World Cup fever hits our region We did it three and a half years ago for our favourite winter sport – now Nelson is preparing to embrace another world cup, this time for our top summer code.

This Saturday, the Cricket World Cup will officially start in Christchurch and Nelson is getting right behind the action with the Nelson 111 Cricket Street Party taking over upper Trafalgar St. In 2011, the same space was the venue for hundreds of Nelsonians as they watched the All Blacks win the Rugby World Cup and many will be hoping to watch the Blackcaps get off to the best possible start to the Cricket World Cup in the same place.

The street party will include food and drink stalls, activities for kids and a giant bigscreen for people to watch the game, and will run from 10am until 6pm.

Just down the road the annual Market Day will mean most

of Trafalgar St will be in party mode for most of Saturday.

On Sunday, the city will attempt to set a new world record for the most number of people “doing the Nelson,” at Trafalgar Park from 11.30am.

The “Nelson” is a cricketing superstition, referring to team or individual scores of 111, thought to refer to Lord Nelson’s lost eye, arm and unknown third appendage at the battle of Trafalgar. Tradition states that 111 is an unlucky score, so to mitigate that standing on one leg or, if you are sitting taking both feet off the ground, is supposed to prevent disaster until the score moves on.

The current record is held in England, where 2276 people stood on one leg simultaneously.

Survivor Scooter attracts new faces Simon Bloomberg This year’s Survivor Scooter charity ride may be a lot shorter in terms of distance than the original edition from Bluff to Nelson but organiser Jason Monopoli is promising that it will be a lot more challenging.

Survivor Scooter 5 will start at Hanmer Springs on February 18 when 25 riders on their 50cc scooters set out on a four-day 350 kilometre journey.

Although Jason will not disclose the route before the ride starts, he says it will “end somewhere on the north-west of the West Coast” and have an extremely interesting finish.

“It’s going to start off relatively easy and then get more challenging towards the end. It’s going to be fewer kilometres than the earlier rides but a lot more fun.”

Jason says riders will cover some of the toughest offroad tracks in the top of the South Island.

If that wasn’t enough, they also have to compete in challenges each day against the other riders with the winner raising Richmond’s Rod Sharp, Christine Clark, Janine Pomeroy and Andrew cash for charity.

World Cup arrives FROM PAGE 1

On Monday, the action switches to Saxton Oval where the West Indies will play Ireland from 10am. It will be the first of three Cricket World Cup games to be played in Nelson and it is already sold out.

Nelson deputy mayor Paul Matheson says the games will provide great exposure for the region.

However, it seems that the Tasman district has failed to get enthused about the Cricket World Cup with

the council and Richmond Unlimited deciding not to put on any events. “It’s probably a missed opportunity for Richmond,” says Richmond Unlimited’s Kim Quit.

“It’s a big event for the region but funding these events is the bottom line.”

TDC’s community and recreation advisor, Mike Tasman-Jones, says they haven’t organised anything apart from helping to erect temporary bike stands at Saxton Oval to encourage people to bike to games.

Couples join scooter challenge FROM PAGE 1 cash for charity.

“The challenges are going to be interesting this year. We have one called the Bear Grylls Challenge so that gives you an idea of what the riders are in for.”

Jason says the ride is a fundraiser for the Nelson Ark with all proceeds going to the charity. It is supported by the Nelson Four Wheel Drive Club which provides logistic support for the riders.

Many of the riders in this year’s Survivor Scooter are “repeat offenders” which Jason says is a testament to the popularity of the event.

Two of those repeat offenders are Nelson couple Christine and Andrew Clark who have also talked their friends, Rod Sharp and Janine Pomeroy, into joining them.

“It will be the third time we’ve done it and we’re really looking forward to it,” Christine says.

“You get to see some incredible countryside and have so much fun.

“It’s like four-wheel-driving except you aren’t sitting in a cab.

are great company too - they are all adventurous and have a good sense of humour.”

Although Rod and Janine will be Survivor Scooter rookies, Christine is confident they will be up to the challenge.

“They both do adventure racing and Rod was in the army so they’ll cope really well. They’ll probably handle it better than us.”

The event has already raised $1040 for the Ark after major sponsor Total Oil donate a new Peugeot scooter which was sold on TradeMe along with a free entry into the ride. The scooter will be auctioned-off after the ride with the proceeds also going to the Ark.

Muddy Buddy conditions a ‘huge over-reaction’ Simon Bloomberg

Tasman School has been made to comply with “heavy-handed” conditions to gain a resource consent so it can hold its popular fundraising Muddy Buddy Adventure Fun Run next month.

