Hi Greg,
Thanx! This will help a bunch. Understand your need for the walk in frig and it’ll be ready to go. Not sure how to help out with the congestion during your mob. We’ll have the same circus for ours (+ the Kilo Moana I hear). I’m sure SIO has a plan (and a B/U for that plan).
Best, Dave

We are turning that into another lab for the Ra group and it will have to be empty and turned off by the 14th. We'll have some things that need to go in the walk in freezer, but shouldn't affect you using it.

We'll be bringing in 6-8 tractor trailers on the 14th, plus other deliveries (e.g., gas cylinders) so I hope SIO and NASA, or the Cruise Terminal, will have a "traffic cop" to control the inevitable issues.

All of our shipments will be coordinated for both ships by the NASA ESPO folks, but the trucks are not leaving till probably the 15th. Wondering if we can leave our frozen / refrigerated samples on the Revelle until our shipments depart while you guys MOB for GEOTRACES. Folks are concerned about samples staying super cold in a truck on the dock. Not sure of the volumes, but the samples would all be packed in coolers in the walk ins ready to go…
