Wet Well and Irrigation

Many of you have seen the large excavation going on near the dock property.  This is the installation of the wet well for the irrigation pumps.  The wet well is where the pumps will draw the water from for irrigating the golf course. The well is tied into the intake pipe that we installed this past spring.  The next steps will be to pour a concrete floor and set the pumps in. Once the pumps are set we will build the pump house structure around them.

 The wet well site was excavated and de-watered before setting the concrete well.

 Once the well was set, the intake pipe was tied into the well.

 Pre-formed concrete sections were stacked and sealed to get the proper depth for the well.

The area was backfilled and compacted around the well.

 

Installation of the mainline pipe on the golf course is ongoing.  Today, we should be finished with number 18.  Mainline still needs to be installed on numbers 6,12, and 10.  Once the mainline is complete, we will begin hole by hole installation of laterals and heads.  Our plan is to start on holes nearest the lake and work in from there. 

 

Mainline is continuing up 18 toward the practice area.
