English: The ramp of the USNS Sgt Mate Kocak lowers during an off-load/cross-leveling operation to retrograde equipment into the caves, belonging to the Marine Corps Prepositioning Program-Norway. During this operation more than 150 vehicles and 200 shipping containers were transferred on or off the Kocak and staged for transportation to the caves or loaded back onto the ship. The MCPP-N facility is comprised of eight locations totaling more than 900,000 square feet of storage space. Inside the caves is 471,445 sq. ft. of climate controlled storage space, regulated to between 45 to 55 percent humidity and a regulated temperature of between 45 to 50 degrees. This precise regulation allow for tents, vehicle tires and parts and other climate sensitive equipment to be stored safely, and maintain a high level of accessibility to be readily deployable for any contingency that may arise.
