USCG FOL Cold Bay New Hangar
Cold Bay, Alaska
Currently, the Coast Guard utilizes one MH-60T helicopter, housed in a hangar recently renovated. This new project provides a hangar to house a second MH-60T helicopter, which is adjacent to the existing hangar.
The new 6,529 SF hangar has been designed using methods of assembly that have been proven by the existing hangar to withstand Cold Bay’s extreme climate. The facility includes the main hangar bay, mechanical room, office, restroom, and breezeway that connects the new hangar to the existing.
The project was also designed with several sustainable features that include water efficient landscaping, enhanced refrigerant management, optimized energy performance of 14%, recycled materials, low emitting materials, moisture control, and biobased products.
