The other premises where fat extraction is carried on are situated
in Hanbury-road. In this place also it was pointed out that the
whole process was not carried out under cover, but every care is
taken so as to reduce the nuisance to a minimum. Although a
nuisance cannot be entirely obviated in the summer, the Council
decided, in view of the precautions taken by the occupier, not to
insist upon such alterations in the premises as would necessitate
the whole of the process to be carried on under cover.
The other offensive trade is that of the manufacture of a chemical
fertilizer. The premises are situated on the canal bank near
Willesden Junction. It was mentioned in the report of 1906 that
owing to accidents to the machinery complaints had been received
as to a nuisance, but in 1907, no source of complaint was observed.
SEWAGE DISPOSAL.
A description of the sewage works was given in the report of
1906, and it was stated that the works authorized in the Acton
Sewage Act of 1905 were in hand. The work is not yet completed,
but before the end of the summer, the whole of the sewage of the
district will be emptied into the metropolitan sewers.
