The Western Basin Dredging and Disposal Project is central to the future development of Gladstone as a 21st Century industrial city.

Over the next 30 years, GPC will secure our objectives of economic prosperity and jobs for Gladstone, Queensland and Australia.

For the last three decades, the expansion of the port facilities and other industries has been strategically planned to maintain a balance of industrial development, protection of the environment and sustaining a fishing harbour.

While dredging has occurred since the 1960s, the Western Basin dredging project in Gladstone's harbour will constitute the most significant expansion of the Gladstone port's capabilities since commercial activities began in the 1920s.

We regularly update the local Gladstone community on the project through tours and events and as well as the Environmental Impacts Briefing.
