This project involved the demolition and disposal of an above ground concrete potable water reservoir (Harvey Tank), including electrical devices, piping and appurtenances, and construction of a new 2.33 ML above-ground glass-fused bolted-steel reservoir to store potable water. The reservoir includes a geodesic aluminum dome roof.

Challenges

• Retrofitting a decommissioned above ground concrete tank (Oceanview) to use during demo and construction of the new water tank.
• Work needed to be planned appropriately to ensure low water storage periods did not coincide with high fire risk periods.
