Dam Problems Continue
The Springbank Dam Failure has prompted the City of London to take legal action after mounting pressure placed on them to get the project finished.
The Dam Failure happened after new Hydraulic Gates were installed as part of a Rehabilitation Project.
The Dam Project started in Sept of 2006 as was to be completed by fall of 2007.
Who's to Blame?
The Dam Failure happened after the first time it was tested when one of the four gates got jammed about half way open. Now the City is seeking to find out who is to blame for the Failure and seek compensation for some of the project that is already 2.6 million dollars over budget.
The Dam Project has already ruined business for the London Canoe Club that counts on flood gate control to maintain the water level in the summer.
According to the London Free Press the Dam Building Problem will now by sorted out in Court.
Until then, the Project will drag on, the park will still be a mess and the London Canoe Club may have another dry summer.
Who would have thought Dam Building was so hard!
