The Marine Environmental and Hazards Response (MEHR) Program of the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG), Central Region, completed an initial risk assessment of a vessel of concern located in Chevery, QC on September 16th 2020. Following this visit, it was determined that the barge posed a danger to the health, safety, and welfare of the public. In March 2025, the CCG obtained an environmental assessment that described the site conditions, potential issues, and mitigation recommendations for disposal of the wreck. It was decided to proceed with the removal of the wreck in order to eliminate the issues and hazards identified in the 2020 site assessment and the 2025 environmental assessment.
