Extensive maritime use of GPS in close-quarters coastal waters is an issue. My understanding is that the GPS problem will arise (if one does arise) around August 19 due to the turn over in the week counting system with which the system was originally installed. On-board software and embedded chip concerns for the safe operation of vessels would come on 1/1.

Chevron a wise TAVA client...

July 28 '98: CHEVRON Y2K MASTER CONSULTING AGREEMENT
ENGLEWOOD, Colo., July 28 /PRNewswire/ -- TAVA Technologies announced that it has executed a Year 2000 Master Services Contract with Chevron Products Company (NYSE: CHV - news) that covers the terms and conditions by which Chevron facilities around the world can purchase TAVA Y2K products and services. Every Chevron owned company or affiliate will be eligible to participate in this comprehensive program to inventory and audit embedded systems, determine the degree of compliance for Y2K and prepare programs for the necessary remediation.

The new contract is the result of a successful Y2K pilot project completed earlier this year. Work has already begun at Chevron's Richmond, California refinery, the Salt Lake City, Utah Refinery and the Chevron Chemical plant in Orange, Texas.

About Chevron: chevron.com

Chevron in San Francisco does not anticipate Year 2000 problems to
affect the importing of oil. However, the company will not operate
vessels in restricted water, such as narrow passages or ports, on Dec.
31, 1999, because officials are concerned that on-board systems may
receive contaminated data from systems that are not Year 2000-compliant.

Chevron is testing its 35 tankers -- a process that will take nine days
and cost about $15,000 per tanker
