Overview
In July 2024, Viterra submitted a project permit application to develop Crane pad installation - Cascadia Annex 4, located at 3333 New Brighton Road, Vancouver, British Columbia on federal lands and waters managed by the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority.
As part of the Project and Environmental Review for the proposed project under the Impact Assessment Act, the proposed project was posted on the Canadian Impact Assessment Registry with an opportunity for public comment between July 17, 2024 and August 15, 2024. The port authority will conduct formal consultation activities with stakeholders and Indigenous groups.
About the project
Viterra proposes to demolish the access point to an old wood dock near Cascadia's Annex 4 and construct a crane pad within the same general footprint. The project would consist of:
- Removal of the precast concrete access point and its two support piles
- Installation of four (4) 914-millimetre diameter piles - two offshore and two onshore piles
- These piles are required to support the new crane pad
- Installation of the crane pad
- The crane pad would consist of a galvanized fabricated steel assembly designed to be either lowered into place or constructed on-site
The new crane pad would be used to replace various terminal equipment during annual terminal shutdowns and access higher areas of the terminal that regularly require maintenance.
The work would be completed from land and/or water. Works from the water would be carried out using standard marine equipment.
