Due to the complexities of federal authorizations and state and local permitting, only certain types of testing may occur at an approved facility. Applicants should discuss the objectives of their proposed Request for Technical Support with the approved facility to ensure those activities are allowable. For general descriptions of allowable activities at open water facilities, click on the facility pages below.

Open water testing applications are accepted at any time and do not coincide with the general RFTS Schedule. Go to the How to Apply page for more information on how to to apply for open water testing.
