Opus Pond Drop Testing
The Opus Pond Drop Test (OPDT) gives a definitive answer – Do I need to fix or upgrade my pond or other parts of my effluent system? The OPDT is the only test available that meets Regional Council requirements and is an effective solution for monitoring pond level change.
We engage and consult with our clients about the individual pond and system required and the non-invasive pond drop mechanism is installed, calibrated and left on site for 48 hours. At the conclusion of measurement, data is downloaded and sent to a centralised analysis team to interpret. A comprehensive, easy to understand report identifying any issues and options is presented to you.
The process includes:
- Non-invasive testing
- Meets Dairy Effluent Warrant of Fitness criteria
- Suitable for concrete, synthetic, clay or unlined ponds
- Quality assured by a chartered professional engineer (CPEng)
- Nationwide testing, with a centralised management and reporting system
- Results presented as an easy to understand letter, that can be forwarded straight to Regional Council
