batching plants, fabrication yards, kiln and mill areas,
worker housing, etc. – were arranged for adequate power

Construction water was arranged from the existing
facility. Water recycled from the DCBL treatment plant was

these major structures. In addition, one mobile tower crane
and two cranes were mobilized.
