[Exports_project_office] Fwd: Seattle dock space question

Thu Nov 30 14:23:38 PST 2017

Hi Eric,

Thanx. I think you tried to send it to the exports_project_office email list that we are all on, but I think that it failed as your email was not on the alias list.  

Best, Dave

> Further to our earlier exchange, our ship agent in Seattle has identified Terminal 5 as the ideal facility to accommodate both ROGER REVELLE and SALLY RIDE at the same time for the port calls on either end of this project.  The facility has confirmed space available to berth the vessels next to each other (end-to-end).  See attached JPG file for location illustration.

However, the use of potentially expensive stevedores/longshoremen to move equipment on the dock is not on our usual menu of covered port expenses.  This should be discussed at upcoming pre-cruise meetings to determine who the responsible party will be.  When we have more info about EXPORTS' pier-side mobe/de-mobe requirements, we should be able to get a quote on the stevedoring expenses.

I recall in August at the scheduling meeting you mentioned time is of the essence for booking dock space in Seattle for the two vessels if NASA wants them near each other, and particularly if a request needs to be submitted for commercial dock space in Seattle.  Could you please walk us through what process or requests we should be putting in at this point to ensure the agency knows where the vessels will be?  The NASA logistics team would also like to make a trip to Seattle to scope out their approach for the team mob/demob but wants to wait until we have some idea of where the vessels will be.
