LAFAYETTE (AP) — A Lafayette company has been awarded a $7 million contract by the federal government to survey the seafloor offshore from Louisiana. C&C Technologies will be involved with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Officials say that agency uses seafloor data to update nautical charts used by commercial and recreational mariners. The company is operating two vessels around the clock. The work is expected to take about eight months to complete. C&C Technologies says about 50 people are working on the project. The money comes from the national economic stimulus package.
