Conversion of MH052 to an abstraction pumping chamber 3. Installation of abstraction pump and controls for transferring water to the irrigation storage tank 4. Irrigation storage tank This document should be read and understood together with the Groundwater drainage and irrigation demolition scope of works in preparation for reconstruction of the nursery site at Hyde Park (16th May 2016). This includes any modifications to his scope necessary owing to findings within the review stage of the demolition works or afterwards. NB. Deep channels and drains are sized 6, not 8 as indicated in the above previously issued demolition package. 1.2 Drawing Register The drawings listed in italics are issued with the demolition (Phase 1) package.

4 2.0 Works 2.1 Modification of works carried out during the demolition phase, including acting upon additional findings within the demolition phase in order to achieve the full design intent The full outcome of this part of the works is not yet known but is likely to include the following: Basement sump chamber to MH 082 A. See Dwg. No. 200.HND.06 Conversion of basement sump to gravity flow. To 2m stub of 225mm unperforated TwinWall pipe laid at approximately 17.75m, extend this pipe to location of MH082. The pipe is to be laid level or with a nominal fall. This will depend on exact levels encountered during the survey and review of the groundwater drainage system and thus is subject to change. NB: The intention is that all water that finds its way into the basement sump chamber, continues to do so, but by gravity runs towards the existing MH082 and thence to MH052 B. As an alternative to the route described above and shown on the drawing, a more direct route may be taken directly from the site of the basement sump chamber to the site of MH052, bypassing MH Works at MH082 A. MH082 (see Dwg. No. 200.HND.D.05 Inside MH082 & MH052 and Dwg. No. HND.200.D.01 Known Groundwater Chambers information only ) is known to convey water from MH051 to MH052. There is a connection between MH082 and the basement sump chamber. Its condition is dubious and there is an extensive vault / culvert beneath the top of MH082 which includes timber walling / shuttering etc.. It is proposed that this chamber be removed and a new one installed. B. The new chamber shall include a 600mm sump below the lowest invert. The lowest invert is anticipated to be the outgoing drain. However, this is not confirmed and the precise works in this area are subject to review. C. See plates 1 & 2 below Ref. 200.D2 The Royal Parks Groundwater drainage and irrigation provisional construction scope of 9

6 2.2 Conversion of MH052 to an abstraction pumping chamber A. MH052 (see Dwg. No. 200.HND.1 Known groundwater chambers - information only ) is the final (known) confluence of all groundwater drainage channels at the nursery site. The current invert, upon a main channel bend, is 17.31m. It is proposed that this MH052 be completely rebuilt. B. The chamber shall be constructed of DN1500 concrete rings or as otherwise proposed by the D&B contractor) with a closed sump of 2m below the lowest pipe invert level 2.3 Installation of abstraction pump and controls for transferring water to the irrigation storage tank A. The existing pump within the newly constructed basement sump chamber shall be relocated to this new abstraction chamber. See Dwg. No. 200.HND.D.07 Conversion of MH052 to abstraction chamber B. A power supply shall be available approximately as shown on Dwg. No. 200.HND.D.06 Conversion of basement sump to gravity flow. This will have been installed as part of the Phase 1 Demolition works and is shown also on Dwg. No. 200.HND.D.03 General basement sump chamber plan C. Between the abstraction chamber (MH052) and the irrigation storage tank shall be installed a new 90mm SDR100 black PE100 rising main at c. 1m depth. D. With the rising main shall be sited 2 No. 100mm smooth-bore flexiduct suitable for carrying pump start / stop signal components and for future unspecified uses 2.4 Irrigation storage tank A. Approximately as shown on Dwg. No. 200.HND.D.8 Provisional irrigation storage tank location shall be sited the irrigation storage tank. B. This shall be a durable glass-lined steel tank (or as approved) and hold a working capacity of 150m 3. C. The tank shall be completely above ground unless as otherwise agreed D. It shall be fitted with 2 No. DN90 stainless steel risers and 1 No. DN150 stainless steel riser for incoming water (potable, groundwater, borehole) plus all other connections for level control and indication E. It shall be fitted with 1No. DN100 low level tank outlet Ref. 200.D2 The Royal Parks Groundwater drainage and irrigation provisional construction scope of 9

7 3.0 Materials specification (guidance only) 3.1 Polyethylene pipe work PE pipe work shall be as follows: Black SDR17 or 11 as described PE100 Manufactured to EN Joints: 50mm 90mm electrofusion only 110mm (Lift pump) butt-welded and reamed sticks only 110mm electrofusion 160mm electrofusion Where compression fittings are used to connect to the pump set steelwork, Plasson, Philmac or other approved manufacturer shall be used. 3.2 Structured wall pipe (TwinWall) TwinWall pipe as detailed within the tender drawings and this specification shall be a structured wall, thermoplastic, twin-extrusion pipe manufactured from High Density Polyethylene or Polypropylene. This material specification shall also apply to the Rigi-duct. Ref. 200.D2 The Royal Parks Groundwater drainage and irrigation provisional construction scope of 9

No: 1 Irrigation Drainage Water Resources Reservoirs Shackerdale Farm, Car Colston, Nottinghamshire. NG13 8JB UK This drawing shows the installation of a new 225mm unperforated TwinWall pipe to connect to a length of existing TwinWall (to be installed as part of the Demolition package) and taken to MH082. This pipe is to be laid level or, if possible with a nominal fall, and these levels are to be determined and agreed on site. MH082 is to be completely reconstructed using DN1500 sealed concrete rings above whatever base is required to enable water to be received into the chamber from the basement sump chamber, from chamber MH051 and any from any other incoming chamber/pipe by gravity. The reconstructed MH082 is to be fitted with a sump of minimum 600mm below the lowest invert. Water will be garvity fed to chamber MH052 via existing or renewed pipe work as determined at Phase 1 (Demolition). MH052 is to be completely reconstructed using DN1500 sealed concrete rings. This is to include a complete reconstruction of the bed of the chamber and all incoming drain entries and exits. See Dwg. No. 200.HND.D.07. This will become the new abstraction chamber. Notes Blue arrows show approximate route of piped groundwater.
