Fife Council, Scotland, UK - Water Treatment Facility

leisure_centre_in_dunfermline

Together with our construction partner, Barr and Wray, VBTM designed and installed a new water treatment facility supplying drinking water to the Carnegie Leisure Centre in Dunfermline, Scotland. We assessed the alternative borehole water supply and surrounding catchment, introduced groundwater protection measures to minimise any risk from Cryptosporidium, installed supply pipework, chemical tanks and monitoring and control instrumentation, and commissioned the new facility. Planning constraints and building space restrictions presented significant challenges. It was necessary to undertake floor reinforcement, and provide additional health and safety control measures to minimise any risks to personnel operating the new facility and to the public using the Centre.
