==== Project title ====
Middlesbrough Port Quays 1 and 2 Dredging and Disposal

==== Project background ====
Able UK Limited are seeking to expand the current capacity of their operations at Middlesbrough Port, in order to futureproof the site for future commercial needs, such as the increased approach depths required by vessels. Further detail can be found within the attached Marine Planning Statement (D/I/D/149058/501).

This marine licence application will include capital dredging works to achieve the previously licensed dredge depth across the expanded berth, -7.0mCD, and a deeper approach channel being dredged to a depth of -6.5mCD, as shown on Drawing No. AMP-006-00015 E. This is the capacity required to allow for the berthing, loading and unloading of vessels which seek to continue to use Middlesbrough Port, but which require maintained and expanded channels. The capital dredge to extend the berth and deepen the channel will require 44,400m3 of material to be removed, with subsequent maintenance of circa 1,000m3 per annum. The maintenance dredge of the existing berth will involve an initial dredge of 24,600m3, followed by subsequent maintenance of circa 2,000m3 per annum.

The length of licence proposed is 10 years, with routine sampling to be undertaken every 3 years.

==== Programme of works ====
Works to undertake dredging at Middlesbrough Port will take place on an as-needed basis, dictated by tenants. There is no set proposed works timing, however it is considered that if undertaken together, the initial capital and maintenance dredge of the existing berth and proposed extensions will take place over a period of approximately 20 days. For the initial dredge this is considered likely to be 20 consecutive days, but subsequent maintenance is likely to be upto 20 days per annum, as required to maintain the licenced depth.

Start and end dates are therefore proposed to be the dates of the licence i.e. 30/06/2024-30/06/2034.

Disposal operations will be undertaken intermittently between dredging operations as the TSHDs are filled, and as such, all disposal activities will take place over a similar time period per dredge campaign.
