A37 . 01 Location of the Test Station and Test Boards 



Three test hoards of the panel tjpe were Installed June 16, 19^j 

 at different locations at the Pxjget Sound Naral Shipyard on the Sinclair 

 Inlet from Fuget Sound at Bremerton^ Washington. The first test hoards 

 designated hy the synibol USNFS-l, was Installed at the south end of the 

 Eeceiving Station Pier. The second, designated hy the synibQl USHPS-2, 

 was installed on the east side of Pier JSo. 1 (Fuel Oil Pier). The 

 third, designated hy the symbol IOIPS-3, was installed at the south 

 end of Pier No. 8. 



On June 20, 19^6, the Shipyard advised that the test hoard 

 USKPS-3 at Pier No. 8 had he en removed, chain and all, hy an unknown 

 party, and that a new hoard had heen installed on June 19, 19^1-6. The 

 operation of these test hoards is heing continued, and the results of 

 these tests have heen summarized to the end of 19^7. 



A37 . 02 Hydrographic Data 



1. UBMPS-1 (Receiving Station Pier ) . The depth of water where 

 this test hoard was installed was 20 ft at mean low water. The, tidal 

 range traa. mean low water to mean high water was 11.7 ft; frca extpraie 

 low water to extreme high water it was 19.8 ft. The velocity of the 

 current was zero. The temperature of the water at the time df instaU.a- 

 tlon was 60° P, and further data are given in the tahle helow. The 

 pollution was very slight. The salinity of the water at the depth 



of the test hoard was given as 1,000 grains per gallon on March SS, 19k6. 



2. USHPS-2 (Pier No. 1 - Fuel Oil Pier ) , The depth of water 

 where this test hoard was Installed was 22 ft at mean low water, and the 

 tidal range was the sane as that given for the first location. The 

 current was zero. The temperature of the water at the time of Installa- 

 tion was 590 F. Further teniperature data are given In the tahle. The 

 pollution was very slight. The salinity of the water at the depth of 

 the test hoard was given as l,0ltO grains per gallon on March 28, 19k6. 



3. TJ5HPS-3 (Pier No. 8 ). The depth of water where this test 

 hoard was InsteOled was 21 ft at mean low water. The tidal range was 

 the same as that given for the first location. The current was zero. 

 The temperature of the water at the time of Installation was 57° F, and 

 further tezoperature data are given in the tahle. The pollution was 

 very slight. The salinity of the water at the depth of the test hoard 

 was given as l,0l»O grains per gallon on March 28, I9U6.
