the chambers and main drains,
and has to be jetted out before
the project is completed. with
MuckStopper in place as a barrier,
the chambers and drains will remain
silt-free for the entire project.
Justin Evans, project manager
for the site, also commented
that many drain systems today
incorporate a hydro brake system
that slows stormwater before
it reaches main streams and
waterworks. Having MuckStopper
in place, Justin observed, will also
prevent silt from blocking the
hydro brakes and getting

into main waterways, with clear
environmental benefits.
MuckStopper also drew the
attention of Taylor Wimpey
directors on a visit to the site, who
were impressed by its capabilities
and potential.
On completion of the project,
Justin and his team will simply
remove the ironwork from the
manholes and road gullies,
extract the MuckStoppers and
replace the ironwork before the
asphalt crews complete the road
surface, leaving the MuckStoppers
to be redeployed to another
construction site.
