The CGA 300 is an Oceangoing Boom Barge that houses 25,000 feet of 43” air inflatable auto-boom palletized in 500’ sections. Each section can be set over the side via onboard crane and handed to a support vessel for inflation and deployment. When no longer needed, each section can be attached to one of two recovery reels where it is deflated, coiled back into a roll, and pressed onto a pallet or strap for placement back in secondary containment to be stored for reuse or decontamination. The barge also has a machinery space with a generator and HPU to provide power for the two onboard cranes, a removable conex box workshop and storage space, and an air-conditioned temporary (removable) workspace for personnel assigned during a response.
Below deck is a storage area for additional PPE, parts, or other items to provide logistical support as needed to support operations.
