The Saskay Soil Transfer Facility (SSTF) is located at Coquitlam Indian Reserve 2. The facility operates as a soil testing and transfer station, which previously provided clean structural materials for use as fill at the adjacent fill site. At the end of June 2020 the fill operations concluded. The SSTF continues to receive soils for testing and transfer to appropriate offsite facilities, including non-hazardous fill materials exceeding the commercial criteria, and clean structural and nonstructural materials. It is Milestone’s understanding that Kwikwetlem first nation has approved an additional 400,000 m3 area to be filled, allowing for onsite fill operations to resume.

Saskay Earth Exchange (SEE)

In partnership with the Kwikwetlem First Nation, the Saskay Earth Exchange transfer station offers extensive disposal options including a state-of-the-art hydrovac disposal facility. The facility has been built with customer efficiency in mind, boasting two 80-foot scales with available E-Ticketing giving clients real time insight on project progress. The transfer station is centrally located in Port Coquitlam within 10 min drive time of the Trans Canada highway allowing clients to efficiently plan for projects. This is further enhanced by on-site gravel sales giving clients the opportunity to back haul gravels when needed, eliminating the need for trucks to visit multiple sites. The result being less trucks on the road for less time and a smaller carbon footprint.
