Doesn't the Federation normally use the prefix SS on it's civilian ships (like Freighters) instead of USS? Mining Freighters and Construction ships are more likely to work for the Federation than Starfleet.

Hummm, they build Starfleet stations...

The show always put Freighters as Civilian rather than Starfleet and Construction Ships can be considered a type of Freighter. Even though they build Starfleet Stations, doesn't necessarily mean the ship itself is Starfleet.

From what I have read and extrapalated from inferanceses from the shows and books, and other references  is that  the most  of  the Construction ships and cargo vessels are  leased  to the Federation but are owned by "Civilian owners."    Simmiular to the US liberty  ships that transported cargoes  to Britian during WWII.  Civilian owned  , civilian crewed , but operation with the blessings and  directions from the goverment. all though there  is also a branch of starfleet simmular to the  US Navy Seebee's.
