Kochi, July 24

The Kandla-based Jaisu Shipping has bagged the contract worth Rs 19 crore from Kochi port for maintenance of dredging in the channel for a period of three months. The company would carry out the work on quantity basis.

The port officials said that this was only an interim arrangement for smooth port operations during the monsoon.

Earlier, Dredging Corporation of India has expressed its inability to undertake the work due to other commitments.

Meanwhile, the Bhaba Atomic Research Centre has conducted a tracer study using radio active isotopes on the dredged materials and it was found that there was least possibility of dredged material coming back to the channel.

Based on the recommendations made by BARC, the port had also extended the dumping ground to the North and South in the outer channel.
