Other design aspects see Chapter

As a result of hydraulic filling and/or precipitation, an elevated water table is often observed in reclaimed areas, which could affect the accessibility, stability and settlement behaviour. Additional measures to lower the water table (to a pre-defined level) may then be required and must as such be specified  

The Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining water courses including land and or road drainage within the Site in effective working condition at all times. 

The Contractor shall carry out operations in filling and discharge of water from the fill area without disturbance to existing works and structures and in accordance with methods approved by the 

The Contractor shall accurately locate and mark with buoys the existing submarine cables, pipelines, etc. across the reclamation and borrow areas in the working area. 

No dredging works shall be carried out in vicinity of the existing structures until the Contractor has submitted a method statement to the satisfaction of the Client and ensure that the stability of the structures will not be affected.
