Figure i-2 Deck and Science Divisions recover a scientific mooring during HLY-11-03. Figure i-3 CGC HEALY escorts T/V RENDA through the ice en route Nome. ii iv Executive Summary Arctic West Summer-Winter 2011 (AWSW-11) consisted of four scientific research missions and the landmark Nome Energy Support Operation. HLY-11-01 was conducted by researchers from Stanford University and NASA using various optical tools on the ice, in the water, and in the air, to measure light properties. HLY-11-02 was a joint operation with the Canadian Coast Guard collecting data in support of delineation of the U.S. and Canadian Extended Continental Shelves. The mission was focused on multibeam sonar bottom-mapping and escort of CCGS LOUIS S. ST. LAURENT to facilitate use of sensitive multi-channel seismic equipment. HLY- 11-03 was a recurrent mission to conduct annual service of hydrographic moorings to study the Alaskan Boundary Current. HLY-11-04 marked the first ever winter research mission. Data and samples were collected to characterize the overwintering behavior of the copepod. The Nome Energy Support Operation extended the deployment to escort the Russian tanker vessel RENDA to deliver 1.3 million gallons of fuel Nome, AK. Following successful delivery of fuel to Nome, HEALY returned to Base Seattle on 05 February 2012 after 254 consecutive days away from homeport.

  • The U.S. Coast Guard Anticipates Deploying USCGC HEALY For
    Credit: U.S. Coast Guard photo by Petty Officer Patrick Kelley The U.S. Coast Guard anticipates deploying USCGC HEALY for operational exercises in and around Baffin Bay in late summer 2021, which will include a transit through the Northwest Passage. The UNOLS Office and the AICC are working with the Coast Guard to help the research community identify and coordinate Science of Opportunity uses of HEALY during this deployment. The Northwest Passage transit will commence from Dutch Harbor, AK in mid-August and proceed east through the Northwest Passage ending in Nuuk, Greenland in mid-September. This portion of the trip is principally a transit and will afford the opportunity for passive science programs only (pending approval by the Government of Canada). The Coast Guard anticipates making up to ~20 berths available to science during the transit through the Northwest Passage. HEALY’s return transit to Seattle is not yet defined. The Baffin Bay cruise will embark from Nuuk, Greenland on or around September 14, 2021 and debark in Nuuk on or around October 19, 2021. This nominal time frame will be used to support science programs but there is strong potential that USCG operations could interrupt science operations on an infrequent basis. The Coast Guard anticipates making up to ~30 berths available during exercises in and around Baffin Bay. The Coast Guard is requiring that researchers interested in conducting science aboard HEALY during either its transit east through the NWP, or during its operations in and around Baffin Bay, submit a one-page Letter of Interest (LOI) by July 15 2020.

  • Chronology of U.S. Coast Guard Polar and Ice Operations
    CHRONOLOGY OF U.S. COAST GUARD POLAR AND ICE OPERATIONS 1867- United States acquires the Alaskan Territory from Russia - after the purchase USRC Lincoln carried the U.S. delegation for the transfer ceremony -the Revenue Cutter Service becomes the presence of the Federal Government in the new territory including the transportation of judges, marshals, prisoners, and witnesses; conduct of courts; enforcement of customs and immigration statutes; and enforcement of laws related to fisheries and wildlife. 1868- USRC Wayanda ordered to Alaskan waters to protect the interests of the United States and prevent the killing of fur-bearing mammals (seals) 1877- U.S. Army troops are withdrawn from the Alaskan territory. Governance falls to the Treasury Department and its representative, the Collector of Customs. As a law enforcement arm of the department, the Revenue Cutter Service is the embodiment of the law. 1880- USRC Corwin undertakes the first of what would become annual cruises in the Bering Sea to enforce the laws and provide a government presence in Alaska. 1882- Michael Healy, first African-American to command a U.S. government vessel becomes captain of USRC Corwin. He would later command USRC Bear and institute the transfer of reindeer from Siberia to Alaska. 1884- USRC Bear came to the rescue of the US Army’s Greely Expedition which had set up a camp to study the winter conditions of Ellesmere Island. Relief ships in 1882 and 1883 had failed to reach the party. USRC Corwin cruised along the Alaskan ice pack to gather samples of seals for the Smithsonian Institution. 1885 Charles H.
