Debris

Floating or submerged objects that may pose a threat to the survivability of a device.

Debris refers to floating and submerged objects that pose a threat to survivability, and can affect the deployment, performance, maintenance, and decommissioning of a device. Debris typically occurs during extreme events (e.g. flooding). However, depending on the deployment location (e.g. river), debris can also occur during operational conditions.
