of navigation and recreation projects, the related control of water 

 quality, conservation and enhancement of fish and wildlife in the coastal 

 zone, and an interest in development of coastal electric power. 



In general, the collection contains any water or earth control struc- 

 ture, and any large structures supported by piles, jackets, or the sea 

 bottom, useful in the geographic area from tidal marshland and estuary 

 to the Inner Continental Shelf. Related patents for seabed foundations 

 and structural anchors, small -craft harbor structures, and fouling or 

 corrosion prevention systems are presented. Also included are construc- 

 tion methods and equipment, emphasizing dredges and piledrivers. Inven- 

 tions useful in coastal research, such as bathymetric and seismic survey 

 systems, water and seabed soil samplers, instruments for measuring water 

 and bottom properties, and laboratory flumes and wave generators, com- 

 prise part of the patent collection. Also presented are pollutant detec- 

 tion, control, and removal equipment for use in open water, and ocean 

 energy extraction devices. 



Although mining, transporting, and prospecting for offshore minerals 

 are not subjects of direct interest to the Corps, many devices used in
