COMPANY 10 BE OPENED, JULY First and Finest Establish- ment of Kind in Juneau -Plant Is Complete The Northern Commercial Co., plans to open Juneau's first marine ways July 12, although it is par- tially open now. The site of the ways is directly north of the Small Boat Harbor, tide land that has been filled by 90,000 yards of crush- ed rock and gravel from the Alaska Juneau Mine rock dump. All of the ruction is of a permanent na- ow bus- the ture. On the premises is constructed a 50 x 100 foot store building and a 30 x 100 foot machine and repair shop. The marine railway is 450 feet long and is constructed on a six and one half percent grade. The elevation of the lower end of the railway is at a 7 foot minus tide level. This will give sufficient wa- ter over the cradle to enable haul- ing up the average fishing boat un- der almost any tide conditions. Dual Type Cradle The lower end is constructed on treated piling, cross timbers and rail stringers, while the upper end is supported by a solid concrete foundation. The cradle is the dual type with all steel construction and has two 54 foot by 30 foot cradles, which can be used either separate- ly or in tandem. By using the cradle in tandem, the total length of it will be 108 feet and will ac- commodate any boat up to 115 feet. Gross tonnage of the cradle in tan- dem is 300 tons, not 500 as some have stated, said Ernest G. White- | head, local manager. Work Basin Adjacent to the machine shop, a | work basin has been dredged to a idepth of 14 feet. The size of the ;bflsin is 150 feet by 200 feet. In the ‘basin are two floats, 12 by 150 feet, for the berthing of vessels. The | north float is equipped with diesel | fuel, gasoline and stove cil pumps, fresh water and electricity for the convenience of boat owners. A complete ‘line of Standard Oil marine products will be handled for the fishermen. The ways have a tank capacity of 30,000 gallons for fuel oil, gas and oil. The company is also equipped to dispense the latest automotive diesel fuel. Dock With Stiff-Leg Between the work basin and the shop is a 60 by 30 foot dock, which lis equipped with a stiff-leg of 15 ton capacity.
