Quest stages of Waste Management
1. Listen to the 'Burrows Mission Brief' Holotape
A Brotherhood of Steel Field Scribe was investigating robotic activity in an underground Pump Station near Harpers Ferry. I think I'll look into this.
When you get inside, you should come across a corpse in which you can find the holotape - Burrows Mission Brief.
2. Go to the Pump Station through The Burrows
Continue through the sewers and find the gate shown in the picture below.
2.1. Get past the Old Tunnel Gate
I need to go through the Old Tunnel to get to The Burrows, but the gate is locked. There's likely a key nearby.
Next to the gate, there is a note on the ground that will suggest where you can find the key.
2.1.1. Search for a key to the Old Tunnel Gate
I've found the key that unlocks the Old Tunnel Gate in The Burrows.
The Burrows Old Tunnel Key is in the "throne room".
Continue through the tunnel and find the metal door shown in the picture below.
2.2. Get past the Pump Station Door
Pump Station access is restricted by a maglock door. The Pump Station Access Terminal should be able to open it.
Activate the Pump Station Access Terminal.
2.2.1. Turn the Release Valve to restore Pump Station Door Control
The valve is located in the side corridor.
When you turn the valve, go back to the terminal and use it again > Open Door.
3. Investigate the Pump Station for the source of activity
The Brotherhood Intel was correct - the Pump Station is covered with robots. I should search the station for evidence of their origin.
If your hacking skill is high enough then you can use the terminal to open the door to the control room.
If you don't have the right skills, you need to go around killing several robots along the way.
Continue until you reach the pump room.
4. Defeat the Security Assaultron
I've found the source of activity - several robot fabricators and an Assaultron in the pump room. I should take care of the threat and defeat the Assaultron.
5. Defeat the remaining Security Robots
When you kill all security robots, the quest will end.
