Western Mebon work site (APSARA-EFEO):

a. Create an experimental span with compacted soil approaching as much as possible the original layout at the time of the Khmer Empire, and another experimental span, on top of the compacted soil, including a symmetrical sole. Both must allow an in situ analysis of the distribution of the weight of the architectural structures and thus facilitate the requisite technical opinion;

b. Continue dismantling the enclosure wall and pavilions and obtain as quickly as possible authorization for the excavation site within the timeline set by APSARA;

c. Finally, particular ongoing attention must be given to controlling the water level in the baray, especially during floods, when the water level also depends on opening the sluicegates by the competent provincial departments.
