| Project Summary: |
| |
| A Humegard™ gross pollutant trap has been installed in Hawera’s drainage system and is playing a key role in improving the quality of stormwater that discharges from an existing public stormwater drain into open watercourse that flows through private property. |
| |
| Council’s main objective was to stop litter and coarse sediments being deposited in the affected resident’s back yard thereby improving aesthetic value of the watercourse as well as removing harmful pollutants that affect the environment of local fauna. |
| |
| The HG15L model is one of four minor gross pollutant trap units within the Humegard™ range that generally treat flows from pipe sizes between DN225 and DN525. The unit was manufactured at Humes’ Papakura manufacturing site where it was trial assembled prior to being delivered to site in three sections – base section, top section and lid. Standard circular manhole risers were then utilised to provide access from finished ground level. |
