The site visit shall include diving in Antarctic waters and may include training and evaluations of the skills of the research divers. The Contractor shall present reports to the SDCB and participate in its annual meetings and ad-hoc meetings as required. In the event required, GEO/OPP may request the contractor to perform a detailed investigation of diving mishaps or to coordinate evaluation of equipment for use in Antarctic at an additional cost to be negotiated.
