  2. The excavation should be done perfect. The edges of the dam and surface should be levelled to ensure the liner touches the surface evenly.
  3. All rocks and roots should be removed to prevent damage to the material.
  4. Ensure the dam is well fenced and protected.
  5. Water needs to be stored immediately to protect the liner from sunlight. Should not be left without water for long time.
  6. During Welding ensure the HDPE dam liners overlap by 10-15 cm for formation of a secure connection.
