As part of this, on Thursday night a crew will be entering the tunnel to perform a visual inspection.
As the tunnel is an active wastewater pipe, we’ll hold wastewater flows at the pump station while the inspection is carried out. We’re scheduling the entry at night when wastewater flows are at a minimum, thereby maximising the amount of time our crews can spend in the tunnel. The plan is for the crew to spend 40 minutes in the tunnel, while based on normal operations we have capacity at the pump station to hold the wastewater flows for up to an hour. In the very unlikely event that the crew has to spend more than an hour in the tunnel, some screened wastewater may need to be discharged from the pump station into the Cook Strait. All possible steps will be taken to prevent this, however it is important to note that this inbound wastewater is made up of 99% water, and is therefore very different to the dewatered sludge that was transported during the earlier stage of repairs. Generators onsite may create some noise, however there will be no construction undertaken during this entry. We will monitor odour and use misters if necessary.

I live in Breaker Bay. For the past two years I have mentored Coast to Coast multisport teams from Aotea College in Porirua. The teams of three enthusiastic students will cycle, mountain run and kayak from the West Coast of the South Island to the East Coast, over two very strenuous days in February 2021. We have two teams getting ready for 2021’s C2C, and we are on the lookout to borrow a girl’s road cycle, for our girls’ team. So, if you have a girl’s road cycle (ideally, plus cleated shoes and a helmet :) ) that you’re happy to lend to our girls’ team, that would be just fantastic … we’re happy to pick it up from wherever and we’ll return it after Coast to Coast, in February 2021.
Email me on arthur.tompkins@gmail.com if you can help!
Cheers,
Arthur Tompkins.

Missing since before the wild weather the other night. Very out of character for her so we are worried. Small black cat with white feet and tummy.
