I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
Work
is underway to upgrade berth infrastructure to allow for the increased use of
shore tension units so that vessels alongside are impacted less by the
long wave surge. A study with oceanographic experts into reducing long wave
surge and berth closure times is also underway.
