A
plan
for
its
construction
was
drawn
up
in
1H47
Its
estimated
cost
at
that
time
was
about
$7,500,000.
The
plan
calls
for
construction
of
two
large
sea
basins,
many
acres
of
buildings
and
workshops,
a
score
of
double-sided
berths
for
warships
of
all
sizes,
a
floating
dry
dock
to
hold
the
largest
known
battleship
and
huge
protecting
dikes.
The
work
Is
going
on
in
the
Wadden
Sea,
the
stretch
of
water
between
the
Zuyder
Zeu
dike
and
the
Frisian
Islands,
the
chain
of
Islands
fringing
Holland
in
the
North
Sea.
The
project
is
divided
into
two
parts
The
first
bx,m
will
be
finished
in
1!04,
the
econl
in
1957.
The
project
is
being
paid
for
entirely
out
of
normal
budget
funds.
But
it
will
cost
considerably
more
than
t!i
ordinal
estimate
of
$7
500.000
Already
most
of
that
has
been
spent,
and
there
are
several
years'
work
ahead.
