2023 Maintenance Dredging Program

PKM Canada Marine Terminal Limited Partnership proposes to conduct maintenance dredging along Berths 1 through 5 at the Vancouver Wharves facility. Dredging activities are expected to be completed over four to five weeks within the fisheries' least-risk window for the Burrard Inlet (August 16 to February 28). Dredging is required to maintain operational capacity for ship berthing.  

Sediment will be removed using a clamshell dredge and dredged material will be stockpiled and dewatered at the facility. Once treated, dewatered sediment will be transported by truck and disposed of at an appropriately licensed disposal facility. 

Recent maintenance dredging occurred in 2011, 2014, 2015, 2017, and 2019.
