PROPERTY OVERVIEW
Port Bienville Site 04 offers 35 acres of cleared heavy-industrial property within the Port Bienville Industrial Park. An active rail spur runs through the site, and Dock B is immediately adjacent, creating a strong location for industrial users that rely on rail and marine transportation.
Boundary, topographic, and geotechnical work has been completed, and no wetlands have been identified. Site layout will need to account for existing rail and utility corridors crossing the property.

Active Rail Spur
-
20-foot utility easement
-
Ethylene glycol pipeline easement
A 20-foot utility and waterline easement is documented by survey, and an ethylene glycol pipeline alignment also crosses the property.
The exact legal width of the glycol easement should be confirmed during project-specific due diligence.
