Camp Facilities

Camp Facilities for temporary workforce operations in remote and sometimes harsh environmental locations are no problem for Temporary 123. These missions can present unique challenges in providing utilities. It’s rare that systems like high-line power, culinary water, or city sewer systems are available. In fact, it’s quite the opposite that’s true. We often find ourselves drilling test holes to determine the best locations for water wells, storage tanks, etc. Or, in the case of sewers, we have to test the percolation rates of the native soil to determine whether an underground leach field, mobile treatment plant, or evaporation pond is better suited for the project. Finally, we often run our own power, overhead or underground, while utilizing generators on the front end to service electricity needs on a temporary basis. 

These processes take time and cooperation from local and state governments, permitting entities, and you, the client. But they are essential to review at the beginning of the project because these costs can equal 15-20% of the total budget for a project. However, if done right, they will be an ongoing asset to the infrastructure of the local community for years to come. Temporary 123 has learned a lot along the way and looks forward to sharing those tricks of the trade with you to avoid pitfalls in putting in utilities and then incorporating them into the base camp design and emergency response services project.

Temporary 123 will manage, monitor, and track, budgets, and schedules, with complete turnkey service, permitting, rentals, security, and hospitality. We also offer military and deployable assets. 

Part of the process of designing the utilities is determining the exact connection points and capacities before the project has even begun. In doing this pre-planning we have realized that costly rework can be avoided. Imaging, mapping out, and designing as much as possible what these systems will look like before installation, will save valuable time and resources. 

Power

Reliable power and internet connectivity are crucial to camp facilities. Your base camp employees expect it, and we are happy to accommodate them. Temporary 123 will determine the proper power source, and satellite source, handle all the permits associated, and oversee connectivity. We will also provide a backup generator as a secondary power source if a need should ever arise. 

Water

Temporary 123 works with our clients to determine the best water source (municipal lines, wells, natural springs, etc.) to provide for their camp facilities. We secure all necessary permits, and engineer connections, and will manage the installation. For continual security, Temporary 123 monitors water quality and maintains piping systems to avoid complications associated with freezing, leaching, etc. Our systems help to conserve water, which reduces the cost for clients and maintains the least impact on the environment.

Having enough water capacity for camp facilities to ensure proper water storage to combat or fight fires is also something we would look at and work out together. Certain jurisdictions have different requirements and together we’d work out the best solution.