Last year 1400 people slithered their way around the Moutere Inlet in the fun run which raised $13,000 for the school.

Muddy Buddy will be held again on March 15 this year but only after the Tasman District Council approved a resource consent for the event that councillor Judene Edgar says includes conditions that “are way over the top”.

“They have made the school change the course so the Muddy Buddies have to cross the road to get to the estuary instead of going through a concrete culvert under the road.

That one really threw me - how can a concrete culvert be a sensitive environment?”

Judene says the school will now have to implement a traffic management plan to divert traffic so that Muddy Buddy contestants can safely cross Aporo Rd. She estimated that alone could cost the school around $1500.

The resource consent also limits Muddy Buddy to 1400 peo-

Francesca Todd Rose, 16, was all smiles at the completion of the Muddy Buddy Fun Run at the Moutere Inlet last year. ple to minimise its impact on the environment.

The school will have to mitigate the impact of the event by implementing a planting programme and changing the course each year.

However, Judene, who has entered Muddy Buddy every year since it started in 2010, says all these conditions are unnecessary anyway because the original report by environmental consultants Wriggle showed that the event had a negligible impact on the environment.

The report states that Muddy Buddy’s impact on estuarine animals and plants appears minimal because “most of the course is located on perched, muddy mid-tidal flats” where

“animals were generally scarce” and plants didn’t grow.

It also reported that “surface disturbance of the muddy intertidal flats was minor and returned relatively quickly to a point where visual impacts were not obvious.”

The only minor concern was damage to a 100 square metre area of saltmarsh that showed “signs of recovery after six months”.

“Evidence showed Muddy Buddy doesn’t have a significant impact,” Judene says.

“Concerns were raised by DOC and iwi but it depends how you respond to those concerns.

“What we have made the school go through has been a huge over-reaction. We have made life hard for them instead of working with them.”

Tasman School principal, Pip Wells agrees they had to go through a detailed resource consent process with council but she is happy the event will go ahead.

Pip says the school has always been concerned about environmental issues and will be working with DOC, replanting and monitoring the overall impact of the event.

Muddy Buddy will be held on Sunday, March 15 with registrations from 9.30am to 10.30am.

Honey season bang on the money Simon Bloomberg

Nelson beekeepers are enjoying one of the best seasons in 40 years with warm temperatures, timely rainfalls and prolific flowering resulting in bumper yields of high quality honey.

“It’s a really excellent season with yields well above average,” Moutere Beekeeping’s Hector Urquhart says. “We are getting around 50 to 70 kilograms of honey from each hive, which is very good.

“I’ve been beekeeping here for 12 years and this year’s right up there with the very good season we had in 2009-2010.

But I think the quality is better this year - we have had pollen counts done on the manuka honey and it’s very good quality.”

Hector, who has hives in Golden Bay and around the Nelson-Tasman region, says the heat, timely rainfalls and good flowering by key plants have combined to produce the perfect season.

“We have the nice hot days and it hasn’t been windy. The manuka and kanuka and kamahi have also been flowering really well and then we’ve had just enough rain to release the nectar,” he says.

Managing director of Nelson Honey Philip Cropp, who is a third-generation beekeeper and started commercial beekeeping in 1972, says “it’s one of the best season’s we have ever seen”.

Although Philip says it is “too early” to put a figure on yields, it will “be well above average.”

“The manuka has been flowing very well and it’s our premium-priced product compared to other honey. There’s lots of different grades of manuka

President of the Nelson branch of the National Beekeepers Association and Mountain Valley Honey co-owner, Murray Elwood agrees the “perfect weather” has resulted in “a very good season”.

“We started harvesting just after Christmas and the quantity is good and the quality is good. It’s been a little difficult getting a pure line of manuka honey because the kamahi has been flowering so well but we are very happy with it.”

Murray says the bumper season is good news for beekeepers after many reported poor yields last summer.

“Last season wasn’t very good for us. It was a cold summer and we had a poor nectar flow.

“But this season is pretty darn good. and I’ve been beekeeping for 25 years and this season would be in the top four or five.”

Hector says beekeepers are also benefitting from strong domestic and export markets. Demand and price have been high especially for manuka honey which is the most expensive in the world.

“The strong demand for manuka honey seems to be lifting the price of other honey. It’s a good time to be a beekeeper,” he says.

New Zealand’s 4279 registered beekeepers, 27,106 apiaries and 452,018 beehives produce around 9000 to 12,000 tonnes of honey annually, with one third to half exported. Exports of honey are valued at around $81 million.

