Cooling water intakes at Wylfa power station
Paper describes design and construction of cooling water intakes and sea shafts, situated on rocky sea bed off northern coast of Anglesey, which supply cooling water to 1200 Mw Wylfa nuclear power plant; each intake was designed as underwater structure conisting of anti-vortex canopy, coarse screen and dewatering cap; construction was done under water, using large precast concrete blockwork, set and fixed by divers; to provide permanent and construction access to intakes, tubular steel jetty and headworks structure was constructed from shore by overhand methods.
