Watercare Services Limited ("Watercare") proposes to acquire the land described in the Schedule, pursuant to the Public Works Act 1981.
The land is required for wastewater treatment purposes, maintenance of an odour buffer, and application of biosolids in connection with the upgrading and ongoing operations of the wastewater treatment plant ("WTP") at Mangere.
The reasons Watercare considers it essential to take your interest in the land area include the need:
(a) to ensure sufficient land is available for the discharge of sludge/biosolids on to or into land in connection with the trials and investigations in the beneficial reuse of such material;
(b) to enable an odour buffer of sufficient size such that any odours from the WTP are adequately dissipated at the odour buffer boundary;
(c) to ensure control over the development and use of all areas within the designated odour buffer, being an area potentially affected by odour following completion of upgrading works;
(d) to avoid or minimise any potential conflict between the WTP and associated activities (such as the application of sludge/biosolids) and other activities in the immediate vicinity of the WTP; and
(e) to enable the effective and efficient operation of the WTP for the foreseeable future.
Anyone claiming an interest in the land (other than the registered proprietor of the freehold estate) may object to the acquisition of the land by Watercare. A written objection should be sent to the Registrar, Environment Court, Tribunals Division, Justice Department, Private Bag, Postal Centre, Wellington, prior to Friday, 21 September 2001.
