John P O'Brien designed new bin cover lids that were constructed using the engineering department's design. The lids were fitted with hydraulic rams to open and close, and a hydraulic pump was purchased and installed to operate the lids. An existing sprinkler system for dust suppression was also updated, incorporating rotating sprinklers in each corner controlled by the original timer. The project involved design, management, electrical, hydraulic, welding, painting and crane operation teams led by John P O'Brien.
