I read with some bemusement Councillor Ruth Cadbury's letter (26 July) questioning if £120m spent on the Mogden expansion was wasted. Cllr Cadbury should be aware that the total spend was £142m and she will recall that residents begged the SDC not to approve the expansion unless all the Storm Tanks were covered during he upgrade or to wait until the High Court of Justice had ruled on the 32 counts of mismanagement and negligence at  Mogden STW filed against Thames Water.

Despite this, and the history of bad management at the site coupled with a series of Abatement Notices served on Thames Water, Cllr Cadbury saw fit to recommend approval of the expansion. Her motion was swiftly seconded by Cllr John Cooper and the two of them found it pretty easy to run rough-shod over the Conservative Chiswick Cllrs on the Committee, some  of whom had never been anywhere near Mogden.

As Cllr Cadbury did not insist that Storm Tanks were covered as a condition of the planning application, residents and visitors to Twickenham RFU have had to put up with  the increased stench of  raw sewage throughout the entire 3 year upgrade

Since the official opening of the site this year by Mary Macleod MP, the stench of raw sewage has been an absolute disgrace and complaints have been so serious that residents were driven to request Ms Macleod  to demand an explanation from Thames Waters CEO and some indication of what steps are being taken to abate the nuisance. Residents were promised by the Council that the site would be odour neutral after the upgrade. It isn't.

Not surprisingly, now that Ms Macleod MP  has officially endorsed the site at its opening, Thames Waters CEO delegated the Company's response to the Customer Service Feedback Centre who simply told Ms Macleod they had not been forwarded any complaints.  Ms Macleod appears to have accepted this response despite the fact that she has been copied in a number of complaints by residents on all boundaries of the site which were sent not only to Thames CEO but also to London Borough of Hounslow.  No doubt Hounslow's Environment Director will have passed these complaints to Cllr Cadbury so I welcome her  proposal to investigate the situation thoroughly and take full ownership of the current problems she should have assisted in avoiding.
