Dexter holds CAD 4.29 million CW2462474 for floating-dock and pipe-pile replacement, while Connors Diving holds CAD 1.27 million 4500109325 for Wharf 403 pile jackets and concrete repairs; both awards are active but mobilisation and progress are unverified

Project sources

Meteghan Small Craft Harbour now has two distinct 2026 marine-construction awards. PSPC awarded Dexter Construction Company Limited CAD 4,292,100.00 contract CW2462474 to remove three floating-dock systems and associated pipe piles, except the middle set replaced in 2018, and install new docks and piles at the same location. DFO separately awarded Connors Diving Services Limited CAD 1,265,518.56 contract 4500109325 for Wharf 403 steel H-pile rehabilitation using concrete repairs and new fibre-reinforced polymer concrete jackets. The contracts have different owners of record, scopes and dates; neither published award proves mobilisation, installed units or acceptance.

Project anatomy

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Small Craft Harbours; floating-wharf package procured through Public Services and Procurement Canada
Delivery parties
Dexter Construction Company Limited - prime for floating docks and pipe piles under CW2462474, Connors Diving Services Limited - prime for Wharf 403 pile jackets and concrete repairs under 4500109325, Dock fabrication, pile supply, diving, underwater concrete, FRP jacket, barge, survey and environmental lower tiers - not named in the cited public records
Contract route
PSPC ran solicitation WS5751535415 for the floating-dock and pipe-pile package and awarded Dexter CW2462474 on 30 July 2026 at CAD 4,292,100.00. DFO ran separate solicitation 30007912 and awarded Connors Diving 4500109325 on 17 June 2026 at CAD 1,265,518.56. The procurement records do not establish a contractual relationship between Dexter and Connors or disclose either lower-tier chain.
Execution window
CW2462474 runs from 30 July to 30 November 2026. Contract 4500109325 records a 4 June 2026 administrative start, 17 June award and 31 March 2027 end. These are contractual periods rather than proof of site access, dock removal, diving, jacket installation, final survey or harbour acceptance.
Works package
Dexter's package removes three existing floating-dock systems and associated pipe piles, except the middle set replaced in 2018, then installs new floating docks and pipe piles at the same location. Connors Diving's C2-00907 package rehabilitates Wharf 403 steel H-piles: remove existing concrete encasement, make partial above-water and underwater repairs, and replace circular or rectangular encasements with stay-in-place FRP concrete jackets and underwater concrete. The technical specification pays jackets and repaired piles per accepted unit but does not justify publishing a pile count without the controlled drawings and as-built record.
Marine interfaces
Both packages occupy an active core fishing harbour managed by the Harbour Authority of Meteghan, but their interfaces must remain evidence-led. The pile-repair specification requires safe facility circulation, debris and turbidity containment, temporary cautionary navigation buoys coordinated with the harbour authority, specialized underwater access, inspection and a final survey. The floating-wharf award creates a separate removal, temporary access, fabrication, pile-driving and reinstatement chain.
Commercial evidence boundary
The two exact base contract totals sum arithmetically to CAD 5,557,618.56, but that is not a published whole-project budget or final account. Keep CAD 4,292,100.00 against CW2462474 and CAD 1,265,518.56 against 4500109325. Unit rates, actual jacket and repair counts, dock quantities, amendments, certified progress, claims, retention and final accounts remain undisclosed.

Dexter received the floating-wharf package

The CAD 4.29 million award closed the prime for removal and replacement of three dock systems and associated pipe piles, but not the fabrication or field-progress chain.

Source

Connors Diving received the Wharf 403 pile-repair package

The separate CAD 1.27 million award placed concrete-removal, underwater repairs and FRP-jacket work under a named marine-diving prime through March 2027.

Source

DFO posted the floating-wharf navigation notice

The notice fixed the registry identity and Meteghan worksite coordinates while leaving approval, procurement and construction as separate gates.
