The United States Antarctic Program
is managed by the National Science Foundation (NSF). The NSF
designates a Senior U.S. Representative in Antarctica, and
designates an NSF Representative, Antarctica, to coordinate all
field activities. Unless otherwise specified, the Senior U.S.
Representative in Antarctica is the Director, Office of Polar
Programs (OPP), located at the National Science Foundation.
NSF Representatives in Antarctica (TBA)
will be stationed at McMurdo, Palmer, and South Pole Stations
during the austral summer operating season. Additionally, Raytheon
Polar Services Company (RPSC), under contract to the National
Science Foundation, will provide station management year round.
