Memorial at Nisga’a
hall |
|
I
was told it was for William Angus – more formal event at Civic Center later
in day ---Bus from Gingolx (Kincolith) brought down 17 people – others drove |
|
Hopefully contract
will be tendered soon and work commence in a month or so with tentative
completion next spring |
City Crews
probing sewer lines |
|
This
is the parking lot beside Civic Center – see left map below where
approximately at the blue arrow --- As reported
before (and earlier with links) ,
this is in anticipation of the 5M$ Hays Creek diversion project --- here
presumably still fine tuning the route etc |
|
Diagram of present sewer lines
centering on Hays Creek See my earlier for more background |
Getting the
Sewer lines out of Hays Creek --- Here is what I understand of the routing
etc |
|
Below is an image
from engineering where currently fine tuning exactly where the diversion line
will go (I have added the arrows) ---
first have to take it up 9th Ave
(in the map below the blue arrow is McBride street – and the 2 yellow
arrows are the diversion route – the wider yellow arrow indicating the new
Hays Creek route --- the thinner yellow still tentative where the line will
go --- nor clear from image how it will be pumped – this map indicates pumped
from civic center area lot etc

Spruce
needle die off |
|
Numerous trees around town with this needle cast --- elsewhere --- usually associated with areas where obviously dying – will research further as no ‘quick answer’ on Google etc for Sitka Spruce
|
|
|
Here the new
stage getting built at ‘Spirit Park’ |
|
Originally
it was meant to be up on the summit – but rock just below surface etc meant
that easier digging down here – and audience can sit on hill to look down at
stage etc --- the covering will only be set up when events planned – thus no
worries vandalism and heavy winds etc I was told |

Art in PR |
|
I
will come back to this later – but local artists are our best feature at
present time |
