The vessel is intended to be the common design for the new training ships for the five state maritime academies in the US to replace the existing older vessels. It will have state of the art diesel electric propulsion, twin engine rooms for safety and for teaching purposes (one engine room running and the other for teaching), accommodations for up to 600 cadets and 100 operating crew, faculty and support staff. Extensive classrooms, training workshops and lab space is provided to give cadets the latest in teaching tools and technology. The vessels are also outfitted to act as command and support vessels for emergency response and humanitarian assistance, like what was done by the existing training vessels for hurricanes Katrina and Sandy and for the Haiti earthquake. For this purpose the vessels can expand the number of persons accommodated onboard and is provided with RoRo cargo space, cargo crane and deck space for containers and special modules.

The additional funds would support the one-time procurement and retrofitting of two used cargo ships to replace aging training ships provided to the State Maritime Academies. Specifically, this funding would be used to replace the TS Empire State, currently assigned to the State University of New York Maritime College, and TS Kennedy, currently assigned to the Massachusetts Maritime Academy. These resources would reflect the maximum Federal commitment; any additional resources necessary for two replacement training ships would be achieved through a cost-share. 16 Agency: DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Bureau: MARITIME ADMINISTRATION Heading: Operations and Training FY 2019 Appendix Page: 906 FY 2019 Pending Request: $152,428,000 Proposed Amendment: $300,000,000 Revised Request: $452,428,000 (In the appropriations language under the above heading, delete "$152,428,000" and substitute $452,428,000, of which $300,000,000 shall remain available until expended to acquire from any source, and to convert as necessary, used vessels suitable for school ship service to replace training ships in the National Defense Reserve Fleet and for related expenses, including administrative expenses; and add at the end the following new provisos: Provided further, That any unobligated balances previously appropriated for the National Security Multi-Mission Vessel program or vessel design under this heading may be transferred to and merged with this appropriation, to remain available until expended for the same purposes as the $300,000,000 described under this heading: Provided further, That the Maritime Administrator shall ensure that the conversion or modernization of any vessel purchased using amounts provided under this heading shall occur in a shipyard located in the United States on terms and conditions as determined by the Maritime Administrator: Provided further, That the Maritime Administrator shall select such vessels to be purchased under such terms and conditions as the Maritime Administrator in his discretion shall determine.)
