Investigation of Vessel-Generated Ballast Water<br />
Mission Need: Determine if vessel-generated water is an option to meet Ballast Water Discharge Standards.<br />
<strong>Project</strong> Objectives:<br />
• Inventory, categorize, and characterize available methods for generating<br />
water on board a vessel.<br />
• Evaluate characteristics of various types of water generated on vessels (e.g.,<br />
“potable” and “technical” water) and assess their acceptability as ballast<br />
water under U.S. & international regulations.<br />
• Investigate availability, quantity, quality (particularly regarding living<br />
organisms), cost, practicability, etc.<br />
