OceanGate employees are set to testify at a hearing about the doomed Titan submersible more than a year after it imploded in the North Atlantic.

The Coast Guard Marine Board of Investigation released the schedule and witness list for the hearing, which will start on September 16 in North Charleston, South Carolina. It is expected to last two weeks.

“It aims to uncover the facts surrounding the incident and develop recommendations to prevent similar tragedies in the future,” the press release on Friday said of the hearing.

The witness list includes ex-OceanGate staff members like Tony Nissen, its engineering director, Bonnie Carl, and David Lochridge, its operations director.