Motorsport park gaining traction

The newly-named Kohatu Park is gaining plenty of support from motorsport enthusiasts and businesses as fund-raising and planning for the motorsport and adventure park near Tapawera south of Nelson changes up a gear.

Plans for a motorsport venue on a 203 hectare property owned by Nelson businessman and motorsport enthusiast, Garry Adcock, have been in the pipeline for a number of years. But the project gained traction last year after a resource consent was granted for initial earthworks and infrastructure at the site and a board of directors was elected to steer the project.

And now the board has launched a new website to publicise the project and started a membership drive to show that it has enough support from the community.

Board member Dave McLeod says they already have about 300 members and are aiming to get 1000 by March.

Dave says the support is critical to show the Nelson and Tasman councils that the Kohatu Motorsport Park should be included their 2015-2025 Long Term Plans to be finalised in June this year.

“Now is the time, if they want a park, to get behind it and make it happen. The more support we can show, the sooner the park

Associate membership costs $20, with new members eligible for $55 of discounts

through a voucher system backed by Nelson businesses. “That funding isn’t going to build the park but it is important because it will show the level of support,” Dave says.

He says the serious funding for the project would need to come from major sponsors.

Dave says the board has also received the first concept plans for some of the facilities at the park and he expects work to start soon on some of the “non-seal” tracks for motocross, supercross, rallying and offroad racing.

Kohatu Park will be having on open day on-site on February 22. For information, see kohatupark.co.nz

MOUNTAINBIKER REACHES GOAL: Nelson mountainbiker Tom Filmer completed 21 ascents of the Barnicoat Hill well within 21 hours on Saturday to complete his charity ride to celebrate his 21st birthday.

A bouquet of red roses might be the traditional Valentine’s Day gift, but Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology (NMIT) is offering a greener option for nature lovers this year.

A Nursery Open Day will be held this Saturday from 9am to midday at NMIT’s Richmond Campus in Lower Queen St. Morning tea will be available and participants will have the opportunity to pot up native plants for the many exciting re-vegetation projects happening around the region - they will also receive a flax plant as a green Valentine’s Day gift.

The open day is being held to promote NMIT’s National Certificate in Horticulture (Level 3) which runs part-time over one year and has no fees. Tutor Don Cross says the course covers the basics of plant propagation, irrigation, agrichemical use, plant identification, pruning, botany, plant protection soils and media.

Don says horticulture is the second largest employer in the Nelson-Tasman region and there are also a large number of people involved in conservation and restoration work who could benefit from gaining the qualification.

“It’s a highly practical programme which has been designed for people either working in, or interested in, horticulture. After successfully

Busiest month ever for rescue helicopter Monique Bergman

January was the busiest month on record for the Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter with the crew attending 64 call outs.

Last year was also a record year with 460 total missions throughout the region, a 28 per cent increase from the previous year at 357 emergencies.

A festival to feast on Jacob Chandler

The smell of hangi wafted through the air as visitors were treated to an array of international foods at the Whakatu Marae for the 2015 International Kai Festival on Friday.

The Waitangi Day event drew large crowds which crammed in around both the marae and Founders Heritage Park.

Visitors had the chance to taste a variety of Maori and New Zealand kai including hangi, boil-up pies, whitebait patties, fried bread and raw fish. A number of international stalls were also serving up traditional food such as oliebol, churros, curries and breads.

with foreign tourists visiting earlier this year and Cantabrians returning in larger numbers to our region could have contributed towards the increase in January missions.

Call outs included general medical emergencies such as motor vehicle and mountain biking accidents, search and rescue operations and fires. Most of the emergencies were in the three National Parks within the Nelson, Tasman, Marlborough and Buller areas.

A long queue of people formed around the hangi pit as the baskets of food were lifted from the hot irons and dished up into paper bowls.

Event organiser Carol Hippolite says she was overwhelmed with the reaction from visitors.

“Most people who I talked to said it was pretty awesome and we didn’t need to change anything.

They loved all the performances.”

She says the event attracts a lot of tourists who like to learn about Maori culture. This year she had worked in with the Nelson Provincial Museum to develop display placards and pamphlets to hand out.

She estimates the turnout was close to last year’s number of around 10,000 people.

A joint initiative between Huggies, Plunket and the ASB Aquatic Centre is aimed at getting young children into the pool to learn to swim without the risk of a “Code Brown” alert.

