Thames Water provided Michael Gove MP with an update on the work being done to eliminate the odour, confirming that the first tank has been emptied and cleaned, and the second tank - where less odorous centrate was stored - is virtually empty too. 

Scaffolding will be installed at the site over the next several days, with the final stage of the cleaning process commencing on late Wednesday or Thursday morning. Odour control equipment will remain installed at the site until the entire cleaning job has been completed, which is expected to be by the end of this month.

Commenting, Michael Gove MP said:

"I’m glad progress is being made and that work is now moving to the final stages of the cleaning process, and I will be meeting Thames Water next week to discuss compensating and making amends with the local community."
