The works will be carried out by two crane barges, two flat-top barges and one work boat. Two tugboats will provide assistance. Vessels engaged in the works will display signals as prescribed in international and local regulations.

A working area of approximately 50 metres around the working vessels will be established. Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights will be laid to mark the positions of the anchors extending from the working vessels.

The hours of work will be from 0700 to 1900 hours. No works will be carried out on Sundays and public holidays. Vessels employed for the works will stay at the works areas outside the hours of work.

Silt curtains, which are large pieces of netting to contain mud and sediments extending from the sea surface to the seabed will be established within the works areas. Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights will be laid to mark the extent of the silt curtains.

Vessels navigating in the vicinity should proceed with caution.
