berthing; Pier 3 utilities are limited to water and sewer only; all rail lines on the east side of Pier 3 are in poor condition and are shut down; Trestle 3 requires deck and rail repairs; timber pile repairs are required on Pier and Trestle 3; and Pier 3 requires a new fender system to support AOE class ships.

Pier 4 (concrete deck on steel piles) provides 2 berths for homeporting or ordnance loading and is dredged to -47 ft. Pier 4 was constructed in 1990 and is not limited by restrictions.

IMPACT IF NOT PROVIDED:

Continued use of existing Piers/Trestles 2 and 3 will eventually result in structural failures which will significantly affect and diminish NWS Earle's ability to perform its mission. These facilities are 57 years old and have reached their economic and designed life.

sanitary sewer, industrial sewer, technical operating manuals, paving, site improvements and demolition. The facility will be constructed adjacent to an existing steam catapult site that will afford direct access to a runway, be in close proximity to existing utilities and test personnel, consolidate existing test facilities, and provide office space. Anti-terrorism/Force Protection features will be included. Built-in equipment consists of Catapult Structure. A special cost is included for Guide and Brake Rails. Sustainable principles will be integrated into the design, development, and construction of the project in accordance with Executive Order 13123 and other laws and Executive Orders. 11. Requirement:

This project constructs the infrastructure, supporting buildings, and interfacing utilities for the EMALS, the next-generation shipboard aircraft launching system, currently under development and scheduled for deployment aboard the next generation aircraft carrier, CVNX-1. (New mission)

REQUIREMENT:

This project provides a land-based Electromagnetic Aircraft Launching System facility required to support the full-scale deployment of a new type of launching system and to provide life-cycle support for this aircraft launcher that is scheduled for deployment on the CVNX-1 aircraft carrier. The CVNX-1 carrier is scheduled for Initial Operating Capability (IOC) in 2013. This land-based facility will serve as the life-cycle support facility for the EMALS, will have the same configurations as the CVNX shipboard systems, will be used for test and evaluation of future system modifications, and will be used conduct aircraft compatibility testing of new and modified naval aircraft. This facility will be used to verify EMALS performance through testing with dead loads and naval aircraft prior to production of the four EMAL catapults for the CVNX-1. In order to meet the CVNX-1 schedule, testing of the full-scale EMALS will take place at this unique EMALS facility during FY2007-2008.

CURRENT SITUATION:

The Fleet is currently launching aircraft from carriers with steam catapults that are supported by land-based steam catapults. Since the electromagnetic catapult is currently in the development phase, the
