MILITARY MUNITIONS RESPONSE (MMR)
Taber Construction
Fiber-optic Cable Upgrade
Project Background
Concord Naval Weapons Station, Concord, California is a Formerly Used Defense Site (FUDS) that is undergoing various construction phases for the eventual release to the public for redevelopment. Taber Construction is constructing 6.5 miles of fiber-optic cable to upgrade lighting and security at Concord Naval Weapons Station (CNWS), Concord, California, which entailed trenching of 6.5 miles to lay the cable in the Tidal Area of the site. Initially, USACE Sacramento District deemed this area as a "low risk" of possessing MEC however, after seven months of excavating in the Tidal Area; a 75mm HE projectile was discovered thus elevating the risk to "moderate to high". The contract was modified and ERRG was tasked to write a Construction Support Work Plan and Explosives Safety Submission (ESS). ERRG is currently supporting this project with two UXO Technicians that are providing Construction Support and Demolition activities.
