The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has selected KSC’s OSHA Education Center to conduct specialized training aboard the NOAA research vessel, Henry B. Bigelow. This fisheries survey ship supports NOAA’s mission to protect, restore, and manage the use of living marine, coastal, and ocean resources through ecosystem-based management. Its primary objective is to study and monitor Northeast Marine Fisheries throughout New England.
The education center will provide a customized program in hazardous waste operations and emergency response, designed especially for the ship’s environment and the crew of scientists, mariners, and military officers.
