I would suggest perhaps using a bentonite waterstop around the perimeter of the patch plus patch material containing hydraulic cement plus approriate reinforcement and dowels and adequate laps with existing reinforcement.

The basins are being used to store water for emergency use. The basins are going to be converted to treat municipal waste treatment effluent to allow use in cooling towers. The last I heard they will use the same lining.

Standard concrete.
I'm leaning towards using the bentonite. I'm concerned about the ability to install the product on the uneven chipped concrete surface. Any experience with this?
Does anybody know the useful life of bentonite? Thanks again!!!
