Part 2 of 2. Photos of U.S. In-Water Shipbreaking Sites Other Than in Virginia

S-PHOTOS 3 (below). U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) photos of shipbreaking at unspecified site(s), but NOT at Bay Bridge in Virginia.

The following U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) photos of shipbreaking at unspecified site(s) were on p. 11-13 (their Figures 1-3) of the March 2005 General Accountability Office (GAO) report about MARAD (66), and are, accordingly, presumably of U.S. shipbreaking facilities. These photos are probably at Brownsville, Texas because they resemble S-PHOTO 1 and S-PHOTO 2. I used screen capture software to copy these images from a PDF file.
