I refer to the reply to Question No. 187 of 27 September 2007.

I understand from the Council that during the preparation of contract documents and detailed site investigation in early summer, a survey of the proposed site for the new fire station indicated contaminated soil in one of the boreholes tested. The Council is investigating the exact location and full extent of any contamination prior to inviting tenders for the new fire station.
