ong, of berthing space, one nT? head pier extending approximately 150 feet from the
shore line with 400 feet of berthing space across the head of the "T", one
warehouse approximately 140 by 55 feet, and an open storage area associated
with the wharf.
Docked at the wharf are two coastal freighters, one is appro-ximately
120 feet long and the other is approximately 130 feet long. The "T" head pier
does not have any vessels docked at it and is usable only by small vessels, as
the pier is located in shallow water. The two piers, which are associated with
the warehouse, each have six "swratoti" PF class vessels docked at them.
