The 3 new storage wells constructed out of concrete rings were put into operation today.
Two of the wells are 4.2m (13') deep and since inlet is 1.6m deep, their effective water storage depth is 2.6m. The 3rd well was therefore created to be a little deeper - 5.2m. The total storage capacity of the wells is 10,300 liters. Not quite enough so the original soak pit is going to be cleaned up and also added to storage.
A GI pipe (so that the workers on the soakpit do not keep breaking the plastic pipes) was connected to the pump but with so many bends that it is more than the pump can handle.
So the motor is being moved closer with a shorter simpler (one round bend) connection.
