Final Path for Penstock Planned

20071203-587.jpgExtending the penstock through the rough terrain near the dams requires finding the optimal path.

Norwegian Project Consultant Jan Høiseth just completed a visit to the site, where he reassessed the route the penstock will follow the final stretch up to the ponds. In close cooperation with Construction Manager Vasco Pinto and Project Adviser Alf Adeler, he measured angles and calculated the path to follow. This allows the workers to continue digging through the last hills, and we still hope the project may be completed first quarter next year, in spite of the coming rains…
