SummaryThe Division of Near-Shore Research (DNR), under the above listed task order, provides installation services and maintenance for Gulfport/Pascagoula PORTS. The system will be maintained and operated within the requirements set forth in the task order.

DNR will monitor the network and make the necessary or directed repairs in order to ensure continuous data retrieval. In addition to daily QC checks using the CO-OPS Extranet interface, DNR has also set up autonomous downloads of station data within our own database. This allows DNR to access the data in case the Extranet is inaccessible or unavailable to others.
