About
(inactive) Department of Transport awarded a contract to Birdon Pty Ltd for the removal and disposal of the abandoned vessel 'Atlantic Ocean' from the Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour in Western Australia.
The vessel was subject to proceedings under the Western Australian Marine Act (1982) and the Disposal of Uncollected Goods Act 1970 after the owner failed to pay accommodation fees or remove it.
No suitable tenders were received for purchase and removal, leading to this disposal contract.
This contract highlights the government's process for managing abandoned vessels, often involving specialized maritime disposal firms like Birdon Pty Ltd, which has a track record in such operations.
