With most of the world in practicing restricted movement due to the threat of the COVID-19 virus, the SFB teams have discussed how to move forward with these new conditions in both the US and Sabah.

After discussion, we concluded that our teams safety and health is most important and that we should not take any steps that would increase the risk of COVID-19 infection or spread. As a result, we agreed that current measures in place as a result of COVID-19 prevents us from:

• Installing/servicing our sensors in Sabah.

• Planned installation of the Anthropocene marine radar in KK.

• The SST Incidence Response Center review will not be needed until further notice.

We will review our actions and objectives going forward.

Sincerely,

Dieter Rudolph, Executive Director SFB USA
