91Recently completed field tests have demonstrated that frequency domain sensors, such as Geophex Ltd.'s GEM-3, can reliably separate UXO targets from clutter objects based on their complex broadband EM signatures. These field tests have also identified a number of areas where improvements are needed before this technology is transitioned to full-scale UXO cleanup applications.

107The primary objective of this guide is to provide highway agency decision makers with analytical procedures and decision methodologies that can be applied in the early planning and design stages of a major street or highway project to select the most appropriate traffic control strategy to be implemented. The process should assist in formulating decisions regarding the type of work zone (lane closure, detour, crossover, etc.)
