This is a 22,000 yard holding pond. It will hold 2 million gallons of water and will feed a fire supression system for a acetylene and propane gas manufacturing plant. There will be a rubber liner installed since we are in sand and gravel. Also, there will be a pump with a 12" D.I. line feeding the sprinkler system. There is a 30,000 gal tank under the floor in the building with a 36" HDPE return line. I am on the Kobelco 200 sloping the banks. Man, I wish I had our swinger attachment. The company wanted the pond to be wavy, just like a golf course, lucky me. The main hoe is a Volvo EC 460 with a 4yd bucket and the trucks are a Volvo A30 and a Terex 2766C.
More pics....... Can anyone tell me what the machine is above my hoe, near the trees in the last pic. Also, can anyone notice what is wrong with it ??
Nice photos man. is it a burnt out log loader?
a motorgrader on its side?
963?
This job is taking place near your old stomping grounds. It is right off Rt. 11 in Beach Haven. Right behind the carnival grounds. They are talking about putting the axe to the fireworks due to the plant.
beautiful work!!!
Still haven't found out what that is along the woods?
in the pit i work in we rented a 330 volvo with a 60 inch bucket it sucks for th work we do with it, it has no reach and when you get a full bucket it feels like it want to flip over
nice job....
It is my cousins D8K. What you see sticking up in the air is the cab tilted back. Something broke inside of the oil pump and they lost oil pressure. My uncle tore the motor out and is rebuilding it. $20,000 just for parts.
My first guess was some kind of dozer, looks like your almost done. Looks good, thats a lotta pond!
That k model was notorious for breaking the oil pump drive shaft.nice job piccs by the way.
looks like nice work guys.....like ya pics
