Senator Mikulski Issues Congratulatory Letter on CBIBS Buoy Launch
May 17, 2010
On May 14, Senator Barbara Mikulski, chairwoman of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice and Science, issued a congratulatory letter to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) on the launch of its latest smart buoy in the Potomac River. This event, which occurred at National Harbor just south of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge near Washington, D.C., was attended by Friends of the John Smith Trail board and staff, among other partners.
This newest NOAA buoy, like the others along the trail, records oceanic and atmospheric conditions in the Chesapeake, while also providing information about the Capt. John Smith Trail.
