The Proposed Project

This project consists of work execution, labour, materials/supplies and tools needed for the replacement of a fence and gates on the southwest, west and northwest perimeter of the base and installation of a fence around a sea container storage area.

The work includes but is not limited to the replacement of about 5000 meters of fence, connection to the actual fence and replacement of gates. The posts concrete bases will be poured on site. In the event of a job obstruction by plants or trees, the obstructions will be eliminated (land clearing, assart, grubbing, deforestation).The concrete waste and old fence parts etc. will be disposed off site. The installation of a new fence around a 7500 m2 parking area will ensure protection of the area. No soil will be moved or disposed off site.
