Adco North Gjoa Haven Team
   
In 2004/2005 ADCO NORTH successfully completed the installation of a new Intake Water System at Gjoa Haven. Part of this project involved the fabrication of two (2) Re-heat Buildings as well as the Intake Pump House for the Hamlet. The buildings were pre-fabricated in our ADCO fabrication facility in Edmonton and then shipped to Hay River where they were ultimately barged to the Hamlet. Carrying out the prefabrication of the buildings for this project in the ADCO fabrication shop in Edmonton dramatically reduced the installation and set up time at the site. This project also entailed the installation of a 12” diameter (HDPE) High Density Polyethylene Pipe pipeline, which ran from the facility out to the lake bottom on Swan Lake. The pipe was sunk and then anchored to the bottom of the lake via concrete anchors, and the land portion of the pipeline involved trenching and backfilling to complete the install. ADCO is extremely proud of the fact that 100% of the manpower used on this project was recruited from Gjoa Haven and they were provided the specialized training required, by our Project Manager, Ken Nash.
