% Dairy farming has recently expanded in the Waiwhetu region, providing
% a boost to the local economy. To cope with the increased milk
% production, a dairy company is proposing to set up a new factory. The
% factory will be located close to the Waiwhetu River, the region’s main
% waterway. To operate the new factory, the proponents want to take
% water from the river and discharge wastewater from the plant back into
% the waterway.
%
% There is already a dairy factory in the area producing milk products.
% The factory has existing discharge permits which are not up for review
% for another 10 years. At present, it uses 10,000 cubic metres of water
% from the river and discharges the same amount into the waterway. The
% wastewater is two degrees celsius warmer than the temperature of the
% river.
%
% Many prominent people are welcoming the growth of dairying in the
% region and believe the new factory will bring more jobs to the area.
% However, others are concerned about the potential environmental
% impacts of the development. Environment groups and iwi argue water
% quality is already being affected by waste generated from local farms
% and want to see the river cleaned up.
%
% Note: Waiwhetu is a fictitious region
