Scope:
Supply and installation of triple layer lining system, permanent ballast-
ing of the floor, animal egress and water level indicators to the following
associate ponds:
 200ML Associated Water Balance Pond
 340ML Permeate Pond
 4 x 350ML Brine Ponds A, B, C & D
Design and Construction:
The Flour design was a triple layer system consisting of triplanar drain-
age net covered by geosynthetic clay liner, followed by a 1.5mm HDPE
smooth geomembrane liner as the primary layer.
The primary liner floor of each pond was electrical tested to ASTM
D7007 Standard Practices for Electrical Methods for Locating Leaks in
Geomembranes Covered with Water or Earth Minerals, and the walls to
ASTM D7703 Standard Practices for Electrical Leak Location on Ex-
posed Geomembranes using the Water Lance System. The primary
liner was secured to spillways and sump structures using Fablock sup-
plied prefabricated by Fabtech, and precast into the concrete struc-
tures.
Fabtech was recognised by Clough Downer Joint Venture for diligence
regarding all aspects of safety on site.
