Nova Scotia Business Inc. has signed a contract, effective July 1, with the Halifax Port Authority to assume management responsibilities of the Sheet Harbour Marine Terminal. The 10-year agreement is performance-based with an option to renew.

The Halifax Port Authority will manage and operate the port under an agreement that includes performance goals. It will provide multiple, competitive stevedoring companies an opportunity to use the terminal.

The port is in Sheet Harbour on the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia and is well suited for marine and resource-based industry, manufacturing and being an intermediate port for ships on their way to another destination. Companies have already established processing and shipping facilities at the port as a competitive alternative to other locations.
