Port Edward Harbour Authority

Port Edward Harbour Authority is the name under which four separate core fishing harbours operate: The Porpoise Harbour Marina Complex (Port Edward), Rushbrook Harbour, Cowbay Harbour and Fairview Harbour (Prince Rupert). PEHA offers a total of 5031.6 metres of moorage. Utilization can range from 1800 to 2300 vessels annually. Incorporated in February 1996 as a not-for-profit, PEHA leases facilities from Small Craft Harbours, a branch of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, with the mandate to operate and maintain the facilities as commercial fishing harbours. PEHA is an integral part of north coast life serving important economic, historic, and social roles in the community. BC’s North Coast has the most valuable fisheries in the province bringing in much of the catch in British Columbia.
