Navy Nuclear Aircraft Carrier (CVN) Homeporting at Mayport


Book Description

The Navy¿s 5 Atlantic Fleet CVNs are all homeported at Norfolk, VA. The Navy wants to establish a second Atlantic Fleet CVN home port by homeporting a CVN at Mayport, FL, in order to mitigate the risk of a terrorist attack, accident, or natural disaster. Transferring a CVN from Norfolk to Mayport would shift the local economic activity, which may be worth hundreds of millions of dollars/year. Contents of this report: (1) Intro.; (2) Background: The Navy¿s Aircraft Carrier Force; Norfolk and Mayport Home Ports; Navy Rationale for Mayport CVN Homeporting; Navy Comparison of Mayport and Norfolk; (3) Issues for Congress: Final Environ. Impact Statement; (4) Legislative Activity for FY 2011. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand publication.




Defense Infrastructure


Book Description

The 2001 Quadrennial Defense Review called for the Navy to provide more warfighting assets more quickly to multiple locations. Subsequently, the Navy made a preliminary decision to homeport a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier at Naval Station Mayport, Florida. This report is an independent estimate of the total federal costs for the proposed homeporting. This report: (1) developed an independent estimate of the full life-cycle costs to homeport a nuclear aircraft carrier at Mayport; and (2) determined to what extent the Navy's estimate meets the characteristics of a high-quality cost estimate. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find publication.
