Pipeline Construction

The sub-soil on the Wesauking Pipeline has been regraded on the east side of Joyce Road and a crew was busy spreading straw on the bare ground to control erosion.



The bales of straw are feed into the straw spreader, chopped up and blown onto the bare ground.



Today's wind didn't help in controlling the aim of the spreader.
