Lyon Shipyard Inc., one of the smallest shipyards in Norfolk, has won nearly $2 million of ship repair work for three overhaul jobs. The contracts from the Army at Fort Eustis, including an $821,584 overhaul of a crane barge, a $447,575 overhaul of a landing craft and work on a tug worth $321,908. Those jobs will keep the small yard's 100 employees busy through the end of the year. It also received two Navy contracts worth $329,267 combined for the overhaul of berthing barges. Lyon Shipyard is on the Elizabeth River's eastern branch. (Staff) by CNB
