Burchills have been engaged by Palm Lake Works to complete the design for the internal earthworks, stormwater drainage, stormwater treatment, water reticulation, gravity sewer reticulation, internal sewer pump stations, regional sewer pump station, sewer rising mains and roadworks.

The project is an over 50’s lifestyle village that provides 290 lots and recreational facilities located in Forster, NSW. This development has a manmade waterway called Dunns Creek travering the site. As part of the development the waterway was required to be realigned. Mid Coast Council are also completing upstream works which directs the waterway to the new realigned location. Liaison with Council has been critical in delivering the creek realignment portion of the project. Other major challenges included removal of Asbestos from existing uncontrolled fill, and dealing with a perched water table caused from higher than usual rainfall post tender but preconstruction.
