      Boyas implementadas en el Area de ?Big Bend? en la Florida agregan recursos al Programa Centinela

      FECHA: Junio 26. 2010 17:24:53 CST

      N?meros telef?nicos importantes
      ? Para reportar crudo en el litoral ? para ofrecer sus servicios como voluntario: (866) 448-5816
      ? Para sugerir servicios, productos ? tecnolog?a alterna para ayudar en la operaci?n: (281) 366-5511
      ? Para ofrecer su buque como recurso voluntario al Programa de Buques Voluntarios (EEUU: Vessel of Opportunity Program): (281) 366-5511
      ? Para presentar reclamo para da?os sufridos: (800) 440-0858
      ? Para reportar fauna contaminada por el crudo: (866) 557-1401

      MIAMI - Tres boyas se han implementado cerca de Cabo San Blas, el punto m?s meridional del Condado Franklin , Florida, para ayudar a supervisar las corrientes de agua en el ?rea de Big Bend. Una cuarta boya fue desplegada para supervisar las aguas al norte del Eddy Franklin.

      Las boyas, auto-localizadas, con referencias del marcador de boyas (SLDMB), son desplegables en el aire, un est?ndar oceanogr?fico de superficies que informan sus posiciones de GPS cada 30 minutos, a trav?s de un sistema de sat?lite a un centro de sistema operacional de Guardacostas. Los miembros del Mando Unificado de puesto de mando de la pen?nsula de Florida (FPCP) est?n utilizando estas boyas adicionales para obtener m?s informaci?n sobre el movimiento de aguas cerca de la Pen?nsula de la Florida y el Eddy Franklin. Un avi?n de ala fija HC-144 ?Ocean Sentry? del centro de entrenamiento de aviaci?n de Guardacostas en Mobile, Alabama, despleg? las primeras tres boyas. El cuarto fue desplegado desde un avi?n de ala fijada C-130 de la Guardia Costera de la Estaci?n A?rea de Clearwater, Florida. Los SLDMB se utilizan rutinariamente por la Guardia Costera durante casos de b?squeda y rescate para determinar las corrientes del oc?ano superficial de la escena. Doce boyas ya est?n desplegadas en el Golfo de M?xico para apoyar a los ocean?grafos del equipo HAZMAT de NOAA en Seattle, que realizan diariamente las previsiones de la marea negra.
      El FPCP sigue vigilando por signos de invasi?n de aceite a trav?s del Programa Centinela, as? como los esfuerzos de vigilancia del departamento de protecci?n ambiental de Florida y la Comision de Pesca y Conservaci?n de Vida Silvestre de la Florida. Las actividades incluyen patrullas de aviones, buques y veh?culos a lo largo del norte de los condados costero de la Florida. Los barcos de motor, Sea Sun y Ocean Star est?n patrullando activamente el bucle actual al oeste de las Tortugas Secas, usando las observaciones visuales y redes de colecci?n para supervisar y evaluar esta ?rea. El Richard L. Becker est? patrullando una amplia regi?n del central del Golfo de M?xico para ofrecer supervisi?n en tiempo real y superficie cerca de la Franklin de Eddy.

      Las trayectorias de la derivas de todas las barcazas Guardacostas , actualmente desplegados en el Golfo de M?xico se pueden verse en:
