MARITIME MINING FACILITY CIP PROJECT

The Maritime Mining Facility will be an approximately 100' X 40' structure with an open first floor high bay including modular rooms, unisex restroom, and lab sinks to the rear. A Restricted Access (RA) room is also required to store classified hardware. A large frontal roll-up door is included to provide sufficient access with an overhead crane to safely support all internal handling operations. The engineered partial second floor loft (25' X 40') will also be serviced by the overhead crane and will be connected to the first floor high bay via stairway. See attached project quad sheet, list of facility requirements, and concept sketches. Preferred site for new facility is adjacent to B618. Construction of this facility will extend a significant cost savings to A-Dept by removing the logistical problems associated with having numerous satellite work areas coupled with off-site storage. By eliminating these logistical issues, more of our sponsor allocated funding will be devoted to end product design and integration.
