DOD RECOMMENDATION Close the Naval Shipyard Portsmouth, Kittery, ME. Relocate the ship depot repair function to Naval Shipyard Norfolk, VA, Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility Pearl Harbor, HI and. Naval Shipyard Puget Sound, WA. Relocate the Submarine Maintenance, Engineering, Planning and Procurement Command to Naval Shipyard IVorfolk. DOD JUSTIFICATION Retains one nuclear-capable shipyard on each coast, plus sufficient shipyard capacity to support forward deployed assets w Four Naval Shipyards performing depot-level ship refueling, modernization, overhaul and repair work Sufficient excess capacity in the aggregate across the four shipyards to close either Naval Shipyard Pearl Harbor or Naval Shipyard Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Portsmouth was selected for closure because it is the only closure which could both eliminate excess capacity and satisfy retention of strategically-placed shipyard capability Planned force structure and force positioning adjustments reflected in the 20-year Force Structure Plan led to the selection of Naval Shipyard Portsmouth as the preferred closure candidate Additional savings anticipated from reduced unit costs at the receiving shipyards because of the higher volume of work Naval Shipyard Portsmouth had a low military value compared to operational homeports Naval Shipyard Portsmouth berthing capacity not required to support the Force Structure Plan COST CONSIDERATIONS DEVELOPED BY DOD w One-Time Costs: $448.4 million Net Savings (Cost) during Implementation: $21.4 million Annual Recurring Savings: $128.6 million Return on Investment Year: 2009 (4 Years) Net Present Value over 20 Years: $1262.4 million MANPOWER IMPLICATIONS OF THIS RECOMMENDATION (EXCLUDES CONTRACTORS) Military Civilian Students Baseline Reductions Realignments Total MANPOWER IMPLICATIONS OF ALL RECOMMENDATIONS AFFECTING THIS INSTALLATION (INCLUDES ON-BASE CONTRACTORS AND STUDENTS) Out In Net Gain (Loss) Militarv Civilian NIilitary Civilian Military Civilian This Recommendation (201) (4032) 0 0 (201) (4510) (I Other Recommendation(s) Total (201) (4032) 0 0 (201) (4510) ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS we(Include pertinent items, e.g., on NPL list) REPRESENTATION Governor: Governor John Baldacci (D) Senators: Olympia Snowe (R), Susan Collins (R) Representative: Thomas Allen (D) ECONOMIC IMPACT Potential Employment Loss: 91 66 jobs (45 10 direct and 4656 indirect) MSA Job Base: 33 1,665 jobs Percentage: -2.8 percent decrease Cumulative Economic Impact (Year-Year): -percent decrease MILITARY ISSUES (Include pertinent items) II COMMUNITY CONCERNSIISSUES

  • Appendix As Too Inclusive
    Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen Appendix I A Chronological List of Cases Involving the Landing of United States Forces to Protect the Lives and Property of Nationals Abroad Prior to World War II* This Appendix contains a chronological list of pre-World War II cases in which the United States landed troops in foreign countries to pro- tect the lives and property of its nationals.1 Inclusion of a case does not nec- essarily imply that the exercise of forcible self-help was motivated solely, or even primarily, out of concern for US nationals.2 In many instances there is room for disagreement as to what motive predominated, but in all cases in- cluded herein the US forces involved afforded some measure of protection to US nationals or their property. The cases are listed according to the date of the first use of US forces. A case is included only where there was an actual physical landing to protect nationals who were the subject of, or were threatened by, immediate or po- tential danger. Thus, for example, cases involving the landing of troops to punish past transgressions, or for the ostensible purpose of protecting na- tionals at some remote time in the future, have been omitted. While an ef- fort to isolate individual fact situations has been made, there are a good number of situations involving multiple landings closely related in time or context which, for the sake of convenience, have been treated herein as sin- gle episodes. The list of cases is based primarily upon the sources cited following this paragraph.

  • Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018 Part 2A: United States - Submarines
    Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018 Part 2A: United States - Submarines Peter Lobner July 2018 1 Foreword In 2015, I compiled the first edition of this resource document to support a presentation I made in August 2015 to The Lyncean Group of San Diego (www.lynceans.org) commemorating the 60th anniversary of the world’s first “underway on nuclear power” by USS Nautilus on 17 January 1955. That presentation to the Lyncean Group, “60 years of Marine Nuclear Power: 1955 – 2015,” was my attempt to tell a complex story, starting from the early origins of the US Navy’s interest in marine nuclear propulsion in 1939, resetting the clock on 17 January 1955 with USS Nautilus’ historic first voyage, and then tracing the development and exploitation of marine nuclear power over the next 60 years in a remarkable variety of military and civilian vessels created by eight nations. In July 2018, I finished a complete update of the resource document and changed the title to, “Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018.” What you have here is Part 2A: United States - Submarines. The other parts are: Part 1: Introduction Part 2B: United States - Surface Ships Part 3A: Russia - Submarines Part 3B: Russia - Surface Ships & Non-propulsion Marine Nuclear Applications Part 4: Europe & Canada Part 5: China, India, Japan and Other Nations Part 6: Arctic Operations 2 Foreword This resource document was compiled from unclassified, open sources in the public domain. I acknowledge the great amount of work done by others who have published material in print or posted information on the internet pertaining to international marine nuclear propulsion programs, naval and civilian nuclear powered vessels, naval weapons systems, and other marine nuclear applications.

  • William D. Leahy and America's Imperial Years, 1893-1917
    WILLIAM D. LEAHY AND AMERICA'S IMPERIAL YEARS, 1893-1917. Gerald E. Thomas Srs» SUMMARY This dissertation deals with American imperialism at the turn of the century as seen through the eyes of a young naval officer, William D. Leahy. Other works which have examined these years have dealt with strategic, political, or economic matters, or with famous naval figures of the times. This study, in contrast, focuses on the experiences of William D. Leahy, whose very "averageness" makes his early life an over- looked window through which the events of his day may be examined. During the first two decades of his half-century career, Leahy saw in action the first two of Admiral Mahan's "international principles"--cooperation in the Far East, and dominance in the Caribbean, Central America (and the Philippines). Leahy's experiences help to throw a new light on how American imperialism affected both the victims of America's policies and those who had to carry out those policies. Chapter 1, "The Cutting Edge, " is an introduction to the disser- tation. Chapter 2, "A Typical Naval Cadet," examines Leahy's formative background and his education at the Naval Academy. Chapter 3, "Baptism of Fire," introduces him into the fighting Navy in the battle off Santiago, Cuba during the Spanish American War. Chapter 4, "Shanghai and Amoy, "follows Leahy's participation in the events of the Boxer Rebellion. Chapter 5, "The Philippines and After--Years of Growth" takes Leahy through the Ameri- can conquest of the Philippines. Although the Philippines were technically in the Far East, the basic assumptions of American foreign policy toward dealing with weak, non-white, nations resulted in an American policy of repression and subjugation of popular Filipino forces led by Emilio Aguinaldo, The result was the same as in Latin America--total, if disguised American political and economic hegemony.
