Scoop has an Ethical Paywall
Forrester Park
Forrester Park
Dunedin (Friday, 22 May 2015) - DCC staff members have identified that a voluntary group working at Forrester Park have disturbed material containing asbestos fibres in an old landfill site adjacent to the Forrester Park BMX Track.
There is a very low exposure risk and long-term solutions are being worked on, but in the near term the exposed area has been covered and fenced off.
Now that the site has been secured a remediation plan is being developed by an expert in the field.
In the meantime the public is advised to stay away from the fenced off area.
