Project Name:

Berth 10
City/County:

Oakland, Alameda County
Comment Period:

10/22/2024 - 11/11/2024
Project Description:

Berth 10 is an 872-foot-long wharf structure that was constructed in the 1940s and located in the Port of Oakland (Port) Seaport at the east end of the Outer Harbor Channel. Fendering systems (fenders) and marine bollards (bollards) are components of the wharf structure. Berth 10 is utilized for berthing tugs, barges, dredging equipment, and other generally small to medium vessels (e.g. this is where we anticipate an emissions capture barge berthing). The fenders and bollards are past their useful life and in need of replacement across the entire wharf.
