P-209 — Dry Dock 3 Replacement (MILCON P-209). Replaces the maintenance availabilities that were performed in Dry Dock 3 (DD3) with the new Dry Dock 5 (DD5)

The Navy is investing heavily in shipyard infrastructure for nuclear-powered warships. Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Pacific has awarded a $2.8-billion task order under a previously-awarded contract to the joint venture based in Honolulu, Hawaii, to replace Dry Dock 3 at Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PHNSY & IMF).


The planned five-year Pearl Harbor dry dock replacement project will construct a new graving dock, to be designated Dry Dock 5, to support the shipyard’s ability to continue serving the Navy decades into the future by maintaining and modernizing the U.S. Pacific Fleet’s nuclear-powered submarines.


The shipyard’s Dry Dock 3 will become functionally obsolete once the Navy’s Los Angeles-class submarines are no longer in service. The dry dock, built in 1942, cannot service Virginia-class submarines or larger surface ships.


As the U.S. continues to pursue a strategic rebalance to the Asia-Pacific region, Hawaii remains a vital waypoint and defensive outpost. And as the U.S. military concentrates its operational focus on the area, Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard will continue to be a critical enterprise for our state and for our country.

Dry Dock 5

Fast Facts

The new graving dock will include permanent services and auxiliary facilities needed to operate the dry dock, including pump stations, a chilled water system, and water treatment system.

 

Construction activities include dredging, installation of new in0-water structures, upgrade or replacement of existing water structures and construction of new upland facilities.

 

In-Water Construction June 2023-September 2027


Power Need Date June 2026


Project Completion September 2027


This project is projected to create 2,500 jobs


It will bring in $200 million in annual salaries


A projected $23 million in annual local tax revenues

Construction activities include dredging, installation of new in-water structures, Upgrade or replacement of existing water structures and construction of new upland facilities.

 

The primary areas affected by the ongoing construction will include the work zone around the site of the new dry dock and the temporary logistics site on navigational channel leading into Pearl Harbor. Major material and equipment will be delivered to the dry dock site from Waipio Peninsula via the harbor in order to avoid impacting shipyard operations and existing infrastructure.
