The Norfolk Naval Shipyard exists to support the Fleet. Its primary mission is to repair, overhaul, drydock, convert, modernize and inactivate ships, and to provide logistics services in support of fleet readiness. The Shipyard is capable of repairing and maintaining all classes of nuclear and non nuclear powered ships and submarines in the Navy's inventory. 11. Outstanding Pollution And Safety Deficiencies ($000):

Project proposes various security additions such as window glazing for facilities, installation of perimeter/security fencing with arresting cables, boundary identification markers/systems, physical barriers, security platforms, high-intensity lighting, waterfront guard towers, improved communication systems, vehicular and personnel entry-control facilities (including permanent remotely-controlled ''pop-up'' barriers, proper stacking lanes for vehicles, specially-demarcated adjoining areas and projectile resistant guard kiosks), security fencing with heightened vehicular crash-through mitigation features, perimeter and patrol roads. This project will construct an Emergency Command Center (ECC) with hardened walls and specialized spaces and equipment for emergency conditions. Office support space for the ECC will also be included in the construction. Built-in equipment will include raised computer floor, multiple large scale wall computer monitors, and an uninterrupted power source (UPS). The project will also install additional security lighting around the waterfront inside the controlled industrial area (CIA) of Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY). These improvements will be focused on the high priority areas of Norfolk Naval Shipyard such as boundaries/perimeters and entry points, and waterfront.

This project proposes security improvements that provide or enhance antiterrorism and force protection features at Norfolk Naval Shipyard to protect our peacetime, warfighting, and training assets (ships, submarines, personnel, facilities, and infrastructure) and capabilities from obvious and specious attacks or infiltrations. (Current mission)

REQUIREMENT:

Naval installations ashore must deal with a variety of threats to the installation, to Naval personnel, and to Naval platforms that are present at the installation. These threats can be deployed from the air, water (surface and submerged), and land. Before September 11, 2001 the perceived threat at CONUS locations was generally considered low to moderate. Facilities were designed based on the low perceived threat. With an increased threat the resulting additional requirements are driving the need for new security features to protect Navy assets. Various physical, electronic, and operational security improvements are required.

CURRENT SITUATION:

NNSY lacks some of the physical security features necessary to hinder or mitigate potential terrorist actions or breaches in security. The ECC for NNSY is located on the perimeter fence of the installation, and it lacks these physical security features. The ECC should be located away from the perimeter for additional control access and protection. Currently, the waterfront lighting does not illuminate all areas of the waterfront. existing waterfront lighting does not provide the physical security features necessary to hinder or mitigate potential terrorist actions or breaches in security.

IMPACT IF NOT PROVIDED:

The

Potential crippling of naval forces or capabilities; potential injury or
loss of life and damage to vessels, aircraft, facilities/infrastructure;
potential undermining of morale among our forces and the general U.S.
public; potential undermining of international perception of U.S. forces
specifically, and U.S. priorities in general; high cost of rescue,
clean-up and recovery after a terrorist attack.
