This is to inform you that construction operations for Phase 11C of Bedford South are scheduled to commence shortly. As part of these operations, we wish to advise that blasting required to complete rock excavation will be commencing on or about March 28, 2011, with an anticipated duration of approximately one month. There will be no blasting on weekends or statutory holidays.

While these blasting operations will be noticeable to occupants of nearby buildings, the project is monitored to ensure compliance with HRM Blasting By-law B-600.
