• All site trailers have been removed from the construction site;
• Crews have completed the handrail installation on the new path near the pump station as well as the installation of granite masonry blocks on the face of the pump station’s south wall. Cleanup activities have also been completed in the area;
• Metro Vancouver will leave the playing field bare (no grass) until the Vancouver Park Board begins its reconstruction work on the field, which is expected to begin in early spring 2010. This reconstruction work in the playing field area is unrelated to the Jervis Forcemain No. 2 project;

Hydroseeding is a planting process that involves spraying a solution of grass seed and mulch, and is expected to take one-to-two days to complete. Hydroseeding activities are not expected to have significant impacts on local residents.
