Speaker:
Robert (Bob) Hull, Principal Engineer, Los Alamos Technical Associates, Inc.

Topic:
Bob will make a presentation on Military Activities in an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ).
He will explain what military activities are allowed in a country's EEZ, and the legal status of an ADIZ. In 1950, the US was the first to establish ADIZs: the Contiguous US ADIZ (with Canada), the Alaskan ADIZ, the Guam ADIZ, and the Hawaii ADIZ. The US established the Japanese ADIZ in 1951 transferring it to Japan in 1969. The US also established the South Korean ADIZ in 1951. Bob will also provide some examples of recent transgressions by foreign countries into the North American zones.
