Abstract

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) promotes, coordinates, and executes the science and technology programs of the Department of the Navy. Acting principally through universities, government laboratories, and nonprofit organizations, the ONR sponsors basic and applied research, and advanced technology development, in ocean acoustics and many other disciplines. In these efforts the ONR and its associates comply with a host of environmental statutes and executive orders, and with Navy policy regarding marine environmental protection. This paper reviews these requirements as they apply to the ONR’s ocean acoustic efforts, and the processes through which the ONR carries out its environmental responsibilities.
