
dispatching to a freight-forwarder once it gets off-loaded in Seattle.
Nome and
Barrow:
Both at Nome and Barrow cargo
and personnel transfer will be by ship's helicopter or landing craft. (The Healy
can't dock at either place and will be holding a few miles off the beach)
•LTJG Woodrum and Heiberg must both be
notified of any such cargo that needs to be loaded as well as off loaded at
either Nome or Barrow.
