The Company holds water discharge permit 0934-3 to cover the discharge of wastewater and stormwater
from a natural gut string processing factory into the Tasman Sea
which point the sole discharge constituent
from the site became stormwater. The Company aims to get the factory operational
again, although difficulty sourcing raw materials has hindered progress.

groundwater from a bore for the race track irrigation and general purposes. This permit
was issued by the Council on 20 August 2009 under

Sufficient volumes of water within streams and rivers to protect aquatic habitat is a
primary concern of the Regional Council with respect to water abstraction permits.
Water abstraction for quarries is primarily only required for the washing of aggregate,
and in this regard the Council encourages the recycling of both washwater and
stormwater to minimise the requirement to abstract surface water.
