STUDIES FOR THE GRAIN TERMINAL AT THE PORT OF SANTOS ARE FILED WITH TCU

The studies for the leasing of the STS 11 terminal on the right bank of the Port of Santos, have been filed with the Federal Court of Accounts (TCU). The terminal will be destined for the movement of solid vegetable bulk and should be auctioned in the 1st quarter of 2022. “With this step, the Port of Santos maintains its expectation of holding 11 public auctions in four years”, assesses the president of the Santos Port Authority (SPA), Fernando Biral. STS 11, in the neighborhood of Paquetá (Santos), will be leased to a terminal for bulk vegetable solids: soybeans, soy bran, corn, sugar, and wheat unloading. Investments of around R$ 693 million are planned in a 114,700-m2 area, with that capacity to store 397,000 tons. After approval by the TCU, the notice with the public auction rules will be published by ANTAQ (the national waterway transport agency). The lease term is for 25 years.
