The filling in and the construction of the quay wall are contracted out ‘design & construct’. Therefore the contractor decides where the sand comes from. However, in order to minimize environmental impact the PoRA will point at the possibility of using sand from projects elsewhere in the port. The quality of the sand and timing of availability are important factors in this respect. The additional projects are included in the total investment, but are contracted separately and according a so called RAW form. The prequalification for both contract will start soon and the allotment will take place in 2011.
BTT will realize approximately 350,000 m3 tank storage capacity on the new site. In the first phase, 200,000 m3 is being built at existing land adjacent to the water to be filled in.
