1. A stabilization and deployment system, comprising:
a stabilization plate having a stabilization plate top side, wherein a ridge is formed in or extends from at least a portion of said stabilization plate top side, wherein, said ridge provides a perimeter around at least a portion of said stabilization plate top side to define a stabilization plate recess of said stabilization plate top side, wherein said stabilization plate recess comprises three aligned, at least partially overlapping circular recesses, wherein said circular recesses are arranged such that each circular recess at least partially overlaps each adjacent circular recess, and wherein at least one connector stabilization plate anchor slot is formed through said stabilization plate, wherein said at least one stabilization plate anchor slot is formed so as to allow an anchor strap to be attached thereto or positioned therethrough;
a plurality of rod boreholes formed to extend into portions of said stabilization plate, wherein each rod borehole allows at least a portion of an elongate stabilization rod to be positioned therein such that the stabilization rod extends from said stabilization plate;
at least one connector ring, wherein each said at least one connector ring comprises a ring body having a ring aperture formed through said ring body, wherein said ring aperture is formed so as to allow at least a portion of a container to extend therethrough such that said connector ring may be positioned atop a portion of a container such that at least a portion of the container extends beyond said ring aperture to allow a container cap to be attached or coupled to the container and secure said connector ring to the container, via the container cap, and wherein at least one connector ring anchor slot is formed through said ring body, wherein said at least one connector ring anchor slot is formed so as to allow an anchor strap to be attached thereto or positioned therethrough; and
at least one anchor strap, wherein a portion of said at least one anchor strap may be positioned through said at least one stabilization plate anchor slot and a portion of said at least one anchor strap may be positioned through said at least one connector ring anchor slot to attach or couple said at least one connector ring to said stabilization plate.
 
19. A stabilization and deployment system, comprising:
a stabilization plate having a stabilization plate top side, wherein a ridge is formed in or extends from at least a portion of said stabilization plate top side, wherein, said ridge provides a perimeter around at least a portion of said stabilization plate top side to define a stabilization plate recess of said stabilization plate top side, wherein said stabilization plate recess comprises three aligned, at least partially overlapping circular recesses, wherein said circular recesses are arranged such that each circular recess at least partially overlaps each adjacent circular recess, and wherein a container is positionable atop said stabilization plate top side, within a portion of said stabilization plate recess, such that at least a portion of an interior portion of said ridge may contact at least a portion of an exterior portion of the container, within at least a portion of one of said circular recesses so as to resist lateral movement of the container in relation to said stabilization plate; and
a plurality of rod boreholes formed to extend into portions of said stabilization plate, wherein each rod borehole allows at least a portion of an elongate stabilization rod to be positioned therein such that the stabilization rod may extend from said stabilization plate.
 
20. A stabilization and deployment system, comprising:
a stabilization plate having a stabilization plate top side, wherein a ridge is formed in or extends from at least a portion of said stabilization plate top side, wherein, said ridge provides a perimeter around at least a portion of said stabilization plate top side to define a stabilization plate recess of said stabilization plate top side, wherein said stabilization plate recess comprises three aligned, at least partially overlapping circular recesses, wherein said circular recesses are arranged such that each circular recess at least partially overlaps each adjacent circular recess, and wherein said circular recesses are arranged so that a relative center of each of said circular recesses are spaced from one another at a distance that is equal to one and one half times a length of a radius of at least one of said circular recesses; and
a plurality of rod boreholes formed to extend into portions of said stabilization plate, wherein each rod borehole allows at least a portion of an elongate stabilization rod to be positioned therein such that the stabilization rod may extend from said stabilization plate, wherein at least some of said plurality of rod boreholes are formed substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of said stabilization plate and wherein at least some of said plurality of said rod boreholes are formed substantially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis of said stabilization plate.
