Busy cargo day at State Pier
The Panamanian-registered bulk hauler Tai Honesty unloads road salt, while the Antigua Barbuda-flagged cargo ship BBC Eagle unloads manufactured steel at State Pier in New London Monday, December 16, 2019.
DRVN Enterprises, which imports the road salt, has a contract to bring salt to the pier through this winter. Skanska Trevcon II JV, a contractor hired by General Dynamics Electric Boat to manage the delivery of cargo being used in the construction of a new building where the ballistic missile submarines is getting under way, is working with Gateway, the port management company, to use the pier for the staging of construction materials.
The pier will be closed to cargo this spring when construction of the pier to accommodate wind power projects is expected to get under way.
