Work has finished for the day
The sand has been packed around
the straight lengths of pipes but all corners and new connections
must be left exposed
so the Inspector from the Cairns City Council can check out and
sign off on the work
After this, the trench can be backfilled

The pipe showing in the bottom-middle
of this photo is an inspection point for the sewerage line
The other three pipes were completed
today and will be stormwater 'pits'
These have been placed at strategic points around the pool area
and are designed to stop any run off going into the pool or across
the surrounding paving, etc
The 'pit' in the
corner of the house ... and yes, it will be cut off at ground
level and have a top grate
In this shot, the pipe on the left
is a stormwater 'pit' and on the right is another sewerage inspection
point
The trench has now been backfilled
ready for the next stage of the work
