Incinerator is on schedule
finished, Works and Engineering Minister the Hon. Clarence Terceira announced yesterday.
The $70.5 million plant has attracted criticisms from environment campaigners, led by Independent MP Mr. Stuart Hayward. But it is still on schedule for completion at the beginning of 1994.
Next month, the huge machines that will turn Bermuda's garbage into electricity will begin to be installed. Ninety percent of the equipment has already been shipped in. About 73 workers are employed at the site. PHOTO TAKING SHAPE -- Despite protests, the Tynes Bay incinerator continues to rise out of the ground. The picture shows construction of the ash and refuse bunker walls, using some of the 1,400 truckloads of concrete so far poured into the site. A similar amount will be delivered before the plant is completed in early 1994.
