The Naval Station Todd-Tacoma shipyard is located on
Commencement Bay between Hylebos and Blair Waterways in
Tacoma, Washington. The U.S. Navy acquired the 191-acre
facility between 1942 and 1948. Beginning in 1940, the western
portion of the property, approximately 74.2 acres and owned at
that time by Seattle-Tacoma Shipbuilding Corporation (later
called Todd Pacific Shipyards, Inc., Tacoma Division), was
rapidly developed to support the war effort. The Navy and the
Maritime Commission acquired adjacent land to expand the
plant. By October 1942, the Maritime Commission had
transferred all of its contractual and facility interests to the
Navy. Land acquisitions continued until the end of the war, and
the facility expanded to 191 acres. After the war, the property
was designated a Naval Industrial Reserve Shipyard, and
shipbuilding ceased. In September 1948, the Navy acquired the
Todd-owned property. In October 1958, DoD declared the
property excess. The Navy and Marine Reserve Training
Center retained eight acres, and the remaining property was
conveyed to the Port of Tacoma in January 1960.
The cleanup progress for Naval Station Todd-Tacoma for FY02
