has been started by Effluent Services Ltd. of Stockport, in co-operation with its associated company, Sea Disposals Ltd. of Glasson Dock, Lancs. This is an effluent disposal service using dracones which arc towed behind a tug out into the Irish Sea. The companies are pioneering this method of disposal in the UK, since it is becoming increasingly impractical to use disused rnineshafts and quarries for this purpose. Half of Effluent Services' 12-vehicle fleet will be collecting industrial effluents and transporting them to Glasson Dock at the mouth of the River Lune in Morecambe Bay. Their vehicles are a ScaniaVabis/Butterfield-Yoik 32-ton-gross threeaxle artic and a Leyland Beaver/Butterfield-York artic, both of 21 tons/ capacity. The others are eight-wheeled AEC and Leyland rigids of 24 tons gross with a capacity of 14 tons or approximately 14 cu.m.
