3 Identifying, Verifying, and Establishing Options for Best Management Practices for NOBOB Vessels Objectives: Assess the effectiveness of specific ballast management practices on sediment accumulation and characteristics within ballast tanks. Assess the effectiveness of specific ballast management practices to reduce the density and viability of organisms and resting stages. Characterize source invertebrate populations and assess salinity toxicity as a barrier to prevent transfers of high risk species to the Great Lakes in ballast tanks.

21 Conclusions Although ballast tanks are generally a lousy place to deploy water quality instruments: Instrumentation can be effective for helping to determine timing, amounts, and chemistry of ballasting Instrumentation can be used to help understand water quality changes that occur in ballast water during voyages Instrumentation has helped verify sedimentation rates and the potential for sediment resuspension and redistribution or flushing from the tank There may be promise, with improved sensor technology, to use in-tank instrumentation to help verify compliance with future ballast treatment requirements and standards.
