Re: Converse Bay Access Update PICS TODAY

It's hard to say whether their cofferdam is working sufficiently to allow complete dewatering for concrete work. Can't tell if the large blue pump is working. It looks like a stretch for the super sack bag dam. I know from personal experience that they don't work very well. I don't think the pump i...
