Amrize Pitt River Quarry Maintenance Dredging

Fraser River Pile & Dredge Inc. on behalf of Amrize Canada Inc. proposes to carry out periodic maintenance dredging at the water lot generally fronting 16101 Rannie Road in Pitt Meadows, BC. Dredging is required to remove accumulated sediment and re-establish required depths for safe access of barges and support vessels during all tidal conditions. Works following the same work plan were last carried out in September 2022.

The Project consists of dredging approximately 4,000 cubic metres of material per year using a barge-mounted crane and clamshell bucket. The dredge footprint will be approximately 8,870 square metres with a dredge grade up to -6 metres local low water. Dredged materials will be loaded onto a barge for transport and disposal at an approved disposal at sea site, or to a suitable upland location for reuse or disposal as applicable. The proposed works are anticipated to take four days to complete per event and carried out within the lower-risk timing window for this area.
