Over the past several months, Hatfield’s team of environmental specialists, marine biologists and construction environmental monitors have been supporting the BC Ferries Swartz Bay Berth 5 Upgrades Project, in North Saanich, British Columbia. To accommodate larger vessels in Berth 5, BC Ferries has undertaken berth improvements including bedrock removal and new mooring infrastructure. Hatfield was proud to support Ruskin Construction Ltd with comprehensive environmental management for the Project throughout marine construction works involving pile installation, underwater blasting, dredging, habitat offsetting construction, and more. Our depth of expertise and team of industry leading environmental professionals equip Hatfield to respond to highly technical and resource-demanding marine projects throughout BC’s West Coast.

This is not a safe dive operation. There are at least 6 safety related offences in the image above. Who ever is diving the scuba tank needs to get with the current diving safety practices. I think the contractor can be fined for scuba diving on a construction site.
Well if something falls from the sky, at least he is wearing his hard hat. Are there no rules regarding diving at a construction site in BC ?
No full face, no bail out / pony bottle, no comms, no tended line And you are fiving at, in your own words, an active construction and Marine activity site. Terrible look for BC Labor and diving
lol no bailouts, no comms, SCUBA in a construction site! Come on!
Great work, as inspiring as always

1wSCUBA at a BC Ferry Terminal? There’s a time and a place for that mode of diving and it’s not at Swartz Bay or in 2025!
