Summary	The funds will support the planning and execution of a technical symposium on Mines. The purpose of the symposium is to continue the examination of the potentials of emergent technologies to enhance the capabilities of the U.S. and its Allies in mining, mine countermeasures, and humanitarian demining that includes area remediation. These symposia have been nationally and internationally acclaimed and have been well recognized by the policy and executive levels in the Department of Defense and in the Military Departments. Each symposium has been attended by 300-450 individuals who have been drawn from the DOD operating forces, industry, academia, the international community, and by senior DOD, Navy, Army, and Marine Corps officials. As with the nine preceding symposia, this symposium is a joint undertaking of several U.S. Government Agencies. The planned dates for the Tenth Symposium are May 7-10, 2012.