Plunket has been staging a campaign to keep the country’s littlest swimmers safe by urging parents to “stay close and actively supervise your children, keeping them within reach at all times when they are in and around water.”

And to support Plunket’s message, nappy brand Huggies is leading a new safe water initiative to help keep pool water clean while also giving parents a new incentive to enrol their toddlers in swim lessons.

Huggies is offering a free first-pair of their Little Swimmers Swimpants for every child under 18 months who is enrolled in baby and toddler Daniel McGuiness and his son Oliver joined in the ASB Aquatic Centre’s Swim Magic pre-school swim lessons in the first term at pools throughswim lessons last week. Oliver is wearing the free Little Swimmers Swimpants sponsored by Hug- out the country including the ASB Aquatic Centre Swim Magic swim school. gies. Photo: Simon Bloomberg.

“It’s a great initiative because it’s promoting the message that it’s fine to take your child to swimming lessons even if they aren’t toilet trained,” Swim Magic’s Lisa Stove says.

“We have around 420 pre-schoolers coming in here for lessons each week and we don’t have any problems.”

Although the ASB Aquatic Centre has a sophisticated filtration system, Lisa says a Code Brown” alert would close the learner’s pool for four hours. It would take eight hours for the two filtration cycles to clear the main pool.

Huggies has handed out 2000 first-pairs of swimpants to swim schools throughout the country as part of the promotion.

After 40 years of trying, Pat finally wins his mum’s trophy Monique Bergman For more than 40 years Pat Bailey has had just one bowls trophy on his mind, the one that was dedicated to his mother – and on Sunday, close to tears, he finally won it.

The Bailey Trophy was donated to the Stoke Bowling Club by his late father, Denny Bailey, 41 years ago, in memory of Pat’s mother, Lila.

Pat has played for the trophy almost every year since, only missing when it was either cancelled due to poor weather, or a lack of teams forced it to be cancelled.

But on Sunday, he finally won it.

“I have been trying to win the trophy since 1974 and I have been in some really good teams, including one with my late sister, Kathleen Tomlinson, who won a New Zealand Championship, but I was a bridesmaid many times, so I am thrilled to bits that we won,” says Pat. Pat has been playing bowls for 52 years and during that time he has won many championships, but he

ranks Sunday’s win the most special of his career.

Pat and his team mates, Colin Delaney and Monica Kennedy, won the prized trophy over 15 other mixed teams at the Stoke Bowling Club.

At nearly 82, he says that he can’t play like he used to as his body won’t do what his mind is telling it to do, so needs to play with a mechanical arm. He credited his team mates with the win.

“Colin skipped, Monica played two and I led, both of my team mates played excellent,” says Pat. The first bowls Pat ever played was in a father and son tournament at Mapua Bowling Club, which they won, and from that time on he was hooked on bowls. He won over 30 club championships there before moving to the Richmond Bowling Club 14 years ago.

“My father was a real male chauviist but his second wife made him change his mind when it came to women playing bowls, so he donated the trophy for a mixed team, in memory of my mother,” says Pat.

Top cop farewells Nelson Simon Bloomberg

Senior reporter Reporter

simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz Cleaning up Bridge Street and gaining the confidence and trust of the Nelson public stand out as highlights for Nelson Bays Police Area Commander Inspector Steve Greally who is heading to Wellington next month to take up a job as national manager of road policing.

When Steve arrived in Nelson three years ago, he promised to target the drunken disorder that reigned on Nelson’s Bridge St on Saturday nights and he delivered on that promise. And while he takes a lot of satisfaction out of that “result” he says one of the biggest accolades for his 137 staff at Nelson Bays police is that “our public trust and confidence is among the highest in New Zealand”.

“Bridge Street has been a major focus and I think we have really changed the culture there on Saturday night and Sunday morning There are far fewer serious assaults, whether they be physical or sexual, which is great.

“But the police have served Nelson Bays very well in all areas and that’s reflected in the public trust in us. I am immensely proud of my staff.

“I know they work extremely hard and I’ve seen them put in a lot of sleepless nights. They have just got on and done the job they believe in so they can make it a placer safe for everyone.”

Steve also identifies the downward trend in crime statistics, “a couple” of successful homicide investigations and “good results” with the Red Devils” as

Steve Greally is heading to Wellington after three years as Nelson Bays Police Area Commander. Photo: Simon Bloomberg. other highlights.

“The downward trend in the crime stats is pleasing and we have had really good traction over the last three years.

