Afternoon All,
WINEP Great Ayton STW Storm Capacity is progressing so it’s time for another update:
The Interceptor Chamber Works are continuing, we are now almost ready to pour the walls. Following that including, stripping the shutters, pulling the ground supports and back filling, the chamber will go on hold until we are ready to turn the flows into the new storm tank/shaft.
Following some testing and minor alterations, the dewatering solution is performing, which has allowed us to restart the shaft works. We emptied the shaft of water and dug out below the cutting edge, which has allowed us to inspect the shaft for damage which may have been caused by unexpectedly large stones. The damage seems to be superficial so we have recommenced sinking the shaft, though the work may still be slower than hoped due to the stone.
The major design items are now very close to completion and most of the critical materials and permanent equipment is either on site or in production off site.
The main exception to this is the fabricated steelwork such as handrailing and open mesh platforms, but we do not expect this to cause us any issues.
Thanks for taking the time to read.
Dave Eden PM.
