<strong>Seaforth River Terminal - Mersey Estuary UK</strong><br />The proposal will be carried out in two phases. Phase 1 involve the berth construction and will include the following elements:<ul><li> The construction of a new wall (approximately 750m long) between the southwest corner of Seaforth and along the low water edge of an intertidal area known as ‘<em>Seaforth Triangle</em>’. </li><li> The deepening an area of the river bed in front of the proposed terminal (to -15m CD) to create a 40m wide ‘Berth Pocket’ that will allow Post Panamax vessels to berth in this area.</li><li> The reclamation of the Seaforth Triangle area behind this new wall (using materials dredged during Berth Pocket deepening work).</li></ul> Phase 2 will involve the deepening of the Outer Estuary access channel to the proposed River Terminal. Initially MDHC will operate this new terminal with the approach channel retained at its existing declared navigable depth of -6.9m CD.<br /><br /> Within 10 years of the quay wall completion MDHC also propose to deepen shallower areas (mainly the Formby Bar and Crosby Shoal) in the Outer Estuary navigation channel to -8m CD.

• The construction of a new wall (approximately 750m long) between the southwest corner of Seaforth and along the low water edge of an intertidal area known as ‘Seaforth Triangle’.
• The deepening an area of the river bed in front of the proposed terminal (to -15m CD) to create a 40m wide ‘Berth Pocket’ that will allow Post Panamax vessels to berth in this area.
• The reclamation of the Seaforth Triangle area behind this new wall (using materials dredged during Berth Pocket deepening work).
