Divers to assess cracked Peel outfall pipe today
A specialist diving team is today (Monday) due to inspect damage to the Peel Bay sewage outfall pipe.
A crack in a chamber hatch was discovered last week, reducing the quality of bathing water and leaving a question mark over beach safety.
The MUA reduced the volume of sewage being pumped out into the bay during daytime - and today, DoI divers will carry out a full assessment of the damage.
Authority chairman Alf Cannan says every effort will be made to repair what he says is a small breach:
Senior doctors and consultants call for intervention amid 'critical shortfall in bed capacity' at Noble's Hospital
Rolling delays see Manxman sailings cancelled
Assisted dying bill receiving 'due attention it deserves' in UK
Faulty device believed to have triggered multi-agency search effort