But that will hit a lower limit and so we need to keep looking at ways to continually keep improving the way we do things and make gains - that will be one of the biggest challenges for the new area commander.”

Steve says one of the keys to the police’s success over the last three years has been engaging the community and that’s something he learned quickly as an area commander.

“It’s been a steep learning curve and I have learned so much about people. It’s not just about managing staff, it’s also about interacting with the people outside the police and in the community

groups - they are the ones who understand the issues.”

Steve says it was a “really tough decision” to leave Nelson after three years but the new new job represents a significant opportunity.

“It’s going to be a huge change. As an area commander road policing is part of what I do anyway but to have a sole focus on road policing is a challenge I’m looking forward to.

“But it was still a really tough decision.

My wife, Erin, and I love Nelson - the weather is fantastic, the people are great.

“What’s not to love about Nelson? It’s going to be very hard to leave.”

Steve starts his new role on March 16 and says a new area commander for Nelson has yet to be appointed.

Nelson Forests Ltd are proud to support the Brightwater Wine and Food Festival

It’s a celebration of everything local and this Sunday is your chance to enjoy the splendours of the Brightwater Wine and Food Festival.

Their success last year can be attributed to a fantastic turn out of stallholders and patrons, and the hard work of organisers, the Rotary Club of Richmond. The event is also hugely important to the community because of the funds it provides for local charitable organisations. Last year the festival managed to raise over $28,000 for these groups and this year will be no different. Proceeds will be going towards the Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter, Wanderers Sports Club, Brightwater Rural Fire Force, Richmond Volunteer Fire Brigade, St John, Brightwater School, Hype, Great Taste Cycle Trail Trust and the Nelson Volunteer Coast Guard.

With a ‘back to basics’ motto that successfully showcases the important elements of the Brightwater Wine and Food Festival, you do not want to miss out on enjoying a day of delicious food, fantastic local wine and beer and a display of boats from the NZ Antique and Classic Boat Show, set up to welcome the public into the event. Located amongst the vines of the beautiful Middle-Earth Winery, the atmosphere of the festival just can’t be beaten and is the perfect venue for enjoying some of the area’s most talented musicians. If you have the moves, then don’t be afraid to show them off as you listen to acts such as Paul Madsen, Kramit, Urban, Antoni Neale, along with the Neale brothers and a set from the winner of this year’s More FM competition, Sound Stage.

Every year the proceeds from the Brightwater Wine and Food Festival are distributed to local charities – including the Brightwater Volunteer Rural Firefighters.

The Lantern Finding New Life The birth of a new baby is always awe-inspiring. Recently our family welcomed another wee girl into the world. Snuggles with the new born were delightful.

Who enjoys reading the Letters to the Editor? There is often vigorous debate about various religions including Christianity. Some say believing in Jesus Christ takes blind faith.

Recently, Ray Mackie, wrote: Christianity is a reasonable faith, based on historical evidence, eyewitness accounts, pathology, circumstantial evidence, documents by hostile witnesses, lives dramatically changed for the better. (Nelson Mail, 2/2/15)

of life and letting Jesus create new life in us. Jesus does that real well.

Every new baby is wonderful. New Christians are wonderful too, if sometimes a bit scary in their enthusiasm. New life is a great experience. New life is possible every day, simply by asking Jesus to be near us and to do what he wants within us.

Keen to experience new life? Visit a church, read the Bible, join a Christian group, or approach Jesus directly.

And ….. some prefer to avoid this next bit … it involves being changed in order to fulfil the potential God has given us. Some years back, Jesus told a religious-type guy, “You must be born again.”

Christians have made this ‘born-again’ thing into a formula. That’s a very great pity. Being ‘born again’ is actually about dying to our old, self-centred way

I have been to Tuvalu four times in the last two years to help people to become more self-sufficient. The mentoring is free to the businesses involved. One of my clients is a fisherman who goes out every day in his dinghy and outboard motor and sells his catch on the front lawn of his house on his return.

The Christian faith is not a bunch of dry, dull facts though. It is a life-affirming, life-enhancing relationship with the living Jesus. It is about experiencing love and power in that relationship.

Funafuti is one of 8 Island in Tuvalu, (previously called the Ellice Islands) about 1,000 km north of Fiji and ten degrees south of the equator. The nearest island to Funafuti is 100 km to the north.

Ray’s gets it. Most Christians are not empty-headed, clueless people. Most have examined the evidence and made rational deductions from what they’ve discovered. Most churches and church leaders encourage people to research and evaluate their faith. Hopefully Christians are thinking people.

