The Department of Infrastructure (DOI) is wanting to gain feedback from businesses interested in recycling sediment removed from Peel Marina.
In 2020 and 2021, around 23,000m3 of sediment was dredged from the Peel Marina to “ensure its ongoing operation", it was then placed in a purpose-built temporary storage lagoon next to Peel Power Station to dry out.
According to the DOI, “research has taken place which indicates that grading and/or soil treatment could improve its quality to such an extent that the majority would no longer be classified as waste”.
The Department said this would “avoid the need” for most of the material being disposed of through landfill, and provide several thousand tons of useable sand-like material for the successful contractor.
It is aiming to process an initial 16,000m3 of stored material, with the option to process sediment from ongoing maintenance dredging for up to five years, estimated to be approximately 2,000m3 of sediment each year.
Full details are available on the Isle of Man Government Procurement Portal.
