8 Mid – Week Possessions

All Mid-Week possessions are created in PACT (based on the Mid- Week possession program), and the PACT system used to manage the possessions. For the Central District, the Possession Support Officers (PSO) will enter their regular nightly scopes into PACT, and only additional (non-regular) work groups will enter their own scopes.
Mid-Week possessions are set up at least 2 weeks prior to possession where possible. Other district PSO’s are to hold regular planning meetings with NMD and MW staff approximately 20 weeks prior to possession and scopes are to be entered into PACT by the relevant workgroup. In the lead up to the possession, minimum 2 weeks prior, the PSO is to prepare the possession documentation (briefing notes, constraints registers) and resolve any potential clashes of worksites.
On a nightly basis, all PO’s are to report to the PPO’s office for a meeting to confirm work locations and possession briefing.
