The total military construction cost of facilities for these two ports is estimated at $750 million. However, a substan- tial part of these funds would be required to homeport these new ships whether new or existing ports are used. The committee has approved the initial projects requested for both of these facilities, subject to a requirement that no funds autho- rized to be appropriated in this act for naval strategic homeport- ing may be obligated or expended until 90 days have elapsed follow- ing the submission of a report to the Congress by the Secretary of the Navy justifying the expendi- tures of such funds on the basis of military necessity and cost effec- tiveness. INDUSTRY ACTIVITY Navy continues to be the domi- nant source of shipyard business in this country. Commercial work is depressed due to the strong dollar and poor economic conditions in international and domestic ship- ping. Most U.S. ship repair yards are relying on Navy contracts for their business base. Navy Contract Awards Major Navy contract awards over the past three months are described below: • Todd Shipyards—An $11.5 mil- lion fixed price contract was awarded the San Francisco divi- sion to overhaul the ammunition ship Mt. Hood (AE-29). Todd was one of five bidders. The San Pedro division received a $3.5 million fixed price contract to perform SRA work on the destroyer Paul Foster (DD 964). It was one of two bidders. • Boston Shipyard—The firm re- ceived a $5.0 million fixed price contract from the Military Sealift Command to overhaul the fleet oiler Mississinewa (TAO 143). Boston Shipyard was one of eight firms that bid the job. • Southwest Marine—The San Pe- dro division received a $14.9 mil- lion contract to overhaul the am- phibious landing ship Mt. Vernon (LSD 39). Two firms competed for this contract. • Continental Maritime (San Die- go)—A $7.5 million fixed price contract was received to overhaul the frigate Roark (FF 1053). Con- tinental was one of six firms com- peting for the contract. • NASSCO—The firm was awarded a $12.8 million fixed price contract to overhaul the amphibious as- sault ship Tripoli (LPH 10). Two companies competed for this job. A $6.0 million fixed price contract for SRA work on the destroyer Merrill (DD 976) was awarded to NASSCO. Three firms competed for the work. NASSCO also re- ceived a $3.5 cost plus award fee contract for phased maintenance of four tank landing ships.

Litton was one of five firms competing for this contract. • Burrard Yarrows—This Canadian firm was awarded a $3.0 million fixed price contract for work on the combat stores ship Spica (TAFS 9).
