Georgetown Harbour Planning & Reconstruction
Harbourside Engineering Consultants was hired by DFO Small Craft Harbours to design a replacement structure for half of the Georgetown pier and a new containment cell to place all the excavated sediments form under the structure footprint. The project’s design phase was complete in 2018, and construction was completed in 2024.
CCG SAR Geotechnical & Servicing Study
The Canadian Coast Guard propose to construct a new CCG Search and Rescue Station at the Freeport (South Cove) Small Craft Harbour on Long Island, Digby County, NS. Harbourside was engaged to conduct a geotechnical investigation and site servicing study.
Petit Cap Wharf Reconstruction and Expansion
Small craft harbours are the heart of the Maritimes. In 2021, Harbourside was hired by DFO Small Craft Harbours through a Standing Offer to develop two separate tender packages. These were created in order to design and replace the existing marginal wharf structure for the Petit-Cap Harbour, New Brunswick.
Cabot Shores: Malpeque Harbour Development
Lobster fishing and aquaculture vessels struggle daily to access Malpeque harbour in PEI. In 2019, a steering committee was formed to develop a long-term solution. The committee engaged Harbourside Engineering Consulting and MRSB Consulting Services Inc. to conduct an Economic Impact Study and New Wharf Design for Malpeque Harbour Authority.
Saint-Édouard-De-Kent Containment Cell
Due to environmental requirements, a new containment cell for dredge spoils was needed at the Saint-Édouard-de-Kent Harbour in Kent County, New Brunswick. Public Services and Procurement and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Small Craft Harbours, retained Harbourside Engineering for this project in 2021.
Souris Marine Terminal
In 2012, the Souris Harbour Authority required engineering consultations and analysis services. The goal was to evaluate the operations and conditions surrounding the Souris Marine Terminal, and potential future upgrades to the facility.
Skinners Pond Breakwater Repairs
The bulkhead breakwater structure at the Skinners Pond facility had severely deteriorated by 2011. As such, Public Works and Government Services Canada were looking to have a concept developed and the detailed design caried out of the substantial repairs that were needed.
