M.H. Golden Company was the contractor. The Coast Guard conducts Maritime Law Enforcement and stands by 24/7 for Search and Rescue, mostly boaters in distress and cruise medevacs. Also, ensuring Homeland Security, they escort cruise ships and some Navy assets entering and leaving San Diego Bay. (Photo by Erickson)
