Sequim Bay Underwater Demonstration Site
The Challenge
Numerous underwater sites have been identified by the Department of Defense (DoD) in relatively shallow water that are potentially contaminated with munitions, posing a threat to human health and the environment. To help address this challenge, PNNL-Sequim operates a demonstration area in Sequim Bay with targets and clutter placed to enable the evaluation of technologies for detection and classification of munitions underwater.
