Riverside Construction Materials (RCM) proposes to complete dock maintenance and improvements (including expansion) at its existing Port Bristol Terminal located along the Delaware River in Bristol, Bucks County, PA (40.130908, -74.821509). The existing 45’ by 590’ floating dock would be replaced with a 55.25’ by 899’ fixed concrete mooring pier with three new associated breasting dolphins. Two new catwalks and an associated mooring dolphin measuring would also be constructed, and the existing conveyor would be replaced in-kind. The applicant proposes to start construction in July of 2025. The total project is anticipated to take approximately 2 years, with in-water work being performed throughout that time period. The stated purpose of the project is to replace the deteriorated docking system with a modern system that provides safer, more stable mooring, provides greater flexibility for the offloading and loading of barges and vessels, and is more resilient to extreme weather events. More details are available in Public Notice & Plan documents. Public comments are requested by July 31, 2025.
