-
Around 1.4 million litres of effluent that’s been discharged into the Shotover River in the first two weeks of April while Shotover sewage plant treatment mechanisms were not working.
-
More QLDC sewage test samples that have been “lost” for almost 24 hours before being submitted for testing.

A claim from QLDC that a discharge of raw sewage this week into Lake Whakatipu was “within permitted limits” when the CEO of the Otago Regional Council has confirmed to Crux that the QLDC has no such consent.
