Ocean technology centre goes to court over Dartmouth Cove infilling approval

Ocean technology centre goes to court over Dartmouth Cove infilling approval

A Nova Scotia ocean technology research and development hub is taking the minister of Transport Canada to court, after the department approved a construction firm’s proposal to dump 100,000 cubic metres of rock into Halifax harbour’s Dartmouth Cove.

In court documents filed this week, the Centre for Ocean Ventures & Entrepreneurship (COVE) warned some research operations could be forced to cease if the proposal to infill 2.7 hectares adjacent to the facility is allowed to go ahead.

The infilling project, which would include rock such as pyritic slate from construction sites around Halifax and would create land for future development, has been opposed by a neighbourhood group, the local councillor and the federal MP for the area.

Can Technology Build a Better Market for Fashion’s Unused Fabrics?

Over the past several years, there’s been a flourishing movement of brands from Reformation to Marine Serre buying up deadstock fabrics unused by others and turning them into collections and sales of their own.

But for all the brands that want to get their hands on these materials, sourcing them remains a mostly analog process that’s time-consuming and difficult to do at scale. Brands often need direct relationships with other designers or mills to get information about their overstock. Or they can turn to jobbers who specialise in selling surplus fabrics and odd lots. Some resort to more hands-on methods.
