## Description

The Council, as Statutory Harbour Authority has a requirement for the supply and emplacement of pontoons at three locations within Salcombe Harbour\. Salcombe Harbour is a small harbour in South Devon which is primarily a recreational and leisure port for small boats, many of which are berthed alongside existing Walcon 'system 21' pontoons which can be accessed from the shore\. These are in Batson Creek \(50° 14\.53N 003° 46\.05W\) and Shadycombe Creek \(50° 14\.50 N 003° 46\.05W\) which are both found immediately to the north of Salcombe town\. Although these dry out at low tide, demand for such berths exceeds supply and it was recently decided that the number of berths be increased\. In addition there are two deep water pontoons at Dentridge \(50° 14\.68N 003° 45\.55W\) which are currently connected to the fundus by block and chain\. These are at the end of their serviceable life and the decision has been taken to replace these with new pontoons which are connected to the fundus by piles\. Salcombe Harbour is a recognised ecoport and resides within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty \(AONB\), Site of Special Scientific Interest \(SSSI\) and is also a Local Nature Reserve\. Tender submissions must take special account of this\.
