Owls Hall Environmental assisted with and provided the design and installation of the onsite reticulation drainage systems to the Balfour Beatty’s main and satellite compounds which accommodated 150 staff, up to 450 works personnel and 100 caravans.
The works involved installation of separators, pump stations, treatment plant and temporary storage, UV and alarm systems, drainage and ducting. We also managed the interface with the Environment Agency and Anglian Water which included the obtaining of all licenses for connections and discharges.

The programme was challenging in respect of timescales and had to be carried out during a very wet winter. Close co-operation and interface with the buildings and earthworks contractor on the original design had to be developed to incorporate concrete and foam mix plants.
