Silt Curtains for dredging are important in some operations to control the effects of turbidity during activities. Operators must also be prepared for spill response and the safe storage of liquids onshore and on barges and be ready and able to clean up any spills immediately.
Spill response for Ports is a very important concern. With constant vehicle traffic and hydraulic equipment used in stevedore operations, there is a potential risk for spills of hazardous substances to end up in the waterway or stormwater system.
The Ports & Dredging industries are dynamic and environmentally challenging industries facing many potential control, containment and spill clean up requirements. We recommend a range of spill response, stormwater protection, sediment control and containment solutions to ensure your organisation is prepared to manage liquids and sediment contamination on land and in waterways during Port and Dredging activities..
To assist your environmental efforts, we have compiled a list of potential risks and corresponding product solutions. Please click on a question relevant to your organisation for more information.
Dredging and excavation operations causes large quantities of silt and sediment to be disrupted in marine environments. This could potentially release contaminants into environmentally sensitive regions of the aquatic system.
Vessels may be carrying stored volumes of fuel, lubricants and oil and should therefore be equipped with suitable spill kits and appropriate storage to contain spilled hazardous liquids.
This situation is a great example of a time where construction site sediment and spill control and containment are required

In the event of a leak during drilling operations, this could cause large quantities of oil or other hazardous substances to migrate into environmentally sensitive regions of the aquatic stem, if not contained or cleaned up properly.
During construction operations such as earth moving and excavation, there is a potential risk for silt and sediment to leave the site and migrate to environmentally sensitive areas or run off into the stormwater drain. If excavating in or along side a waterway, turbidity in the waterway will need to be addressed. Here are some construction site sediment control products to assist with environmental compliance during your project.

Spills from fueling and operation of vehicles and hydraulic equipment should be contained and require immediate remediation to ensure any hazardous substances do not enter near-by stormwater drain pits or pollute environmentally sensitive areas.
Any spills or leaks of hazardous chemicals should be contained at the source so it can be remediated effectively and ensure the surrounding environment is protected. Bunding and containment products are ideal in liquid storage scenarios. Because they are portable and permanent options there is something to suit almost any situation.

Any spills that enter the stormwater system and pollute the waterways can result in immediate fines to the company and it’s staff. As a result, our stormwater solutions ensure any hazardous substances or debris is captured or contained at the source to protect your stormwater system.
