The bulk excavation of the site has now commenced. Like most sites there is always a risk of contamination. But the news from continued testing has been good with clean 'virgin' sand uncovered about 1.5 metres down. We were aware that we had a small spot with traces of mercury, but this has been remediated and was simply a 'hot spot' that has been removed. There was a small quantity of asbestos also removed that had been refuse from the packing of joists under the building.Lipman has also established its more permanent site offices on the Anzac Parade side of the site. They have also re-fenced the site. While there is an RDO across the construction industry today (and hence no work) progress has been good. The photos tell part of the story.
