TCU suspende contrato de dragagem para aprofundamento do canal do Porto de Santos

The Brazilian Tribunal de Contas da União (TCU) suspended the dredging contract for the Santos Port canal deepening project due to a legal dispute in the bidding process. The contract, valued at R$ 617.9 million, was awarded to Jan de Nul after disqualification of a cheaper bid; a federal inquiry is investigating possible administrative misconduct.
