PHEW! What a scorcher. Quite a change in the weather in the last week. At the lagoon, several new views have opened up as a result of the North embankment desecration.
Looking towards the housing development in Callaghan Drive and The Steel works- note the slick of embankment soil junk that has collected alongside the flocculation contraption.
Wot no trees
Looking East, you can see where this is going.

Of course this is all for future “site investigation” purposes. Will they find any white phosphorus now that this lot has been churned up to the extent it now has been- especially if it is conveniently shovelled under the surface and some new soil added over the top. Then the so called “samples” of these future investigations will sample shallow ground- not finding anything.
Over the weekend, the newly constructed causeway path was covered over with plastic blowing in the wind- perhaps to stop the handful of birds nesting? Now it’s removed, it forms the bridge over troubled water for the excavation crew to continue their work.