Phil Costley is running in the Buller Marathon this Saturday. Photo: Barry Whitnall/Shuttersport.

One of New Zealand distance running’s most durable performers, Phil Costley, is chasing another milestone in this Saturday’s Buller Marathon.

The Nelson College teacher, who has a staggering 32 national titles to his name, already holds the Buller open half and full marathon and veteran half marathon records in the popular run through the Buller Gorge to Westport. On Saturday, he will be aiming to complete the set by attempting to break David Askin’s veteran’s marathon record of 2 hours 29 minutes 16 seconds set in 1997.

“It’s in the back of my mind but I’m pretty relaxed about the whole thing,” Phil says. “It also depends on the day - when you are running 42 kilometres there are so many variables that anything can happen.

“I haven’t done any races for a while so it’s hard to know what sort of shape I’m in as well. I’ll just take in one kilometre at a time and see how we are going.’

Phil’s last race was the Sun Run Marathon in Blenheim in November which he won in 2hr 32min 41sec. Although he hasn’t raced since then he says the experience he has gained running “close to 20 marathons” and countless half marathons “counts for a lot at the tough end of the race”.

Phil is one of 149 runners in the full marathon.

Hope runner Paula Canning will be defending her half marathon title she won last year in 1hr 22min 36. There will be 868 runners in the half marathon run, 239 in the half marathon walk and 83 relay teams, taking the number of entries to 1825.

This could be the year to try your hand at golf, and where better to ignite a passion for the sport than at Greenacres Golf Club. Just a few minutes from Richmond and across the estuary from Rabbit Island, the serene semi-links 18-hole golf course is one of the region’s best, boasting breathtaking views for its players and staff, while offering a challenging enough round for both competitive and social golfers.

The Best Island course is relatively easy to play and walk around and features spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and estuary, providing the perfect backdrop to your golfing experience.

Greenacres welcomes newcomers to try out the sport, along with former players looking to get back into the game.

You’ll be sure to enjoy the great scenery while mastering the skill behind such a popular sport. If you don’t have your own gear, the team at Sharpies Pro Shop (situated in the Greenacres Clubhouse) can kit you out with everything you need.

On the Auckland War Memorial Museum Cenotaph database his next of kin is listed as Mrs W. Parkinson (mother), Awa, Nelson.

Before enlisting for service during World War One, Cozens worked for himself as a farmer. Cozens enlisted from Murchison and joined the Canterbury Infantry Battalion.

He embarked on 24 September 1914 from Lyttelton for Wellington.

From Wellington, Cozens joined the Main Body and embarked on 16 October 1914 for Egypt.

Draft Tasman District Council Wastewater Bylaw 2015

Lance Sergeant Allan Roy Cozens (1892 1973). Nelson Provincial Museum, Tyree Studio Collection: 84008.

Balkans and Western Europe. Cozens survived the war and was

discharged on 4 June 1919. He died on 3 March 1973 in Nelson.

The previous bylaw has expired and the Council has to replace it.

A focus of the bylaw is the discharge of trade waste into the wastewater system. Trade waste is any liquid that is not domestic in nature and will typically come from commercial or industrial activities. Trade waste controls are necessary to avoid operational and treatment problems within the wastewater system, public health and safety, and effects on the environment.

The bylaw softens a 2005 definition of trade waste in a previous bylaw. Businesses or community facilities that only have conveniences such as toilets, kitchenettes, and/or staff rooms are not now considered trade waste.

Many trade waste activities are now ‘permitted activities’ and simply need to register their activity with Council.

Trade waste activities that are likely to have an adverse affect will need a trade waste permit.

The bylaw also addresses issues such as inappropriate inflow or infiltration, overloading, blockages and working close to the wastewater system.

A statement of proposal is available for viewing on the Council website www.tasman.govt.nz and at all Council offices, Service Centres, and Libraries during normal opening hours.

An open forum to explain the intention of the proposed bylaw and answer any questions or concerns will be held on Thursday 12 February 2015 at 5.00 pm in the Council Chamber, Richmond.

This draft bylaw is available for you to have your say – consultation closes at 4.30 pm, 20 February 2015.

If you have any questions regarding the bylaw or the consultation process, please contact Daryl Page on, Ph. 03 5437264 or Email: daryl.page@tasman.govt.nz Tasman District Council: Richmond Office 189 Queen Street, Private Bag 4, Richmond 7050, New Zealand Phone: 03 543 8400 Fax: 03 543 9524 Email: info@tasman.govt.nz Website: www.tasman.govt.nz
