Work is expected to be completed by January 2021 with $17.69 million of funding expiring at the end of FY2020.

USS Harry S Truman will undergo non-nuclear propulsion plant repairs in Hampton Roads, Virginia whilst nuclear propulsion plant work will be carried out in cooperation with the Norfolk Naval Shipyard.
