AME Marine Support Base Dredge and Reclamation

Overview

AME is proposing to expand the existing facility in Henderson and further develop the waterfront infrastructure by dredging within an area of the Northern Harbour, Jervoise Bay.  The proposal is immediately adjacent to the AME site (49 Clarence Beach Road, Henderson) and proposes to utilise the dredge sediments to create a land-backed wharf.

Why your views matter

At this initial stage of the EIA process, comment is simply sought on whether or not the EPA should assess a proposal and, if so, what level of assessment is considered appropriate.

What happens next

Following the seven day public comment period and consideration of any comments received, the EPA will decide whether or not this proposal requires environmental impact assessment and, if so, what level of assessment will be applied.

The EPA's decisions on level of assessment are released each Monday on the EPA's website.
