Question:
Dear Gympie Regional Council,

We appreciate that a considerable level of detail has been provided for the design of the dewatering area concrete structure. However, can council please confirm that:

1) The new WAS and Supernatant lines, as well as the connection of these lines to the geobag is part of the design scope;

2) That the WAS and supernatant line provide sludge flow via gravity to the geobags (or is it pumped to this location?); and

3) That WAS and supernatant quality will be provided upon contract award to inform hydraulic calculations.

We look forward to your reply and supporting this important project for Gympie Regional Council.
