	The Hunters Point Naval Shipyard, due for decommissioning, has undergone a year-long community process of planning for its reclamation and re-use. The latest tenant to move in and try to save its historic use as a shipyard is Astoria Metals, which is planning to rebuild old battleships into floating power plants for use in underdeveloped countries. The plan, costing $20 million, will take three years, and gives city planners and neighborhood activists hope that the maritime use of the historic 550-acre site can be preserved. Astoria's tenancy was ended under a cloud, with numerous charges of toxic discharge violations pending. The military's toxic residue, however, will take until 2007 to completely decontaminate.

	The Hunters Point Naval Shipyard, due for decommissioning, has undergone a year-long community process of planning for its reclamation and re-use. The latest tenant to move in and try to save its historic use as a shipyard is Astoria Metals, which is planning to rebuild old battleships into floating power plants for use in underdeveloped countries. The plan, costing $20 million, will take three years, and gives city planners and neighborhood activists hope that the maritime use of the historic 550-acre site can be preserved. Astoria's tenancy was ended under a cloud, with numerous charges of toxic discharge violations pending. The military's toxic residue, however, will take until 2007 to completely decontaminate.
