Scope and Content
Photograph of trenching operation in the Oldman River which was being done as preparation for installation of three sanitary sewer lines to West Lethbridge and the then new University of Lethbridge campus. Contactor G. C. McLeod of Edmonton had to first building a temporary diversion for the river to keep most of the water out of the workmen’s path. Some water still seeped into the trench and had to be siphoned out before work could continue. The job was expected to be completed during the month of November, 1969.
