Woodchip dumping

The port of Portland is Victoria's only deep water port. It is in Southwest Victoria and handles export of (amongst other things) grain, logs and a lot of woodchips. Exports include over 5million tonnes of forestry product annually. Current estimate of truck movements in the port is in excess of 230,000 each year.

There is also an occasional cruise ship in the port with bus tours which travel to Mt Gambier's blue lakes (a little over an hour away in South Australia), Grampians National park, Coonawarra wine region, and a World Heritage Listed Budj Bim Cultural landscape area.
