PASCAGOULA, Miss. — Gov. Phil Bryant spent the day before Election Day in South Mississippi breaking ground on a $7.5 million blast and paint facility that will bring another 40 jobs to the VT Bollinger’s Pascagoula shipyard. Bryant kicked in $2 million in Hurricane Katrina funds through a Community Development Block Grant. VT Halter will invest about $5.5 million for the enclosed blast and paint facility that will be built at the north end of the shipyard at Bayou Casotte. (Sources: Sun Herald, WLOX-TV, 08/03/15)
