ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
South Texas Assets:
On February 23, 2017, our Board of Directors approved management's recommendation to place our South Texas facilities located in Aransas Pass and Ingleside, Texas, up for sale. Our Texas South Yard in Ingleside, Texas, is located on the northwest corner of the intersection of the U.S. Intracoastal Waterway and the Corpus Christi Ship Channel. The 45-foot deep Corpus Christi Ship Channel provides direct and unrestricted access to the Gulf of Mexico. Our Texas North Yard in Aransas Pass, Texas, is located along the U.S. Intracoastal Waterway and is approximately three miles north of the Corpus Christi Ship Channel. These properties are currently underutilized and represent excess capacity within our Fabrication division. Our net book value of property, plant and equipment for these assets was $104.5 million at September 30, 2017. We measure and record assets held for sale at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
On August 25, 2017, our South Texas facilities were impacted by Hurricane Harvey, which made landfall as a category 4 hurricane. As a result, we suffered damages to our South Texas buildings and equipment. Through September 30, 2017, we have incurred approximately $265,000 in clean-up and repair related costs and we expect to incur additional future repair costs in excess of our deductible which management believes are probable of being recovered through insurance proceeds. We maintain coverage on these assets up to a maximum of $25.0 million, subject to a 3.0% deductible with a minimum deductible of $500,000. We are working diligently with our insurance agents and adjusters to finalize our estimate of the damage; however, it may be several months, or even longer, before we can finalize our assessment and receive final payment from our insurance underwriters. Our insurance underwriters have made an initial payment of $3.0 million, and we have recorded a liability for future repairs of $2.7 million which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on our balance sheet at September 30, 2017. Based upon our initial assessment of the damages and insurance coverage, management believes that there is no basis to record a net loss at this time and that insurance proceeds will at a minimum be sufficient to reimburse us for all damages and repair costs. Our final assessment of the damages incurred to our South Texas assets as well as the amount of insurance proceeds we will receive could be more or less than this amount when the claim is ultimately settled and such differences could be material.
As a result of the decision to place our South Texas facilities up for sale, we have and will continue to incur costs associated with maintaining these facilities. These costs include insurance, general maintenance of the properties in their current state, property taxes and retained employees which will be expensed as incurred. We do not expect the sale of these assets to impact our ability to operate our Fabrication division. Our South Texas assets held for sale do not qualify for discontinued operations presentation.
Prospect Shipyard Assets:
We lease a 35-acre complex 26 miles from the Gulf of Mexico in Houma, Louisiana. We have entered into an agreement to terminate the lease no later than December 31, 2017, with the owner of the property (currently a senior vice president within the Company and the former chief executive officer of LEEVAC Shipyards, LLC) to facilitate an orderly disposal of assets at the facility. Our remaining lease payments are not material. We have classified the machinery and equipment remaining at this shipyard as assets held for sale. Our net book value of property, plant and equipment for these assets was $2.5 million at September 30, 2017. We measure and record assets held for sale at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. We recorded an impairment of $389,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Additionally, we sold two drydocks from our Prospect Shipyard for proceeds of $2.0 million and recorded a loss on sale of $259,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. We do not expect the sale of these assets to impact our ability to service our Shipyards customers. The future anticipated costs expected to be incurred prior to the termination of this lease are not significant to our consolidated financial statements. Our Prospect Shipyard assets held for sale do not qualify for discontinued operations presentation.
A summary of the significant assets included in assets held for sale as of September 30, 2017, at our South Texas facilities and our Prospect Shipyard is as follows (in thousands):
