The latest phase of the project involved the upgrade of the pumping station found on the Southside of St Sampson’s harbour, as the deepest station in the utility’s portfolio, at a depth of 17m, significant station refurbishment works were required to ensure the station had greater performance against flooding from increased flows, improved maintainability and greater daily operational resilience against failure.
“We would like to take this opportunity to thank the public for their patience during these works, as well as all who have helped bring this project to reality, from our own staff, to contractors both on and off Island. We would also like to advise that although we continue to carry out improvements to our infrastructure to ensure effective drainage for Guernsey, it is still important for islanders to |
remember that they are all able to help to keep the island’s sewers flowing and assist in the prevention of foul water flooding by only flushing the three Ps, pee, poo and (toilet) paper.” More information on the project can be found here: http://water.gg/st-sampson-wastewater- catchment-improvements Guidance on flushing can be found here: http://water.gg/letsbeclear |
