The works will include reclamation, dredging, soil investigation and shore protection removal.
Dredging work will be carried out by dredgers which are assisted by tug boats. The dredger will have a safety working zone of 70m radius centred at the dredger. Dredged materials will be transported to the designated dumping ground by the hopper barges which are assisted by tug boats.
The soil investigation will involve borehole drilling and vibro-coring using jack-up barge. Tug boats will be used to shift the jack-up barges.
A safety boat will be on attendance to warn and direct craft in the vicinity to keep clear of working area.
Craft involved in the works will exhibit the appropriate local and international day and night signals.
When in the vicinity of the working area, mariners are reminded to:
a) Keep well clear of the working area;
b) Maintain a proper lookout;
c) Proceed at a safe speed and to navigate with caution;
d) Maintain a listening watch on VHF Channel 22 (Jurong Control);
and
