On June 22, Graham assisted Whissell Contracting with repairing one of the five hotspots involved with the ongoing emergency force water main repairs for the City of Calgary.

On Wednesday, June 19, Graham received the support request. Less than 12 hours later, on Thursday morning, a crew and formworks were on-site to pour this 20 m³ block. Following some challenges with obtaining rebar, the crew worked through the night on Friday to prepare it for a pour on Saturday afternoon. The team collaborated and executed this work safely without incidents.
Additional Support Work
In addition to the work on Calgary’s force water main repairs, the City of Calgary requested Graham’s assistance with borgata casino bonus codeupgrading two pump stations to support Calgary’s water distribution system.

This will enable reservoirs to feed their distribution areas via gravity and ensure an adequate supply and backup for emergencies. The crews completed this work at the first pump station within 48 hours of being Borgata online SportsbookContacted.
Work on the pump stations also led to additional tasks at the main Bearspaw water treatment plant, where crews will add a new pressure-reducing valve later this week to help manage pressure Borgata online Sportsbooksurges in the water distribution system due to recent changes.
