Wilmot Pipeline
The finial connection of the 24 inch "pig launcher" was completed late yesterday and the crew was preparing both "pig launchers" for hydrostatic testing. A 24 inch foam "pig" sits on top of the launcher.
A pourable fill (a type of concrete) support was added to the pipeline near the "pig launcher".
A temporary water line connects the two "pig launchers" so water can be pumped from the 20 inch pipeline to fill the 24 inch pipeline for the hydrostatic test.
Transferring water between the two "pig launchers".
Wesauking Pipeline
On the Wesauking Pipeline the crew started the pipeline reclamation by grading the topsoil back over the pipeline right-of-way.
The recent rain made the topsoil a little "sticky" to work but a couple of sunny days and it will dry out.
The topsoil graded back to the original contour.
Timber mating along the pipeline right-of-way is removed to allow for re-grading.
