			Abstract:
				 Moorings recovered:2(#445,446, deployed 
				#94015 WHITE HEATH Oct 4-5, 1994.)  
				Moorings deployed: 3(#450,451,452 all 
				recovered #95032 WHITE HEATH Jun 13-14, 
				1995.)
			Purpose:
				    The objective of the program is 
				to conduct long term monitoring of currents, 
				sediment transport, and physical/chemical 
				characteristics of sediments in western 
				Massachusetts Bay.   This cruise will 
				be the 17th in a program jointly funded 
				by the USGS and the Massachusetts Water 
				Resources Authority. The US Coast Guard 
				is generously providing ship time and 
				at-sea support. Time-series sediment 
				trap and a remotely operated suspended 
				matter sampler will be deployed on the 
				subsurface mooring.
