This is an excellent potential site for an oceanfront aggregate resource property. The property was logged a few years ago and there is a very thin layer of overburden above a substantial sand, gravel and stone aggregate resource that is close to the shoreline. The property is accessible by both land and water; there is forest service access road from the nearby community of Powell River.

The foreshore is very well protected with deep water making it an excellent site for barge and deep sea ship transport. Currently there is a 10 hectare foreshore licence in place for a log dump and storage.

The current owner has a waste site permit in place. The barge time to Vancouver is approximately 11 hours where there is a strong demand for declining aggregate resources.

Call Jamie or Jason for more details.

The area is a mecca for recreational activity. Because the property is situated on the ocean, one can enjoy all the benefits the ocean has to offer. What makes this property unique is the ability to drive right from the property on forest service roads into the coastal mountain range and access numerous freshwater lakes, hiking trails, glaciers and river systems.

Some activities include boating, fishing, kayaking, scuba diving, site seeing, hiking and swimming in an area characterised as one of BC’s popular outdoor playgrounds. There are endless amounts of shoreline to explore but one does not have to venture any further than your own dock to catch your daily limit in prawns, crabs, oysters and clams.
