Description of Work
Underwater Mechanix Services (UMX) was hired by Fluor Federal Solutions to perform an underwater inspection of an effluent outfall pipe located in the Turning Basin at Naval Station Mayport.

Also, UMX found discrepancies in the size of the pipeline with the previous reports. UMX was contacted for a return visit to perform repairs to the leaking pipe line as well as install three USCGC-approved marker buoys to alert ship traffic of submerged structures.
UMX provided the following services for this project:
- Underwater photography
- Divers’ notation of damaged areas to timber pile supports
