Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) led a weeklong test of a sectional barge system designed to support diverse waterfront construction operations in support of Fleet and warfighter needs. The Expeditionary Port Damage Repair (Ex-PDR) Expedient Configurable Barge (ECB) Test Event 1, Aug. 25-29 at the Port of Hueneme, included assembling and disassembling the 10-section Poseidon Barge System, conducting operational tests and evaluating the system. Dozens of personnel — federal civilians, sailors, and contractors — supported the operation. Participating military units were Naval Construction Group One (NCG-1), Underwater Construction Team Two (UCT-2), and Naval Mobile Construction Battalion Five (NMCB-5). Headquartered at Naval Base Ventura County, NAVFAC EXWC provides technology and unique, agile solutions for the warfighter focusing on expeditionary, oceans, and shore needs.
