The government of Newfoundland and Labrador is advancing towards the construction of a new dry dock and marine industrial facility, with a Request for Proposals issued by the Oil and Gas Corporation of Newfoundland and Labrador on Friday. This development takes place at the Bull Arm Fabrication Site, a known location for significant industrial operations in the region.
