<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I cannot recall exactly what that *.ppt
file showed but I think it showed various vaults tested at ASL including
a smaller style vault for, what I called, "remote style". In
any case, since then John McMillan and I have designed a vault system with
a glass base using an off-the-shelf salvage drum that has a lid with an
o-ring and using a PVC bulkhead fitting for cable entry. This vault
is similar to one I showed at last NETOPS meeting where it was used as
a table and/or chair. See photos of our mockup at </font><a href="ftp://hazards.cr.usgs.gov/meremonte/Station-Vault/VaultDesign/Vault_SalvageDrum"><font size=2 face="sans-serif">ftp://hazards.cr.usgs.gov/meremonte/Station-Vault/VaultDesign/Vault_SalvageDrum</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
and see an installation for the station PLID (Pearl Lake, ID) at </font><a href="ftp://hazards.cr.usgs.gov/meremonte/Station-Vault/VaultDesign/Vault_SalvageDrum/Installed_PLID_Photos"><font size=2 face="sans-serif">ftp://hazards.cr.usgs.gov/meremonte/Station-Vault/VaultDesign/Vault_SalvageDrum/Installed_PLID_Photos</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">As for response of the system see IRIS
PDF plots for PLID at </font><a href="http://www.iris.washington.edu/servlet/quackquery/pdfDrill.do?station=PLID&yyyyDDD=2010.032&length=31&location=++&channel=BHZ&network=IW"><font size=2 face="sans-serif">http://www.iris.washington.edu/servlet/quackquery/pdfDrill.do?station=PLID&yyyyDDD=2010.032&length=31&location=++&channel=BHZ&network=IW</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">.
This vault is installed in the Idaho Batholith using a CMG3-ESP
and a MEMS.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Also, we installed the same vault and
seismometers at stations FXWY and REDW in IW network. FXWY is in
an old limestone quarry and REDW is on a couple meters of fine-grained
clay soil mixed with boulders on a limestone ridge. The PDF plots
plotted for same period of time as for PLID above are at:</font>

<br><tt><font size=2>We were wondering what other networks are doing in
regards to the construction of new vaults, broadband in particular. Maybe
something along the lines of one that Mark Meremonte covered in this presentation?<br>
