In the project construction area, there are a large number of rich species such as sea cucumbers, moray eels, sea urchins, conch shells, sea crabs and corals in the natural marine ecosystem. In order to protect marine life, the project department has cooperated with relevant departments of fishery, marine resources, business and environment of Nauru and the proprietor Nauru Maritime and Port Authority to carry out migration protection for marine life in the construction area. Finally, the project has successfully relocated the marine life in the area affected by the construction to a new home 50 meters away from the construction area.

The construction in the Aiwo Wharf Upgrading Project in Nauru includes a 20,000-ton berth, a dredging work of about 150,000 cubic meters, roads and container yards of about 45,000 square meters, a building area of about 2,400 square meters, renovation of desalination facilities and other ancillary works. After completion , it will greatly increase the cargo throughput of the Aiwo Wharf and promote the trade between Nauru and neighboring countries.
