challenge they have a problem.” And Fun-
dy is rather good at offering solutions.
NOTEWORTHY OPERATIONS
AND SUBSTANTIAL
CONTRIBUTIONS
The last three decades have filled Fundy’s
project portfolio with noteworthy opera-
tions and substantial contributions to the
Atlantic Canada and New England area.
The firm has been involved in everything
from long-term environmental monitoring
to forensic investigations.
Despite having fingers in various pies, Fun-
dy does have a favourite: geotechnical en-
gineering, a sub-discipline that deals with
structures that are either constructed or
supported by soil or rock, such as slopes
and wharves. Digby, Nova Scotia is highly
dependent on the harbour, which provides
a link to the sea-based fishery and aquacul-
ture operations. In 2007, Fundy Engineering
conducted a comprehensive geotechnical
investigation and wharf condition survey
to document the existing conditions of the
wharf infrastructure. Fundy provided the
Digby Harbour Authority with design rec-
ommendations based on the needs of the
user and community with respect to the
harbour. Recommendations included new
floats, gangways and new lighting.
