CLIENT: South Walker Creek
PROJECT: Dredging project
Scope:
We Mobilised our larger rose bud cutter suction dredge, an in line boost pump and pipe work. Tasked with removing 75,000.00m3 of coal fines and silts. Removal of the fines was to provide additional water storage capacity in the dam.
Challenges:
From the beginning we were aware there was a site data communications cable located in the dam, it was however unclear to actual location. As a result we reduced our dredging footprint, to allow a safe margin of the suspected location of the cable. As a result of this we can thankfully say the cable is intact.
Achievements:
From the beginning we were aware there was a site data communications cable located in the dam, it was however unclear to actual location. partly washed our temporary structure away it was rebuilt and more substantial. We reduced our dredging footprint, to allow a safe margin of the suspected location of the cable. As a result of this we can thankfully say the cable is intact.
