DBCT has been crippled since the collapse of a stockyard reclaiming machine on February 15.

 

Since the incident, on March 17 the stockyard stacker machine was reinstated, and on Monday inspections of shiploader 1 were completed and it was returned to service.

 

Inspections are continuing on Stacker Reclaimer 1 (SR1) and management anticipated SR1 would be reintroduced to service on April 5. This will mean all the machines bar the damaged RL1 will be in service and terminal capacity will increase to 95% of nominal capacity.
