At a recent meeting of the Tima-ru Harbour Board it was decided to lay up dredge 350 until the end of the year, as rccent soundings have shown that father© is no shoaling, and that there ie 30ft. of water at low tide. The chairman (Mr. F. J. Rolleston) said that since 1907 the board had spent £82,000 on dredging, exclusive of the capital cost of the. dredge, which was £35,000. Since the construction of the eastern mole, and the recent addition of it of 450 feet, there had not been the same necessity for dredging, and a largo amount would be saved in the future thereby.
