Supporting Technical Assessments

EGL Ref: 8983 23 June 2022 Page 38 WAI-985-000-REP-LC-0004_Rev0.docx This report shall only be read in its entirety. The NZDSG recommend that the Designer has full-time representation for High PIC dams and that the on-site representative should have experience in the design and construction of High PIC dams. This is to ensure the works are undertaken in accordance with the design intent and to determine whether any design changes are necessary because of the actual site conditions. Construction of the Storage 3 does warrant full time Designer representation during parts of the foundation and initial embankment works. Reduced representation may be appropriate during certain (later) stages of construction where dam safety related risks are low. An earthworks specification and schedule of monitoring required will be prepared for detailed design. Monitoring during construction and operation will be undertaken by the Designer and OGNZL.
