66 -- WATER SAMPLING BOTTLES POC For a copy of the specifications call Klint Demetrio at 206-526-4499. The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration, Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (NOAA/PMEL) has developed a water sampling bottle for oceanographic use that can be mounted on CTD frames and tripped by commercial sampling devices. The bottles incorporate simple machining of PVC and other plastics and can be constructed in a variety of sizes. These bottles were originally designed to minimize contamination of dissolved chlorofluorocarbon samples, but they have also been used extensively in general oceanographic water sampling programs. Marketing options exist with federal laboratories, oceanographic institutions, universities, and overseas oceanographic centers. NOAA will make available, at no charge, a copy of the specifications to all interested companies. THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT. (0052)
