Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Southeast awarded a $41.2 million modification on Oct. 14 to Alberici-Mortenson, Joint Venture (JV) from St. Louis, Missouri, to exercise the third through ninth options for the recapitalization dry dock project at Naval Submarine Base (NSB) Kings Bay, Georgia.

This award funds the third phase (Phase C) of the project and raises the total cumulative contract value to $605.9 million.

“Phase C is the culmination of the three year project to overhaul the Kings Bay Dry Dock,” said Resident Officer in Charge of Construction (ROICC) Trident Cmdr. Marcel Duplantier. “While we still have lots of work left in Phase B, getting Phase C awarded now allows us to plan and prepare for the final work required to get the dock back to full mission capability for the Trident Refit Facility (TRF) at Kings Bay.”

Similar to this modification, the second phase (Phase B) of the project was also awarded early back on Jan. 8 and didn’t officially begin until July 14. Phase B is expected to be completed by October 2022.

The scope of Phase C involves repairs to the ancillary facilities around the dry dock that support TRF maintenance.

Activities during this phase will include concrete repairs to the utility and auxiliary tunnels; concrete repairs inside pump station; repairs to roof drainage system; roof replacement of various support buildings; floor drainage pump replacements; replacement of various original equipment in the utility service building; and replacement of various systems (mechanical, electrical, fire) in seven support buildings.

Phase C is expected to be finished by July 2023 and will mark the completion of the NSB Kings Bay Dry Dock Recapitalization Project.
