Humbolt State University Marine Laboratory is awarded a grant to renovate a wet lab facility to facilitate maintenance and improve reliability of the recirculating seawater system, provide improved configuration of tanks for research studies, provide improved seawater system drainage, provide a safer work environment, and provide improved displays for visitors and educational outreach. Humboldt State University Marine Laboratory (HSU ML) supports a diversity of marine research and education programs, with a focus on upper division and graduate level instruction and research. Constructed in 1964 at an original size of 7,400 sq ft, it was expanded to 16,200 sq ft in 1975. The HSU ML has instructional classrooms- laboratories, offices for faculty, affiliated scientists and graduate students, and other specialized spaces. A recirculating seawater system provides high quality filtered and chilled seawater to classrooms, and supports a 3,000 sq ft wet laboratory, a set of six rectangular public display aquaria, a large circular tank with small public viewing window, and a "touch tank". A marine naturalist maintains an active K-12 education program and an estimated 12,000-15,000 visitors tour our facility each year.

洪堡州立大学海洋实验室获得一笔赠款，用于翻新湿实验室设施，以促进维护和提高再循环海水系统的可靠性，为研究提供更好的水箱配置，提供更好的海水系统排水，提供更安全的工作环境，并为游客和教育推广提供更好的展示。洪堡州立大学海洋实验室（HSU ML）支持海洋研究和教育计划的多样性，重点是上师和研究生水平的教学和研究。建于1964年，最初的面积为7，400平方英尺，1975年扩大到16，200平方英尺。HSU ML有教学教室-实验室，教师办公室，附属科学家和研究生，以及其他专业空间。海水循环系统为教室提供优质的过滤和冷却海水，并支持一个3，000平方英尺的湿实验室，一套六个长方形的公共展示水族馆，一个带有小公共观察窗的大型圆形水箱，以及一个“触摸水箱”。海洋博物学家保持着一个活跃的K-12教育计划，估计每年有12，000 - 15，000名游客参观我们的设施。
