Sventoji Port which has been covered in sand may serve yachts in a couple of weeks

 

If weather conditions are favourable, the Sventoji Port which has been covered in sand may again serve yachts in a couple of weeks, even though there were plans to postpone the channel dredging works till the year 2012, the Klaipeda daily Vakaru Ekspresas reports.

As the Klaipeda State Seaport Authority and the contractor of the works, the Latvian company BGS agreed, the contractor is to carry out the works in two weeks if weather conditions are favourable.

The shipping season usually lasts till 15 September, therefore the Klaipeda State Seaport Authority was considering whether it was worthy to deepen the Sventoji Port channel that was covered in sand in June, only 10 days after the official opening of the port, writes LETA/ELTA.

On Tuesday the Klaipeda State Seaport Authority announced that a special commission had examined factors why the Sventoji mouth's channel got covered in sand. Unusual meteorological conditions were named as one of the reasons. North and north-west winds would dominate and as the wind gust would reach 14 meters per seconds, waves of 1.5 meter high would form which in turn triggered a slip of part of accumulated ground.
