The National Park Service’s Submerged Resources Center (SRC) received a FY02 Legacy Grant (Project No. 02-170) for research directed to understanding the nature and rate of natural processes affecting the deterioration of the USS Arizona in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The USS Arizona Long-Term Management Strategies Research Project is designed to be multi-year, interdisciplinary, and cumulative, with each element contributing to developing an overall management strategy designed to 1) minimize environmental hazard from fuel oil release and 2) provide the basic research required to make informed management decisions for long-term preservation. This project has been designed to serve as a model because it will have direct application to preservation and management of iron and steel historical vessels and to intervention actions for other leaking vessels.
