[font=Verdana]THE CLOCK is ticking for Methil power station as investigations continue into the best way to demolish the eyesore.[/font]
[font=Verdana][/font]
[font=Verdana]Scottish Power confirmed last year that the mothballed facility was worthless to them and was no longer even considered in the company's back-up strategy.[/font]
[font=Verdana][/font]
[font=Verdana]Workmen have intermittently visited the prominent site to assess the state of the building and surrounding land with a view to possibly knocking down the derelict structure.[/font]

[font=Verdana]And, speaking this week, a spokeswoman for Scottish Power confirmed investigations were still ongoing.[/font]
[font=Verdana][/font]
[font=Verdana]"This is a slow process," she explained.[/font]

[font=Verdana]
With the possibility of asbestos in the station, construction materials from the 40-year-old building are being carefully examined to make sure public health would not be threatened by demolition.[/font]

[font=Verdana]Once these investigations have been completed, Scottish Power will meet with Fife Council and Forth Ports Plc
