Location: Various locations FL, GA and SC
Period of Performance: Monthly since December 2012
Description of Work: UMX continues to perform routine maintenance, cleaning and detailed inspection with color-recorded video of the United States Coast Guard Cutters along the East Coast. Divers polish propellers and perform hull cleanings with low-friction pneumatic and hydraulic brushes to remove all marine growth and calcium build up with little-to-no paint loss, which increases the ship performance and allows greater timeframe between cleaning cycles.
UMX provided the following services for this project:
- Underwater video inspection
- Measurements and estimated depletion of cathodic protection system
- Divers’ notation of any paint abrasions, defects, and abnormalities
- Underwater hull cleaning
- Underwater cleaning of all sea chest, running gear, discharges, and sea suctions
- Underwater propeller polish
