KNB was originally constructed in the late 1970's and over the last 40 years the superstructure of the south breakwater and the ammunition pier (which is accessed from the breakwater) has fallen into disrepair. There is significant cracking and various types of damage to the concrete superstructure of the breakwater. The breakwater is approximately 1.2 kilometers in length and creates an artificial harbor for the portside operations of KNB. The breakwater supports a roadway allowing two-way traffic to the head of the breakwater, as well as various utilities (including fuel, water, sanitary sewer, and electrical service). The scope of this project includes the replacement of the ocean side parapet wall, repair of various instances of concrete spalling and cracking on the harbor side of the breakwater, various aesthetic improvements to all parts of the breakwater, resurfacing and pothole repair of existing roadways, replacement of harbor side sidewalks, repair and/or replacement of an indicated number of harbor side foundation blocks, and the replacement of all utilities lines. The scope also includes the replacement of access ladders, moorings, water filling stations, sewage offload stations, fueling points, electrical connections for moored vessels, fire suppression connections points, light poles, and navigational lighting. The ammunition pier is approximately 1875 square meters in size, with two access bridges to the roadway on the breakwater, and is used for ammunition loading and off-loading operations. The scope of the project includes the removal and replacement of the concrete decking and all other features of the ammunition pier with the exception of the existing support piles, including the two bridges connecting the ammunition pier to the breakwater. Prior to construction beginning on the ammunition pier, an alternative ammunition pier must be constructed so that periodic ammunition off-load operations can continue during construction.
