Update by Dave Eden
Morning All.
Time for another Hexham STW Refurbishment update:
The seeding of the new filter beds is continuing well, with biological sampling results suggesting they will be mature well ahead of schedule.
We are continuing civils works on the inlet works area, currently installing all the remaining ducting and pipework ahead of constructing the 3 remaining base slabs.
We have commenced the works to core into the existing balancing tank with the wall plate now bolted to the wall of the chamber ready for pressure testing before the valve is installed ready for coring to begin. This core will allow us to divert the flows into the new inlet works once they are complete.
The refurbishment of the existing Detritor and grit rake is nearing completion. The equipment is all back in place and electrically connected with a view to bring it back into operation this week.
That's all for now, but as always, there's more information in the photos.
