Station Pascagoula work set

PASCAGOULA, Miss. -- Haskell Co. of Jacksonville, Fla., has been awarded a $4.6 million U.S. Coast Guard design-build contract for infrastructure work needed to support Fast Response Cutters (FRCs) at Coast Guard Station Pascagoula. The work will ensure that Station Pascagoula is ready to support the arrival of the soon-to-be-commissioned FRCs for the end of 2014. Work will include renovations to three support buildings, shore-tie services, pier utilities, fenders and cleats, along with the resurfacing of an existing parking lot. Haskell recently completed similar work at USCG Station Key West in support of FRC arrivals there. (Source: Seapower Magazine, 10/28/13)
