    Norfolk Naval Shipyard Lifting and Handling Department (Code 700) Rigger Shop (Shop 72) USS Montpelier (SSN 765) project riggers Kai Loree (left) and Chad Saeger (right) prepare to hook up the shackles and pendants to the crane cables. “Shop 72 moves large components to and from the boat to include, but not limited to, pumps, motors, and equipment,” said Loree. “Because we are working with tight spaces, it’s critical that the rigger in charge, the riggers, and the crane operator communicate with each other and work together as a team. This will allow us to have a safe and efficient lifting and handling evolution, which supports NNSY’s mission.”
