Thanks to the innovations put in place by NOAA marine superintendent, Dennis Donahue, and the ‘Green Ships Initiative,’ all three of NOAA’s Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory large diesel research vessels operate fully on bio-based, vegetable products. The R/V Huron Explorer, R/V Shenehon and R/V Laurentian, all use 100 percent soy biodiesel for engine fuel, canola-based motor oil and vegetable-based hydraulic oil for its deck crane, winches, transmission, and steering gear.
