UNOLS Van Pool; 2009-2011

作为一项合作努力，特拉华大学和俄勒冈州立大学提议为大学国家海洋学实验室系统(UNLS)运营两个VAN池。东海岸的范泳池将在特拉华州运营，西海岸的范泳池将在俄勒冈州立大学的设施中运营。这两个池都申请资金用于支持国家科学基金会、海军S海军研究室、美国海岸警卫队和国家海洋和大气管理局资助海洋科学研究。这些水池将在容器上提供便携式实验室面包车(通用、同位素、清洁和冷藏)。他们将根据所要求的面包车类型向机构或机构收取日费率，并将负责面包车和存储/支持设施的所有运输和维护。

As a collaborative effort, the University of Delaware and Oregon State University propose to operate two Van Pools for the University National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS). The East Coast Van Pool will be operated out of Delaware and the West Coast Van Pool will be operated out of the Oregon State University facilities. Both pools request funds to be utilized in support of National Science Foundation (NSF), Navy?s Office of Naval Research (ONR), United States Coast Guard (USCG) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) funded scientific research at sea. The pools will provide portable lab vans (general purpose, isotope, clean and cold) on vessels. They will charge a day rate to the institution or Agency based on the type of van requested and will be responsible for all shipping and maintenance of the vans and the storage/support facilities.
