Trailer Marine Transport

Awarded $7.7-Million

MSC Contract

The Navy's Military Sealift

Command has awarded a two-year $7.7-million contract to Trailer

Marine Transport Corp. (TMT), of

Jacksonville, Fla., for the trans- portation of military supplies to

April 15, 1984 the Naval Base at Guantanamo

Bay, Cuba.

The contract calls for overland and ocean movement of container- ized and breakbulk cargo princi- pally between Norfolk, Va., and

Guantanamo Bay beginning April 1, 1984. TMT currently has been transporting Defense cargo to the

Naval Base under a series of one and two-year competitive MSC contracts since 1978.

The Navy command estimated that 141,365 measurement tons (40 cubic feet to each measure- ment ton) of containerized cargo and 19,790 measurement tons of breakbulk cargo will be trans- ported between Norfolk and Guan- tanamo Bay during the two-year period.

In addition to contracting with shipper services to deliver DoD cargo, the mission of Military

Sealift Command is primarily to provide the required sealift to de- ploy and sustain the Armed Forces overseas, as quickly and for as long as requirements dictate. The command also operates auxiliary ships that deliver supplies to Navy combatant ships at sea, oceano- graphic and survey ships, and tankers and dry cargo ships that deliver Defense Department cargo worldwide.
