55 Years of Earth Day!
Since April 22, 1970 — that’s 55 years! — we’ve celebrated Earth Day to raise environmental awareness and support for environmental protection.

Below are a few projects our employee owners have worked on to help protect Earth through contracts with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
- Monitoring marine mammal health as an indicator for estuarine health (NOAA National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science [NCCOS])
