City of 麻豆精选 crews are cleaning up nearly 20,000 sandbags left along Okanagan Lake after the floods.
The bags were left under concrete blocks, but when the blocks were removed the contractor left them to do other tasks as directed by the city, said parks services manager Blair Stewart.
The bags were used for flood protection measures along the shore near Strathcona Beach.
There hasn鈥檛 been a concern with sand being left behind or spilled out of bags.
鈥淢ore of the concern was that we didn鈥檛 want the general public dumping them out,鈥� said Stewart.
A diver is also on site getting the bags out of the deeper water.
We鈥檒l hopefully get it wrapped up in two weeks,鈥� he said.
