Publisher's Synopsis
Unexploded ordnance (UXO) are explosive weapons that did not explode when they were employed and still pose a risk of detonation. Naval battles, bombing during world wars and the disposal of expired munitions have left UXOs in the sea. These pose a challenge to any construction activity that takes place because of the changing marine environment, poor historical reporting of UXOs, a lack of marine UXO removal specialists, the variety of UXOs and unknown quantities of UXOs that may exist.
