B J Flood Defences
On the 6/7th Sept I reported that the BJ Flood defence pumping station had still to be completed. - after the commencement of the work in February of this year

In the October issue of the Parish Magazine, Steve Wright’s contribution comments upon the report by the Environment Agency Flood Risk Management and their statement that at the time of going to print (which could be interpreted as the 16th Sept) “the work was nearing the completion of the pumping station” and that “When all work is completed screening of the site will be carried out by planting suitable shrubbery”

Well let me advise all in B J and the Agency itself, that work appears to be NO nearer completion, with little or no apparent progress subsequent to the September statement - as my images show.

With all the rain we have had this last year it makes me wonder if all the expense in the new , non-completed B J Pumping Station was really necessary. After all we have all seen "down pour upon down pour" and "wide spread flooding" thro-out the country, but not here in B J this year.

Is it that the maintenance ( renewed) in clearing local Dykes, ditches and beck/dumbles etc was the only remedial action necessary? Instead of the instigating the reputed £350,000 contract
