Port of Botwood Wharf Rehabilitation Project

Exploits Valley Port Corporation is proposing to revitalize infrastructure at the Port of Botwood marine terminal, located on the north shore of the Bay of Exploits in Newfoundland and Labrador. As proposed, the Port of Botwood Wharf Rehabilitation Project would replace deteriorated wharf infrastructure to accommodate ships up to 60,000 deadweight tonnage. The project would include the removal or stabilization of unsafe structural elements, the installation of new steel or concrete piles, upgrades to communication and safety systems, and the resurfacing of existing roads and laydown areas. The project would also require infilling to support wharf construction.

Latest update

July 23, 2026 — The Impact Assessment Agency of Canada issued an early decision with reasons that no further assessment of the designated project is required under the Impact Assessment Act.
