ICE CONSTRUCTION - MOBILE PUMP WANIGAN FOR CONFINED FLOODING
Advancements in flooding techniques for leveling and thickening natural ice areas for improved Arctic Ocean operations resulted in the development of a mobile pump wanigan for confined flooding. An extra-wide NCEL camp wanigan was outfitted for confining and distributing the flood water, for drying...
