In September 2017, Base Detachment Borinquen (BDB) and Air Station Borinquen (ASB) suffered

extensive damage to its many facilities from Hurricanes Irma and Maria. This damage severely

affected the Coast Guard’s ability to efficiently perform its missions, such as, search and rescue,

law enforcement, aerial support for navigation aid, and logistics support. In addition to the

damage, many structures and utilities at the base are dated and no longer serve their intended

purpose or retain their proper function after a major event, such as a hurricane. The scope of work for this project therefore includes electrical and telecommunications distribution, water distribution, storm water improvements, sanitary sewer improvements, other site improvements and demolition, Coast Guard Exchange (CGX) resiliency repairs, and water and electrical resiliency.
