In an initial effort to assess environmental research in other countries, the author made selected visits to the United Kingdom, Federal Republic of Germany, the State of Israel, NATO, and the Commission of European Communities in Brussels, Belgium. Results of the author's visits are presented as specific environmental topics such as hydrocarbon bioremediation, groundwater treatment, ordnance demilitarization, marine antifouling control, pollution prevention, with reference to existing Navy requirements and research where relevant.
