(CONTRIBUTED PHOTO)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>JOINT BASE PEARL HARBOR-HICKAM\u2014Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Pacific awarded yesterday a $38.7 million task order to APTIM Construction JV, LLC of Baton Rouge, La. for the construction of a police station at Marine Corps Base Camp Blaz.<\/p>\n<p>The contract supports the Defense Policy Review Initiative and is funded by the Government of Japan as part of the international agreement between the United States and Japan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA completed and functioning police station is central to the operations of the new Marine Corps base,\u201d said Will Boudra, NAVFAC Pacific Guam Program Management Office director. \u201cThis project is another recognition of GOJ\u2019s significant partnership and contribution made towards building the new MCBCB. Camp Blaz will truly be a 21st century military installation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 20,000 square foot police station includes space for operations, training, services and the criminal investigation division. The police station will include administrative and waiting areas, customer service and report writing areas, interrogation rooms with adjacent viewing rooms and evidence vaults. Dispatch centers for medical, fire and security, along with training areas to include classrooms and simulators, armory, pass and identification services, package inspection, communication equipment storage, general supply, and break lounges will also be a part of the police station.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis project is critical for the buildup of MCBCB, so it was essential to have stakeholder involvement throughout the design process,\u201d said Brenton Endo, NAVFAC Pacific Design and Construction project manager. \u201cWe look forward to continuing these efforts with the GOJ, as we move forward with the construction phase.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Work will be performed in Guam with an expected completion date of March 2024.
