Waste Management called out on waterway contamination
Michelle Carmichael challenged Waste Management’s technical data.
Anti-landfill campaigner Michelle Carmichael opened her submission to an independent panel last week by saying that Waste Management had been dishonest about the potential threat of contamination caused by flood damage to its landfill.
Appearing at the resource consent hearing for a proposed landfill near Wayby Valley was the moment of truth for Ms Carmichael who has been mounting her protest since 2018. In her Fight The Tip Tiaki te Whenua submission, she threw all the law books she could at the panel, citing the Resource Management Act, Treaty of Waitangi, Ministry for Environment landfill criteria and the Auckland Unitary Plan.
