MARINE SCIENCES AND RESEARCH ACT 19 
“limited to the’. This language is suggested in the Navy-Defense 
Department comments. 
4. Page 3, line 11, strike out “construction of’? and substitute 
‘modernization of existing and construction of new Government and 
civilian’? preceding the phrase “laboratory and shore facilities’. 
Suggested in Navy-Defense Department comments. 
5. Page 3, lines 15 and 16, strike ‘including but not” and insert 
“which may include but not be’. Suggested by Navy-Defense 
Departments. 
6. Page 3, line 18, insert after “buoys” the words ‘instrumented 
marine towers, wave gages’. Suggested by Navy-Defense Depart- 
ments. 
7. Page 3, line 25, and page 4, line 1, insert after the word ‘“‘under- 
graduate”’ the words ‘‘and graduate’’, after the word ‘‘chemistry”’ the 
word ‘“‘mathematics,” and after the word “biology” the words “‘, engi- 
neering, limnology, meteorology,’’. This increases the fields from 
which prospective oceanographers would be recruited for advanced 
education in the marine sciences, and was proposed by the Committee 
on Oceanography, the American Society of Limnology and Oceanog- 
raphy, and with respect to mathematics and engineering, by the Navy- 
Defense Departments. 
8. Page 4, line 7: To the word “field” add the letter ‘‘s’’. 
9. Page 4, line 8: Substitute the words ‘‘marine science’”’ for the 
word ‘‘oceanography’’. 
10. Page 4, line 9, insert the word ‘‘classification” after the word 
“behavior” ending line 8. Suggested by scientists in a number of 
universities and institutions. 
11. Page 4, line 20, insert ‘“‘and oceanographic surveys” after the 
word “sciences”. ‘This brings section 2, numbered paragraph 7, 
relating to international cooperation, into conformity with previously 
stated policy objectives. 
12. Page 4, line 23, strike ‘‘oceanographic”’ and substitute ‘‘marine”’ 
after the word ‘‘of’’, and insert the words “and surveys’’ after 
‘“Yesearch’’. 
13. Page 5, line 17, insert the words ‘‘marine research” after the 
word “‘of”’ and the word “‘surveys” after “‘oceanographic.”” These are 
clarifying changes. 
14. Page 5, line 25, insert “the Smithsonian Institution,” after 
“Survey,” and on page 6, line 1, after “Standards,” insert ‘‘the United 
States Army Corps of Engineers (including the Beach Erosion 
Board),’”’. The purpose of these amendments has been previously 
explained in the report. 
15. Page 6, line 17, strike ‘“‘oceanograph and fisheries research and 
surveys” and insert ‘“‘marine research, surveys, and taxonomic pro- 
erams’’. This deals with evaluation of programs by the National 
Science Foundation and is intended to make the language more 
specific. 
16. Page 6, line 20, insert “in these scientific fields” after the word 
‘“Government”’. A perfecting amendment. 
DIVISION OF MARINE SCIENCES 
Sec: on 3 of S. 2692 would amend the National Science Foundation 
Act of 1950 to include a Division of Marine Sciences and a Divisional 
Committee of this Division. Six scientists selected on a basis of
