The second increment of the Environmental Sentinel Biomonitor (ESB) system received Milestone A approval in March 2009, thus initiating research to develop and evaluate candidate technologies to provide toxicity sensor capabilities for evaluating field water supplies as a component addition to the Water Quality Analysis Set-Preventive Medicine. The increment 2 ESB system will provide increased field portability compared with increment 1 while maintaining the rapid response capabilities of increment 1 to toxic chemicals in water. The increment 2 ESB system is scheduled to reach the prototype stage at Milestone B in FY12.
