Call For Submissions On Te Awamutu Waste-To-Energy Plant Applications
We have opened public submissions on resource consent applications to construct and operate a waste-to-energy plant in Te Awamutu.
Global Contracting Solutions Limited (GCSL) has applied for resource consents to construct and operate a waste-to-energy plant in Te Awamutu.
The Minister for the Environment ‘called in’ these applications as proposal of national significance and will appoint a board of inquiry to decide on the applications. The board will make its decision independently.
The board has nine months from today to make a decision. It has discretion to hold a public hearing.
The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) is not involved in the decision-making process. We provide administrative support to the board, including the public submission process, commissioning reports, and organising and managing a public hearing.
Submissions close at 5 pm Wednesday 18 December 2024
