Birds still at risk from oil-filled quarry

OIL-COVERED birds continue to be a problem at the Torrey Canyon quarry, the GSPCA has said.

There was a promise that all of the oil would have been cleared by the end of November.

Animal collection officer Geoff George said the situation was much better, but oil remained.

Mr George, 34, who has worked for the GSPCA for 16 years, said that he was losing hope because many deadlines for emptying the quarry had passed.
