Overview
Our client is a leading food manufacturer in North Wales and their factory runs on a 24 hour shift pattern with a defined close down period for cleaning. The site is exceptionally busy with heavy delivery traffic throughout the day. The site is set in the countryside with a number of aquifers nearby heightened the sense of risk in the event of an incident.
Project Features
Our initial contact with the client was to source a suitable system which would enable them to manage any spills from site or the run off of firewater in the case of a major incident. It was also to assist in the control of their discharge as they had been visited by Welsh Water in respect to the outfalls and release from site.
The CheckValve system enables end users to seal the site within a period of less than 30 seconds via a remote wireless signal and isolate the site outfalls.
The company were discharging unintentionally and a previous drainage survey by another company had failed to highlight the issues.
Our drainage resurveyed the site and established that these was an area where the trailers were being washed externally that had caused the discharge. The assumption had been made that it was entering the ACO drainage and going to their treatment plant. However, the drainage plan was incorrect and as a result it was entering the surface water network and then local watercourses.
