Our irrigation contractor installed the main line of the irrigation on #3 today, and boy did they get a lot of work done in 1 day! This main line is an 8 inch pipe that supplies all the water from the pump house on #3 to holes #4, #5, #6, and #7. Originally the pipe ran through the middle of the pond, and was in a very bad area for silt collection and the possibility of being damaged in the open body of water. It was decided during the planning of the project to move the pipe under the bridges and free it from any casualties that could occur in the middle of the water. The pipe used is an HDPE pipe, which is bendable even at the large size of 8 inches. This was no small task, but our contractor On Course Irrigation made it look easy. Check out the pictures of how it all works............
Notice the man on the right side of the picture in the ditch. This is where we attached the new pipe to the existing main line pipe in the ground. We attached the other end behind #3 green!
This is our mechanic Danny welding braces on the bridge
As you can tell #3 fairway took the final blow of destruction today as it is now completely messed up. Never Fear, as we will restore the fairway to better than it was before we started the project!
