The transfer of the hydraulic facilities to the branch was carried out in order to organize constant monitoring of their technical condition, as well as to perform repair dredging in order to ensure maintenance of design depths in conditions of periodic drift of the bottom of structures. It will ensure the required level of navigation safety in the Kaliningrad seaport.

This year, after carrying out measurements and determining the required amount of work, the Kaliningrad Directorate plans to carry out repair dredging at the facilities “Water area of the berths of the Right Quay” and “Water area of Kosse Island” in order to ensure the safe passage of design vessels to the corresponding berths, as well as annual dredging at the facilities “Volnaya Harbor water area”, “Industrial Harbor” and “Torgovaya Harbor and approaches to it” in order to maintain their design depths.

The North-Western Basin Branch will carry out dredging repair works using vessels of the dredging fleet of the Arkhangelsk Branch.
