OpportunityTitle: Department of Defense (DoD) Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Applied Research Program
Description: ONR is interested in receiving white papers and full proposals for the Department of Defense (DoD) Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Science and Technology Program. ONR develops and demonstrates emerging technologies for DoD EOD functional areas. The DoD EOD functional area include the ability to detect/locate, access, diagnose/identify, render safe/neutralize, and dispose of explosive hazards. It includes land and underwater environments. The EOD mission is unique from the role of other forces, such as combat engineers that support movement of U.S. and allied forces. Explosive hazards include conventional and unconventional foreign and domestic ordnance, Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), and Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). An IED is a device placed in an improvised manner incorporating destructive, lethal, noxious, pyrotechnic, or incendiary chemicals to destroy, incapacitate, harass, or distract. It can include military stores, but normally is devised from non-military components. An IED can be emplaced on the surface, above ground, buried, or underwater.
