Play stops owing to the need for a competent drain maintenance system

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Failsworth Macedonia Cricket Club’s future seems rather bleak owing to the fact that severe flooding has overburdened the drainage system at its Argyll Park ground and it is in dire need of some drain maintenance.

The club, which is now a decade old, is owned by the Macedonia Reformed Church and relies on fundraisers and monetary grants. The club officials have stated that unless they can fix their drain maintenance problems, the club will be expelled from the North Manchester League.

This is not to say that the club did not do enough to prevent such a situation. It asked Voluntary Action Oldham to come to its financial aid but was turned down. It is now only a matter of time for the Failsworth Macedonia club. The club will be fighting a tooth and nail battle in order to survive.

The secretary, Chris McHugh, said that several of the wettest summers in a row has apparently led their ground to this state and consequently, their drainage systems are in need of maintenance. He also stated that without competent drain maintenance in place, the club will have dire problems.

Drain maintenance through lining and patch repair methods

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

A drain which is broken or cut through can result in serious issues. The drain water and foul sewage can get exposed on roads and surfaces leading to the spread of many germs. This can pollute the environment and cause illness.

The drain in such a case is lined internally or a patch repair method is employed.

A new internal lining: In cases of leakages in a drain, the drain is lined with polyester resin based felt liner. Such liners can be used for pipe diameters measuring up to 600mm.

A liner 80m in length can be used to line a pipe of diameter 100mm or 150mm. Similarly, liners 50m in length can be used for 225mm and 300mm diameters and liners 30m in length for even larger diameters. Such a liner is mixed with resin. To inflate the inner lining of the pipe surface, an air inversion chamber is used.

Patch repair: An Epoxy Flexi line is used as a patch in places of defects or cracks on the pipe. Such a patch repairs or seals the cuts and bruises on the pipe surface. There is however a loss in the diameter of the pipe. Such a loss is compensated for by the increase in flow rate as all the cracks and gaps are sealed. An increase of fifteen percent in the flow rate is seen after the application of such a patch repair method.

Drainage repair companies in London provide such a service to keep your drains flowing freely.

Untreated sewage found in the sea off Torbay

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Recent forensic findings have led to the detection of human sewage in the sea water of Torbay. The study was conducted by the Environment agency. The study was conducted to find out the root cause of pollution in sea around Britain. It is a grave matter considering the damage it might cause to the natural environment.

DNA investigation was carried out of Torre Abbey Sand’s sea water. The level of pollution tends to increase post heavy showers.

The recent evidence of sewage residue has been a major area of concern for the concerned officials. The European commission is particularly unhappy because of the sewage disposal system currently in place. Some sewage is even untreated and might pose a severe threat to marine life.

The officials from the European Commission have expressed their displeasure pertaining to Britain’s inability to meet with the EU guidelines. The concerned officials at Torbay have agreed to set up an effective sewage treatment system.

Earlier, safety warnings were provided to prohibit swimmers from bathing in the waters of Torbay. Torbay officials also regularly announce safety warnings to the people of Torbay, particularly after the rains.
