These projects are the Rota East Harbor rehabilitation, the Rota Junior High School classroom and facility construction, and the fire station roof improvement.
All these federally funded projects are located in Songsong.
Department of Public Works Technical Service Division Director Joe Inos said the administration’s capital improvement project administrator Vicky Villagomez; DPW Secretary Diego B. Songsong and a representative from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineer will cut the ribbon at 10:30 a.m.
The $875,000 Rota Junior High project started last year and includes a classroom, a new science laboratory, a bigger library, boys and girls restrooms and a locker room.
The East Harbor Rehabilitation, which costs $2.4 million, has been an ongoing project but was continuously delayed by bad weather.
Now that it is completed, fishermen and tourists no longer have to travel all the way from West Harbor to explore the island’s marine treasures including its Coral Garden.
Sheet piles made of steel plates, latter railings, ponding basin, concrete swale and paved parking stalls were constructed to make the newly rehabilitated harbor strong enough to withstand typhoon.
The third project that costs $189,000 involves the replacement of the dilapidated tin roof of the Rota Fire Station with a concrete one.
