SEATTLE, Aug. 27 (UPI) -- The U.S. Navy has contracted Todd Pacific Shipyards Corp. for maintenance on the department's Nimitz-class aircraft carriers.
Officials say the follow-on deal is for Todd Pacific to perform maintenance work on the Navy's Lincoln, Stennis, Nimitz and Reagan aircraft carriers over a five-year period at the company's Puget Sound, Wash., facilities.
Todd Pacific, which has been contracted by the Navy since 1999 for aircraft carrier maintenance, says work on the deal will take place over "planned incremental availabilities and docking planned incremental availabilities," the release said.
Company officials say the maintenance will include alterations and repairs on the ships, excluding nuclear technologies. Details on the value of the cost-plus-award-fee contract were not released.
