WORKS UPDATE (26th December 2015)

PROJECT WORKS

Would you believe that a site visit yesterday was somewhat spoiled by persistent steady rain. It continued most of the day and into the evening to make for a somewhat soggy but nevertheless, very enjoyable Christmas Day.

Ban Souy Noi

• Weir and headworks tank have been completed and the main supply line has been installed.
• Storage tank walls have been poured and formwork will be stripped next week. Lid will be poured next week.
• Two of the six water points are complete and the remaining four bases have been poured.
• An additional 100m x 40mm pipe is required to direct the overflow water from the storage tank away from the centre of the Village to a nearby water course.
• The Project will be close to completion by the end of next week

Ban Vangkham

• The problem we had with the highest water point which lost flow/pressure when lower WP’s were opened, was eventually solved by providing an additional 300m of pipe to provide a single dedicated supply from the tank.
• The Health and Training programme is planned for mid January.

Ban Chomesy Souy

• An initial payment from RI has been promised in the next few days, with the balance to be paid by end of January.
• Work will commence in the first week of 2016!

Ban Houad

• A return visit is scheduled for early January to sign the Village Contract.
• The BOM and schematic drawings have been prepared and reviewed by BB. They will be forwarded to PDPHD next week
