Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach, Calif. (Feb. 10, 2004) -- A newly
installed buoy-based security barrier stretches around the amphibious
transport dock ship USS Denver (LPD 9) as the ship takes on
ammunition. As a visual line of demarcation, the barrier serves
to warn civilian boaters to stay in the small craft channel of Anaheim
Bay, which is owned by the Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach,
Calif. The barriers also help security personnel to quickly and
easily identify any vessels crossing into the restricted area.
Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach is the Navy's primary West Coast
ordnance storage, loading and maintenance installation, serving an
average of eighty warships each year. U.S. Navy photo by
