Deep Lake Water Cooling Project. $100,000,000. Over 15000m of 62” HDPE piping fused on spud barge floated and then submerged to a depth of 80m to draw dense cold 4 degree intake water for energy transfer to cool buildings downtown Toronto during summer months. Water drawn from Lake Ontario for the city’s potable water supply is now pumped from a deeper source, allowing its cooler and more stable temperature to be utilized for air conditioning before being added to the municipal water supply. The City of Toronto DLWC system employs three intake pipe lines, each five kilometers in length, laid on the bed of Lake Ontario. This $100 million system took over two and half years to complete, but now supplies an extensive list of downtown Toronto businesses and buildings with an alternative to conventional air cooling—one that is sustainable, cost-effective and efficient. Operator/Deck Hand: Heavy Marine construction including Dredging, Piping, Sheet pilling, Pile driving, Operating heavy equipment such as; Excavator, Loader, Bobcat and Tug Boat. Maintained; Canadian Argosy dredger with 2400 Lima crane, Derrick 1 barge with NW190 crane, Sandra Mary tug boat 1300Hp, RCL tug 600Hp, and all heavy equipment and fleet vehicles. Show less
