Ingalls extends closure

The Ingalls Shipbuilding facilities in Pascagoula and Gulfport, Miss., and Avondale, La., are closed until Sept. 4 so damages from Hurricane Isaac can be assessed. The exception is for the damage assessment teams in Pascagoula and Gulfport, who will report for work Friday, as well as production control, rigging and transportation personnel in Gulfport. In Avondale, only personnel contacted by supervisors will report Friday. (Source: Sun Herald, 08/30/12)
