The Proposed Project

This project involves the execution of the work as well as the supply of labour, materials and tools necessary for the replacement of the current diesel fuel distribution station by a new distribution station located on the site of the new building B-384 (TEME). The work involves, but is not limited to, the installation of a new 40 000 liters diesel fuel tank as well as the necessary equipment for fuel distribution. The new distribution station will be fitted out on existing platform planned for this purpose. The old tank (25 000 liters) will be dismantled and the site decontaminated. The decontamination will require excavation work and the disposal of contaminated soils off-site.
