Balranald substation yard requires remediation by regrading the site and stabilising the soil near surface within the footprint of the substation and the southern batter with a gypsum binder.  The failure of the earthworks at Balranald substation is due to a combination of the sodic (dispersive) nature of the soils on site and poor site drainage.
