2011-12 Photos - Ship Offload - Page 1
 Things actually started in December 2011 at Port Hueneme...here the 331 Transportation Company practices putting things together. (331) |
 And on 7 January 2012, the causeway components were being loaded. (331) |
| About six weeks (and 10,000 miles) later, the cargo vessel Green Wave arrived around noon on Valentines Day. The following sequence of photos starts the next day. | |
 The Green Wave tied up at the relocated ice pier to offload and assemble the causeway components. Here are the first few pieces. (WH) |
 Here's the water-level view. (331) |
 Here are a couple more pieces...(331) |

 There were two of these small vessels called MWT's (modular warping tugs). (SFA) |
 Assembly continues. (SFA) |
 The MWTs made a number of trips back and forth... |

 Back for more. |
 The rest of the causeway is in the water. |
