Bécancour Port Terminal Expansion Project – B6 Wharf

Société du parc industriel et portuaire de Bécancour is proposing to expand the existing marine terminal by constructing a new wharf (B6) in Bécancour, Quebec. As proposed, the new wharf would be approximately 390 meters long and have one berth designed to handle ships larger than 25 000 deadweight tonnage (DWT). The project would also include dredging activities and the construction of a storage area.

Latest update

March 13, 2026 — The Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (IAAC) issued an early decision that no further assessment is required. IAAC’s analysis found the project’s potential adverse effects within federal jurisdiction would be limited or addressed through other means, as noted in the Notice of Early Decision with Reasons.
