o Work-day length will be determined each day by the field party chief in consultation with the vessel master. The government Field Party Chief has final authority except for work stoppage resulting from uncontrollable situations such as unsafe weather and sea conditions and other safety-of-life-at-sea considerations as determined by the vessel master.

/Acid Rain program is a large national program assessing the natural sources of sulfur and nitrogen to the atmosphere and is specifically intended to further the understanding of the role of the ocean in global and regional sulfur and nitrogen cycles. Reduced sulfur and nitrogen compounds are produced biologically in the ocean surface.
