"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5026356\" data-originallang=\"en\">I do. On the west coast, with respect to the resident killer whales, we were proposing that pilots' personal portable pilotage units, which they carry, could be adapted so that if you had an array of sonobuoys, we would be able to know exactly where the various pods were located. Right now we are slowing down virtually every single ship through quite a large area, significantly adding to their time through the water and hopefully reducing the noise signature, but you don't really know whether there are any whales there at the time you are doing this. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5026357\" data-originallang=\"en\">Hopefully, if we can get this technology moving ahead, we can then differentiate and slow down when we have to slow down or else keep the speed up if there is nothing in the immediate area.</p>",

Sur la c\u00f4te Ouest, pour la population d'\u00e9paulards r\u00e9sidente du Sud, nous proposons d'adapter les unit\u00e9s de pilotage portables personnelles des pilotes. Ainsi, les nombreuses bou\u00e9es acoustiques nous permettraient de savoir exactement o\u00f9 se trouvent les divers troupeaux. \u00c0 l'heure actuelle, on oblige presque tous les navires \u00e0 ralentir dans une grande zone, ce qui augmente le temps pass\u00e9 en mer et qui \u2014 nous l'esp\u00e9rons \u2014 diminue la signature sonore, mais on ne sait pas si les baleines se trouvent dans la zone lorsqu'on applique ces mesures.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5026357\" data-originallang=\"en\">Cette nouvelle technologie nous permettrait de d\u00e9tecter les baleines et de ralentir lorsque cela est n\u00e9cessaire ou d'aller plus vite s'il n'y a pas de baleines dans la zone.</p>"
