Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Wikipedia notes, is the major West Coast base of the Marine Corps and serves as its prime amphibious training base. The base was established in 1942 to train Marines for service in World War II. By October 1944, Camp Pendleton was declared as a “permanent installation,” and by 1946, it became the home of the 1st Marine Division. Today, it is the home to Marine Corps operating force units, including the I Marine Expeditionary Force, and various training commands.
The contract so far, with the exercise of option 1, has a value of $66.7 million. Sundt William Scotsman will perform the work in Oceanside, CA and expects to complete it by July 2010. The Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Southwest, in San Diego, CA manages the contract (N62473-08-C-3511).
