Consigli Construction Co. Inc. of Milford has been awarded a $9 million contract for the construction of an emergency control center at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in New Hampshire.
The project includes a three-level, steel-framed reinforced concrete facility with a below-ground first level to support radiological emergency responses.
The building will house the shipyard’s radiological emergency response organization and will serve as its command center during an emergency. It will also support responses to other emergencies, such as natural disasters or terrorist attacks.
The contract includes six unexercised options, which if included would bring its value to slightly more than $12 million. The project is expected to be completed by April 2011.
The contract was awarded by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command based in Norfolk, Va.
