Construction is now complete, and the project is in the close-out phase: Field Reviews and the Schedule C-B from the professionals of record are being compiled for submission to the Building Department, and a final inspection by the building inspector is being arranged to formally close the permit.

The Flush Intake Project is an operational improvement to the Cove Bay Water System that enables flushing of the supply water line feeding the CUF treatment system, improving the Municipality’s ability to maintain the raw water intake and manage the quality of water entering the plant.

The project proceeded smoothly through permitting and procurement, with the building permit (Permit #20260090) obtained and all materials — including the 200mm HDPE pipe, couplings, and fittings — delivered to site in advance of construction.
