Queensgate Routine Maintenance Dredging

The proposed project

Queensgate Marina proposes to conduct maintenance dredging to establish safe navigation and moorage for house floats and vessels at its facility located within Annacis Channel at 798 South Dyke Road, New Westminster. The scope of works includes dredging a footprint of approximately 4,000 square meters to a target dredge depth of -2.5 metres chart datum. The total dredge volume will be approximately 6,000 cubic metres. Dredging will be completed with a barge-mounted crane and clamshell and will take approximately ten days. The area was last dredged in 2014 under PER project number 14-111 and 2020 under PER 20-120. 

The proposed amendment

Queensgate Marina is looking to amend the permitted project with the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority by proposing to increase the allowable dredge volume from 6,000 to 8,000 cubic metres and extend the dredge footprint by 3 metres to the north of the marina (total footprint would increase from 4,000 to 4500 square metres), as additional dredging is required due to unanticipated sediment deposition from recent freshets.
