BC Ferries is investing locally to recycle the wo retired 'Bowen Queen' and 'Powell River Queen' to support BC jobs and build marine recycling capacity in British Columbia. The work will be carried out by Marine Recycling Corporation (MRC) at Esquimalt Graving Dock, a federally managed facility, and then completed at a recycling facility in Surrey. Up to 25 employees from Point Hope Maritime in Victoria will work on the project at their second location at the Esquimalt Graving dock. Additional vessels, including the retired 'Mayne Queen' and the 'Quadra Queen II', which is nearing the end of its service life, are expected to require dismantling in the coming years.
