Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) Ocean Engineering Technician Elisia (Lisa) Correa talks with Jim McVicar, NAVFAC EXWC EX521 Underwater Tools & Equipment RDT&E lead, during a test event to configure a sectional barge system, at the Port of Hueneme, Calif., Aug. 25, 2025. The barge is designed to support diverse waterfront construction operations in support of Fleet and warfighter needs. NAVFAC EXWC led the weeklong Expeditionary Port Damage Repair (Ex-PDR) Expedient Configurable Barge (ECB) Test Event 1. The testing 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.
