Pumping and Headworks - Christchurch City Council 
    
Pumping and Headworks
Case Study text
  • Leslie Lyall has been on assignment with the Christchurch City Council, working on a variety of complex capital works initiatives in both the Project and Programme Manager roles.
  • Leslie’s work on the CCC Pumping and Headworks initiative involves a programme of some forty active projects.
  • These projects included individual pump replacements as well as the installation of a new  pump station, with the removal of 14 underground fuel tanks and the replacing of above ground tanks at these sites.
     
    This programme of work was heavily reliant on good and positive communications with the residents of Christchurch. On occasion Leslie was accountable for a degree of community interfacing, especially when it came to resident concerns.
  • Leslie also completed an investigation and recommendation to the treatment of unstable land conditions that are currently threatening a major thoroughfare and historical site on the coastline of Christchurch.

    Leslie maintained tender processes, including scope, timing and budgeting for maintenance on Christchurch’s largest water reservoir, and the design and build of a new reservoir to meet the demands of a new Port Hills subdivision.
  • Other significant project work has been for the Christchurch Waste Water Treatment Plant. Leslie managed the supply and installation of an odour containment system and the repair of concrete surfaces of five grit tanks and associated channels as a result of H2S corrosion, involving tender preparation and contract administration. Another project also scoped and progressed the re-cladding and insulating of four digesters where the original cladding had started failing. This  also involved tender preparation, evaluation and contract awarding.
