<DIV> I've noticed a question asking how and what can we do for Cooperative Charting and where to start. So I'd suggest you could start by looking in the Coast Pilot [this can be accessed from CC Web] look in your area for missing or outdated information i.e. area code numbers, water tanks that have been removed but still are mentioned in the Coast Pilot, marinas, new or destroyed. All of these can be done from a car. Check the chart for things that are not shown on the chart, new buildings, water tanks, cell towers that would be useful for navigation, power lines that have been removed but still show up on the chart and in the C.P., Small Craft Facility reports are a good thing that can be done by boat or auto.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This should get you started, also look for "Things to increase your credits" listed in CC Web this contains some ideas.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope this helps</DIV></DIV>
