Update by Gabrielle Ward

Hello,

Here is an update on whats been going on, on site over the last month.

We continue to make good progress on site, safely and to programme. Work has commenced to construct the infrastructure associated with the mobile HSAF (hybrid submerged aerated filter) which includes a new HSAF pumping station well and new ducting. The new mixing system has also been installed in the new storm tank.   The new MCC (Motor control center) and ICA (Instrumentation, Control and Automation) panels have now been powered up and the transfer of equipment from the old panels to the new panels will be commencing shortly and is expected to take up to six weeks to complete. 

If you have any questions you would like answering, please feel free to leave a comment below. 

Have a great weekend!
