The innerbottom is also subdivided into tanks for carrying liquid ballast, diesel oil, steam generator (boiler)feedwater, fresh water and low-level radioactive liquid wastes.2.2.2 Deck ArrangementsThe ship has three complete decks (A, B and C) with platform decks at various levels. A promenadedeck extends over the A-deck for about one-third <strong>of</strong> the ship’s length.The NSS’s streamlined superstructure is set sufficiently aft to permit access to the reactor systemcontainment vessel through the forward promenade deck for refueling. The forward weather deckaccommodates the hatches for cargo holds 1, 2, 3 and 4. Each hold was served by two cargo booms.Holds 1 and 2 were served by 8-ton cargo booms and holds 3 and 4 by <strong>10</strong>-ton cargo booms. Theeight booms were operated in groups <strong>of</strong> four from two A-frame supporting structures withoutriggers.Aft <strong>of</strong> the superstructure a third cargo gear A-frame accommodates four <strong>10</strong>-ton booms that servedholds 6 and 7. Cargo hatch covers are set in coamings on A-deck and were hydraulically operatedfrom local stations at each hatch.All <strong>of</strong> the cargo handling equipment is deactivated, disabled and performs no active function.The uppermost or navigation bridge deck served a dual purpose. The pilothouse is located on theforward end and the radio room is slightly aft to the starboard. The chart room is on the port sideoutboard <strong>of</strong> the gyrocompass room. The balance <strong>of</strong> the navigation bridge deck provided berthingspace for the radio operator and is the location <strong>of</strong> two fan rooms, a battery room and the emergencygenerator room.Rev.
