Waste Management expects its resource consent application to build a controversial landfill in the Dome Valley to be publicly notified sometime in the first half of next year.
A Waste Management spokesperson said the company was currently responding to Auckland Council’s questions on the consent application and preparing additional information to provide to Council.
The original resource consent application was lodged in May.
Waste Management understands its associated private plan change application is progressing through several internal Council processes before being considered for public notification.
News that Waste Management wanted to build the landfill unleashed a storm of protest in October last year. Protestors claim leachate from the landfill will likely pollute the Kaipara Harbour. They also object to hundreds of additional trucks travelling through the Dome to service the landfill.
