the United States APPENDIX A: General Environmental Guidelines for the South Pole The South Pole has unique properties that make it an ideal location for certain types of scientific research. For example, its position remote from human influence makes it ideal for monitoring global background levels of atmospheric constituents. Isolation from light pollution, electromagnetic interference (EMI), sound and vibration, is important for astrophysical research, with the latter two being especially valuable for seismological observations. The thick ice sheet contains a natural record of atmospheric constituents that can be analysed to interpret past climate, and is also an ideal medium for installation of sensitive instruments to detect sub-atomic particles. The position on the Earth’s axis of rotation is advantageous for many atmospheric and space science studies. It is important that guidelines are followed so that these qualities may be protected to the fullest extent practicable so that the productivity of the research can be maximized. %HIRUH\RXWUDYHOWRWKH$UHD x (QVXUHWKDW\RXUSODQQHGDFWLYLWLHVIROORZWKHUHTXLUHPHQWVRIWKH&RGHRI&RQGXFWLQWKH0DQDJHPHQW 3ODQWKH(QYLURQPHQWDO*XLGHOLQHVLQ$SSHQGL[$WKHVSHFLILFJXLGHOLQHVWKDWDSSO\ZLWKLQWKH ASMA No. 5 – Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, South Pole 6FLHQWLILF=RQH $SSHQGL[% JXLGHOLQHVIRU5HVWULFWHG=RQHV $SSHQGL[& DQGWKHJXLGHOLQHVIRU 1RQ*RYHUQPHQWDO9LVLWRUVLQ$SSHQGLFHV'DQG( x 3ODQDOODFWLYLWLHVVXFKDVVFLHQWLILFH[SHULPHQWVLQVWDOODWLRQRIHTXLSPHQWWUDYHOFDPSVIXHOKDQGOLQJ DQGZDVWHPDQDJHPHQWZLWKWKHDLPRIPLQLPL]LQJHQYLURQPHQWDOLPSDFWV x (QVXUHWKDWDOOHTXLSPHQWVXSSOLHVDQGSDFNDJLQJDUHSODQQHGVRDVWRDYRLGWRWKHPD[LPXPH[WHQW SUDFWLFDEOHWKRVHFRPSRXQGVOLVWHGLQ7DEOH%$SSHQGL[%DVSURKLELWHGZLWKLQWKH&OHDQ$LU6HFWRU &$6 DQGDWWKH$WPRVSKHULF5HVHDUFK2EVHUYDWRU\ $52 x (QVXUHWKDWDOOHTXLSPHQWVXSSOLHVDQGSDFNDJLQJDUHSODQQHGVRDVWRPLQLPL]HWKHDPRXQWRIZDVWH JHQHUDWHGZKHQDW6RXWK3ROH 7UDYHODQGDFWLYLWLHVZLWKLQWKH$UHD x :KHUH SUDFWLFDEOHNHHSWRGHVLJQDWHGRUHVWDEOLVKHGWUDFNVDQGEHDZDUHRIWKHVLWHVSHFLILFJXLGHOLQHV LQ$SSHQGLFHV%DQG&DQGLQSDUWLFXODUDYRLGWKH&OHDQ$LUDQG4XLHW6HFWRUVDQGWKH5HVWULFWHG =RQHVZKHUHSULRUDXWKRUL]DWLRQLVUHTXLUHGIRUDFFHVV x 9HKLFOHVVKRXOGDYRLGWKH$52µ1R9HKLFOHV¶DQG$52µ0HWHRURORJLFDO7RZHU¶5HVWULFWHG=RQHV $SSHQGL[& x 2EVHUYHWKHGHVLJQDWHGFURVVLQJSRLQWDQGEHDFRQZDUQLQJVRQWKHURDGEHWZHHQWKHHOHYDWHGVWDWLRQDQG WKH'DUN6HFWRUVFLHQFHEXLOGLQJV x :KHUHSUDFWLFDEOHYHKLFOHVVKRXOGEHSDUNHGRYHUDVHFRQGDU\FRQWDLQPHQWXQLWRUDGULSWUD\ x 7KHVNLZD\VKRXOGEHPDUNHGVRLWLVFOHDUO\YLVLEOHIURPWKHDLUDQGPDUNHUVXVHGVKRXOGEHZHOO VHFXUHGDQGGXUDEOH )LHOGFDPSV ORFDWLRQDQGVHWXS x 1RQ*RYHUQPHQWDO9LVLWRUVVKRXOGXVHWKHGHVLJQDWHGFDPSVLWHZLWKLQWKH2SHUDWLRQV=RQHZKHQ FDPSLQJZLWKLQWKH$UHD x 