Recent blasting operations carried
out at Atuokoro passage, Mangaia, Cook Is., according to an official an nouncement, have resulted in in
creasing the effective depth by one
foot, the widening of the channel to allow two surf-boats to pass, and the reduction of slope of the rock face at the inner end of the passage to permit boats to be more readily hauled out and cargo more easily handled. This rock face will be cemented.
