Pouring the platform deck.
How it works
From the lake
to the shore.
The platform feeds a causeway carrying the pipeline back to land, where a pre-sedimentation tank takes the first pass at the raw water before it travels on.
-
01
Floating intake
A platform moored on the lake that rises and falls with the water, so it keeps drawing at any level.
-
02
Causeway pipeline
Raw water crosses to land through a pipeline carried the length of the causeway.
-
03
Pre-sedimentation
Ashore, the heaviest solids settle out in a first treatment stage before the water travels on.
Recognition

in the making.
