The overall purpose of this study is to define a joint test, or series of tests, concerning the ability of the services to conduct LOTs operations, and the means to accomplish such test(s). Guidance provided by the study sponsor which shaped the test definition included the following: (1) Tests would include a containership and breakbulk ship, with consideration also given to the inclusion of a bargeship and roll-on/roll-off ship. (2) Major areas of evaluation would include the quantitative exploration of LOTS systems deployment techniques; Ship discharge procedure; Ship-to-shore lighterage functions; Beach organization/preparation; and Overall management and control aspects. and (3) That the tests would be undertaken in the Fiscal Year 1976-77 time period.
