Our cultures are similar and Geo-Marine's technical capabilities complement our own very well. In particular, Geo-Marine's environmental expertise and customer base will allow us to expand our reach in terms of clients, technical capabilities and geography." "Of particular note," Mr. Otten continued, "is Geo-Marine's long-term relationship with the U.S. Navy. Just this past July, they were selected, along with two other firms, for a new, $75 million five-year ID/IQ with NAVFAC. We have identified the U.S. Navy as a key market that Versar wanted to penetrate, and with the acquisition of Geo-Marine, we believe we have accomplished that.
