		The former chairman of the Hanmer Forest Trust and now Hanmer ward Hurunui District councillor, Michael Malthus, said yesterday that the formal agreement should preserve public access even if CHH was to quit its cutting rights to the 5500ha forest.

	RedOrbit - Science - More Trucks 'Bad for Landfill' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Currie argued the application would have an adverse effect on traffic in the district, its residents and the environment and claimed defects in Transwaste's original resource consent application had led directly to the condition on truck movements having to be altered.
		Currie was giving evidence before commissioner Philip Milne, who is hearing evidence on behalf of the Hurunui District Council, on a condition which the Hurunui District Council interprets as meaning only 300 heavy trucks can use the landfill in a seven-day period, travelling there and back, while Transwaste believes it means 600 heavy trucks.
		Milne said he was grappling with whether or not waste volumes had anything to do with the hearing, as the condition in question was mainly aimed at ensuring some protection of amenity values for Hurunui residents and not to control the amount of rubbish being dumped.

		This is a big challenge in a district whose occupied dwellings are increasing by 400 a year.
		When the regional council, Environment Canterbury, served notice that the district's four dumps did not comply with new environmental standards and would not be having their resource consents renewed, the Selwyn District Council radically rethought its approach to the waste management issue.
		The containers are hired (bins) or purchased (bags) from the Council and and the prices are designed to discourage use of the 240-litre "anything goes" green-top wheelie bins and encourage the use of smaller containers (80-litre bin or a Council bag) in conjunction with the composting and recycling collections.
