In a few weeks the land will probably be handed over to MW, and it's a pretty serious offence if you're caught inside a government water catchment area. At the moment they have security guards patrolling the base, I dunno what will happen once it's handed over. Presumably the asbestos is a public safety issue so that's why they are vigilant with security.

I've spent over 12 hours in 3 visits there and I'm still not done. I've taken about 500 stills and 30 mins of video footage. I'll be returning at least one more time, perhaps two if I can make it. BTW, I actually do have permission to be there.

Here's a pic of some retro electrics... I wonder what happened to the guy who drilled the asbestos sheet wall to install it. Note also the blast wall to the left.