7KHIRRWSULQWRIWKHGHVLJQDWHGFDPSVLWHVKRXOGEHWKHPLQLPXPVL]HSUDFWLFDEOH x (QVXUHWKDWHTXLSPHQWDQGVXSSOLHVDUHSURSHUO\VHFXUHGDWDOOWLPHVWRDYRLGGLVSHUVLRQE\ZLQG 8VHRIPDWHULDOVDQGHQHUJ\ x (YHU\WKLQJWDNHQLQWRWKH$UHDVKRXOGJHQHUDOO\EHUHPRYHG WRWKHPD[LPXPH[WHQWSUDFWLFDEOH x $FWLYLWLHVWKDWFRXOGUHVXOWLQWKHGLVSHUVDORIIRUHLJQPDWHULDOVVKRXOGEHDYRLGHG HJXVHRIIODUHV RU VKRXOGEHFRQGXFWHGLQVLGHDEXLOGLQJRUWHQW HJZKHQFXWWLQJVDZLQJRUXQSDFNLQJPDWHULDOV x ([SORVLYHVVKRXOGQRWEHXVHGZLWKLQWKH$UHDXQOHVVDSSURYHGE\D1DWLRQDO3URJUDPIRUXVHLQVXSSRUW RIHVVHQWLDOVFLHQWLILFRUPDQDJHPHQWSXUSRVHV x :KHUHSRVVLEOHHQVXUHWKDWQRWKLQJLVOHIWIUR]HQLQWRVQRZRULFHWKDWPD\DEODWHRXWDQGFDXVHODWHU FRQWDPLQDWLRQ x 8VHHQHUJ\V\VWHPVDQGPRGHVRIWUDYHOZLWKLQWKH$UHDWKDWKDYHWKHOHDVWHQYLURQPHQWDOLPSDFWDVIDU DVSUDFWLFDEOHDQGPLQLPL]HWKHXVHRIIRVVLOIXHOV )XHODQGFKHPLFDOV x 6WHSVVKRXOGEHWDNHQWRSUHYHQWWKHDFFLGHQWDOUHOHDVHRIIXHORUFKHPLFDOV)RUH[DPSOH UHJXODUFKHFNV VKRXOGEHPDGHWRHQVXUHDOOIXHOYDOYHSRVLWLRQVDUHFRUUHFWO\VHWDQGIXHOOLQHFRXSOLQJVDUHVHDOHGDQG VHFXUH x (QVXUHWKDWVSLOONLWVDQGVHFRQGDU\FRQWDLQPHQWXQLWVDSSURSULDWHWRWKHYROXPHRIWKHVXEVWDQFHDUH DYDLODEOHZKHQXVLQJFKHPLFDOVRUIXHOV 7KRVHZRUNLQJZLWKFKHPLFDOVDQGIXHOVVKRXOGEHIDPLOLDU ZLWKWKHLUXVHDQGZLWKDSSURSULDWHVSLOOUHVSRQVHSURFHGXUHV x &KHPLFDODQGIXHOFRQWDLQHUVVKRXOGEHVHFXUHO\SRVLWLRQHGDQGVHDOHGSDUWLFXODUO\ZKHQVWRUHGRXWVLGH x $OOIXHOGUXPVVKRXOGEHVWRUHGZLWKVHFRQGDU\FRQWDLQPHQW x )XHOFDQVZLWKVSRXWVVKRXOGEHXVHGZKHQUHIXHOOLQJJHQHUDWRUVRUYHKLFOHV x 9HKLFOHRLOFKDQJHVVKRXOGEHFDUULHGRXWZLWKDGHTXDWHSURYLVLRQIRUFRQWDLQPHQWDQGSUHIHUDEO\LQVLGH x *HQHUDWRUVDQGYHKLFOHVVKRXOGEHUHIXHOOHGRYHUGULSWUD\VZLWKDEVRUEHQWVSLOOSDGV ZKHQRXWVLGH ATCM XL Final Report :DVWHDQGVSLOOV x &OHDQXSDQ\VSLOOVDQGRUUHOHDVHVWRWKHPD[LPXPH[WHQWSRVVLEOHDQGUHSRUWWKHORFDWLRQ V LQFOXGLQJ FRRUGLQDWHVWRWKHDSSURSULDWH1DWLRQDO3URJUDP ASMA No. 5 – Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, South Pole APPENDIX B Guidelines for the Scientific Zone The Scientific Zone encompasses the majority of the ASMA and is divided into four Sectors – Clean Air, Quiet, Downwind and Dark (Maps 1-4). The Clean Air Sector (CAS) ensures a near-pristine air- and snow- sampling environment for atmospheric and climate systems research. The Quiet Sector is an area where noise and equipment activities are limited to minimize vibration effects on seismological and other vibration- sensitive research. The Downwind Sector provides an area free from obstructions for balloon launches, aircraft operations, and other ‘downwind’ activities. The Dark Sector aims to provide an area of reduced light pollution and low electromagnetic noise to help facilitate astronomy and astrophysical research. Following are descriptions of the objectives of and special guidelines for activities in each sector of the Scientific Zone.
