TAUMARUNUI IN FIRING LINE OVER RIVER WASTE
Legal action may be taken against the Taumarunui Borough Council if it continues to release sewerage system effluent with excessive faecal coliform levels into the Wanganui River. The Central Districts Catchment Board has measured levels of at least four times the maximum allowed, which is 5000 per 100 millilitres, through the last three months. An application for a water right to allow the continued discharge is pending and will be heard by the catchment board later this year.
