Resident   1,193 #3 Posted November 29, 2011 I went on a similar trip when I was a 1st year in Comprehensive. We were given a guided tour of an active water treatment plant.  Granted there were areas we couldn't go due to a safety risk (areas were chlorine gas maybe present) but it was a damn good day out.
