London Tonight at 6pm will have a piece on the massive fish kill this week as a result of 400,000 tonnes of raw sewage being dumped from Mogden and the CSOs in the tideway. Rare fish species have been killed in their thousands and nursery grounds wiped out around the Mortlake/Barnes - Wandsworth areas.

Didn't we have a thread about this last year from someone objecting to the work needed to fix the sewer system, anything living in the tideway must be rare.

I understand the scheme is to take the poo in a tunnel and dump it to the east of London, where no-one will notice it.....

There's a section about this tunnel on the Thames Water website as well as a MAP of the preferred route from Hammersmith down to Beckton Sewage works just east of Newham - all sorted long before it gets to the Mudway then
