• 4 Potential Sites

• NPS in accord, but feel Robert Moses is just a ‘better’ location for us

• Requests for:– GIS applications of CODAR data– National ‘spill’ tracking functionality, perhaps

for National Database

Site 1 – Convention Area (Lighthouse)

• Site in dunes• Must be low profile (no shed, weather enclosure

with AC)• Power nearby but likely final solution requires

underground power• Plug nearby appears to be 120 V

Site 2 - Annex

• Power or cables over or under road, either not easy

• Far from water

Site 3 - Firehouse

• Same as annex, all issues

Site 4 - Incinerator

• Best infrastructure

• Least impact location visual and footprint

• A bit further drive to get to

• On ‘commercial’ land
