Caisson construction has advanced considerably over the years. This one being built in Norfolk, Virginia with oversight of the Officer in Charge of Construction Portsmouth Naval Shipyard will replace the aging one in Dry Dock #1 and include features that will make it a better fit for the strong tides and currents of the Piscataqua River. A part of the Shipyard Infrastructure Optimization Program, this project represents a step forward in the mission to modernize shipyard infrastructure to deliver availabilities needed to support the fleet more efficiently and effectively.
