Public Works Center Guam Fleet Moorings Underwater Inspection Report.

Abstract

The purpose of the mooring inspections was to determine the general physical condition of the buoys and chain assemblies and, when possible, to verify or update existing as-built and maintenance records. Divers inspected only a portion of the submerged buoy hull and chain assemblies in order to compile a general description of the mooring's condition. The existence of fairly consistent measurements during this inspection provides a good indication of the mooring's overall condition. Of the 22 moorings inspected, 19 were found to be in satisfactory condition, and 3 were found to be in fair condition with 1 of these recommended for overhaul. Specific comments concerning each of these moorings and recommendations for future actions are included within this report.
