伍兹霍尔海洋研究所提议为三艘考察船提供技术服务，这三艘考察船均为大学-国家海洋实验室系统(海洋实验室系统)研究船队的一部分。将支持的船只包括R/V Atlantis、R/V Knorr和R/V Ocean。作为其基本业务的一部分，他们将为每个海洋研究项目提供一名(大洋洲)或两名(亚特兰蒂斯，克诺尔)技术人员，并将维护、校准和向合格用户提供其共用研究仪器池中的物品，包括使用亚特兰蒂斯和克诺尔上的多波束测深仪。他们还提议为调查人员提供几项专门支持，并单独收费。2009年请求的专门支持包括1)USCGC Healy上的技术支持，2)R/V Knorr上的Long Core业务，以及3)对海洋教育协会(SEA)的支持。这项提案中的预算是为期3年的持续赠款的第一年。

Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution proposes to support technical services on three research vessels, all operated as part of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) research fleet. Ships to be supported include R/V Atlantis, R/V Knorr, and R/V Oceanus. As part of their basic operations they will provide one (Oceanus) or two (Atlantis, Knorr) technicians on each seagoing research project, and will maintain, calibrate and provide for qualified users items from their pool of shared-use research instrumentation, including use of the multibeam echosounders on Atlantis and Knorr. They also propose to provide several elements of specialized support for investigators, with separate charges. Specialized support requested for 2009 includes 1) Technical support aboard the USCGC Healy, 2) Long Core Operations aboard R/V Knorr, and 3) Support for the Sea Education Association (SEA). The budget in this proposal is for the first year of a 3-year continuing grant.
