BINGO wishes to inform local residents adjacent to our Eastern Creek Recycling Ecology Park, that maintenance works related to replacement of pump for the leachate riser will take place on Thursday 24 August from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
What work will be taking place?
The sequence of tasks that we will undertake during the pump replacement are the following:
1) Opening the riser lid and extracting sump pump.
2) Placing the new sump pump and closing the lid.
3) Reconnecting all designed infrastructure like leachate and gas extraction pipes.
4) Using cranes to assist with the above works.
What is BINGO doing to prevent odour during the works?
The two permanent flares will continue to operate during the works to mitigate any odour produced from the landfill. Additionally, gas collection will be active at the riser area during these works.
To further mitigate any potential for odour, harmless oxidising solution will be applied.
Why are the works needed?
The maintenance works is necessary to replace a damaged pump and manage water on site successfully over the coming months.
