Small Craft Intrusion Barrier™ Has Applications in Homeland Security To Protect Against Potential Maritime Attacks

Summit, New Jersey - April 27, 2004 - Wave Dispersion Technologies (WDT) reported today that the company's Small Craft Intrusion Barrier™ (SCIB™), patented floating breakwater technology, has applications for maritime security to protect ports and potentially prevent attacks utilizing small boats, as recent maritime attack in Iraq kills three U.S. Navy sailors. The SCIB™ barrier is designed to demarcate the marine port security zone and significantly impede hostile small crafts from penetrating it.

Vulnerabilities in port security were evident this weekend, as suicide attackers detonated explosive-laden boats near oil facilities in Iraq. Three small boats approached two major oil terminals in Gulf waters, 100 miles from Iraq's main port, Umm Qasr, and exploded when coalition craft tried to intercept them. During the explosion, a U.S. Navy craft was flipped over, killing three American sailors and injuring another five.

"Our Small Craft Intrusion Barrier™s were specifically designed to prevent hostile small boats from entering ports. We have had significant ongoing interest and requests for deploying our barriers. The United States Department for the Interior (DOI), Bureau of Reclamation South Central California Area, recently purchased our Small Craft Intrusion Barrier™ for the Friant Dam in Fresno, California" stated C.E.O. Dennis Smith.

WhisprWave® breakwater technology has wide ranging maritime applications from erosion control to homeland security.
