[quote=Anonymous]This update is excerpted from a local bulletin board: βThe city was determined to locate a pool in this park despite several of us neighbors voicing concern about locating a pool structure on top of the underground springs. When the pool excavations commenced, the contractor immediately hit ground water, which now needs to be pumped away in order for the structure to remain stable. We have been told that at some point the water will be diverted into the storm drainage system under the field. But what you are currently observing is the volume of water that will now need to be pumped β 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in perpetuity β in order for the pool structure to remain stable. Because of this pumping requirement, there apparently needs to be an elaborate pumping system consisting of a primary pump, a backup pump in case the primary pump fails or needs to be replaced, and an emergency generator with secondary fuel source (oil tank or gas line) to keep the pumping going in the event of a power failure.β[/quote]
