Bangkok: Governor Chadchart reveals that a 4th layer of support will be added for safety when going down to retrieve the workers' bodies. Governor Chadchart revealed that the recovery of the body of a worker who fell into a 19-meter-deep pile hole is being carried out by adding a 4th layer of support to ensure safety for workers who are going down to recover the body. In the case of the oil tanker overturning at Rat Phatthana Intersection, the problem of both the road surface and the drain pipes that were contaminated with oil has been resolved.
According to Thai News Agency, Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt revealed the progress in recovering the body of Mr. Sarawut Chanthason, or Mr. Dao, 33, a worker from Sisaket who fell into a 19-meter-deep pile hole in the construction area of the Orange Line electric train project, Bang Khun Non-Thailand Cultural Center section. He stated that sheet piles are currently being built to support the 4th level, which is 9.5 meters deep from the road surface, to prevent the soil below from overflowing into the work area and to prevent any danger to workers.
As for finding the deceased, it is not possible to see with the eyes. It was only felt by sticking a stick into the mud. And using smell to prove that the body is still at the level of 11.5 meters.
It was confirmed that the rain that fell did not have much effect, but what was an obstacle was the condition of the soil that flowed down to replace the hole, so another hole was drilled to let the soil flow out before using a water pump to suck the liquid up.
However, it has been planned that if the body can be recovered, it will be sent to the police for examination, including legal proceedings, which is not as complicated as the case of the Office of the Auditor General building collapse.
In the case of the oil tanker at the Rat Phatthana intersection cutting across Suk Sawat Road, Bang Pakok Subdistrict, Rat Burana District last night, which caused oil to leak out, sandbags were recently used to block the drainpipe to prevent oil-contaminated water from flowing elsewhere, and the water was pumped up for treatment. Sand was poured down on the road to prevent slipperiness. The latest update is that the vehicle has been recovered and the gasoline from the overturned vehicle has been transferred to another vehicle to receive it. In addition, the responsible company will bring a truck to suck up the oil on the ground and drainpipe, which may have an impact on the environment, out of the pipe to treat the water. This morning, approximately 100 people in the vicinity were evacuated for safety reasons. Overall, it is believed that there is nothing to worry about and everything is under control and resolved.
