Burin Search and Rescue Wharf Construction
This is a non-designated project on federal lands or outside Canada. The listed authorities are responsible for the project assessment.
The proposed project involves the construction of a new treated cribwork finger pier wharf at the existing Search and Rescue (SAR) station located in Burin, NL. The new finger pier structure will consist of a stem section measuring 6.1 metres wide by 24.4 metres long and a headblock measuring 6.1 metres wide by 15.2 metres long; total wharf length will be 39.6 metres. The wharf will consist of standard treated timber cribwork filled with ballast and seated on a placed rock mattress. Prior to placement of the rock mattress, approximately 4000 cubic metres of sediment will be excavated from the harbour basin. In order to properly reach the target dredge area, a temporary dredge road or floating barge may be utilized. As part of the proposed project, an existing marginal wharf will be repaired and a new steel sheet pile facing added. The steel sheet piling will be anchored to bedrock and tied into the existing structure to ensure required structural support. Project work and activities will involve the usage of heavy equipment such as excavators and dump trucks as well as manual labour.
