North Queensland Bulk Ports (NQBP) advises that seismic survey works will take place in waters adjacent to the Bowen Jetty within the period of Monday 25 and Wednesday 29 May.

The works will be undertaken by Marine Earth Sciences on behalf of contractors WGA using a small, shallow-draft vessel and non-intrusive equipment to map seabed features.
