Infrastructure built to trap pollution within a Denman Prospect pond has been found to be failing and in need of replacement, but critics say the current proposed solution will do little to prevent rubbish continuing to flow into the Molonglo.
A graded pollutant trap was built into the Wyndham Avenue Pond when it was established in 2014 to capture rubbish entering the pond from the surrounding construction sites, school, roads and footpaths. Rubbish has been found to build up and spill out from the trap where it flows into the Molonglo.
