Abstract

The invention relates to covers for wastewater treatment lagoons, which are typically covered by expansive stretches of sheet-form, high density polyethylene (HDPE). The invention more particularly relates to improvements in attaching HDPE patches at distributed locations thereon, which patches provide locally increased thickness to the cover in service as seats for attachment of further attachments to the cover, such as for example and without limitation HDPE straps for retention of HDPE grout-filled ballast pipes, and so on.
