Island Food offices reopen after CCAD renovation
The opening of the newly renovated Island Food Community of Pohnpei (IFCP) office in Kolonia was commemorated with an official ribbon cutting ceremony. U.S. Navy Seabees from the Community Civic Construction Action Detail (CCAD) program replaced the roof, windows, doors, wiring, plumbing, and windows, and then painted the building. The job was completed on time, and the IFCP has moved back into their office.
Ambassador Rosen presented certificates of appreciation to the Seabees and to the local construction workers who worked side by side with the Seabees on the IFCP project. Commodore Meyer came from Port Hueneme, CA with Command Master Chief Teart to congratulate the Seabee detachment working on Pohnpei on a job well done.
The Seabees also completed minor renovations at the Sokehs Dispensary. Next week they will begin repair work at the Pohnlongas Dispensary.
The Seabees will work through the Holidays to complete the construction of a new changing room at the Pohnpei Swim Pool. Additionally, they are replacing the roof on the 2nd and 3rd grade building at Kolonia Elementary School.
CCAD projects are funded entirely by the U.S. Department of Defense. This program does not use Compact funding. This CCAD project is scheduled to be completed with the departure of the Detail during the second week of January. (PR)
