... On April 1, 2009, the NACE Technical and Research Activities committee distributed the link to all members of NACE technical committees and the NACE Research committee. As of April 23, 2009, 172 respondents had started the survey, and 79 of them (45.9 percent)

... All forms of corrosion presented on the ques tionnaire as choices -- general, pitting, crevice, microbially influenced corrosion, galvanic, erosion, and environmental cracking -- were described as "sometimes an issue." Pitting corrosion was most frequently described as "my biggest issues," with general corrosion coming in second. Microbially influenced corrosion was most frequently described as "not an issue." The consequence that most concerned the respondents was safety.

... Twenty-five percent felt that future research should be applied, and the rest were divided between fundamental and "don't know." When asked where future research should focus specifically to enable ad vances that would help to develop new and/or better mitigation technologies, the top three areas were monitoring (50 percent) , coatings (45 percent)
