Pond work nears end


Excavation of sand from the floor of a City Council oxidation pond in east Christchurch is about complete. All planned work on the pond area, part of upgrades to the city’s Wastewater Treatment Plant, should be completed by the end of the month. New bank construction is the last part of this job, which is running ahead of schedule.

People in the area have been concerned about dust blowing from the site and to keep this down about 80 per cent of the pond now has water in it. A sand stockpile nearby has been covered with topsoil. Parts of it will be used soon for development in another part of the city.
