The Port Commission approved the construction of a Marine Fueling Station at Swantown Marina at its September 12, 2016 Commission meeting. Construction of the new facility began in October. Completed work to date includes:
- Underground tank installation
- New float construction and installation
- All in-water work is complete
- All identified environmental mitigation is complete
During construction, there will be several impacts to the public:
- The sewer pumpout facility is out-of-service until the fuel dock is operational
- The Swantown launch ramp will be closed for one week in mid-April for reconstruction of the roadway. The actual dates will be determined based on weather.
