“Construction on the center will probably begin next August and we hope to have it completed by the fall of 1966,” he said.
I One major advantage in having the new laboratory, lies in the fact that research on live material will be possible. Dr. Chambers explained.
“In the past, we have used the Vallero IV. Allan Hancock : Foundation floating laboratory, to collect our research material." he said. “But we were unable to bring living specimens back to campus because we had no facilities." Natural Environment The Catalina laboratory will, however, include facilities for live material. A circulating sea water system will also be installed to simulate their natural environment.
Initial construction will not include housing for larger marine life like whales and porpoises. but overall plans do include provisions for them.
