Hi All.

Time for an update on the Great Ayton STW Storm Tank:

Our specialist sub-contractor is progressing the shaft for the new storm tank. The cutting ring and first normal ring are in place and the jacking collar complete. The jacks are in place, and we should start sinking the shaft tomorrow when the long reach excavator arrives. The collar and the jacks give us control of the shaft as it sinks, guiding it and allowing us to keep it plumb.

We are also continuing various trial holes on site looking at the possibility of a streamlined solution. The potential solution is difficult and may prove to be unworkable, but the potential benefits mean we need to at least examine the possibility.

Thanks for taking the time to read this update.

Dave Eden, Project Manager
