Status of Wastewater Pipeline and Discharge Therefrom - Whitiriera Park, Titahi Bay
Brian Warburton made this Official Information request to Wellington Regional Council
The request was successful.
From: Brian Warburton
Dear Wellington Regional Council,
In relation to a LGOIMA request made to PCC on 27 July 2021, and subsequently transferred (in part) by PCC to GWRC, and in respect of a discharge of untreated wastewater to the Onepoto arm of Porirua Harbour on or about 18th and 20th July 2021.
A previous request for information by me to GWRC was refused by Mr A Cross (GM - Environment Group) dated 16/08/2021. Mr Cross indicated that the information couldn't be provided because (at that time) the discharge was the subject of investigation with related collation of documents and correspondence by GWRC.
I note that is now more than 2 years ago, so I presume that GWRC has collated the relevant necessary for a prosecution .
So in relation to this investigation by GWRC, I hereby request the following information:
(a) a copy of the documents and correspondence GWRC has collated; and,
(b) if GWRC has come to a conclusion about prosecution under the RMA, a copy of the document that records: what the conclusion was, who came to that conclusion, the date, the reasons why, and the document that records that the person making that conclusion has the required delegation under the RMA.
(c) if GWRC has not come to a conclusion about prosecution under the RMA, a copy of the document that records the reasons why a decision has not yet been made.
Yours faithfully,
Brian Warburton
