We must have a vessel contract in place to turn around and conduct our passive acoustic monitoring work in the western North Atlantic region. If not awarded, we will be unable to both retrieve over 1 million dollars in equipment currently deployed, as well as lose invaluable data that is part of long-term monitoring efforts for species we are mandated to monitor.
