• Closing: 17 November 2009 Islington Park Limited - CRC100997
  Type: Consent Notification

  CRC100997 - to discharge stormwater containing contaminants into land from an industrial subdivision located between Waterloo and Pound Roads, Islington, Christchurch, at or about map reference NZMS 260 M35:6991-4103.  The site is located on land previously occupied by Primary Producers Cooperative Society Limited (PPCS) as a freezing works.  Stormwater will arise from roads, car parks, heavy transport/loading areas, other hardstand areas, and roofs.   Roof stormwater will be discharged into land via soak pits or infiltration basins.  All other stormwater will be discharged into land via infiltration basins. 

   

  A site management plan, site investigation plan, and an erosion and sediment control plan will be prepared to manage any historical contamination.

   

  Stormwater may contain contaminants such as suspended sediments, heavy metals, hydrocarbons, nutrients and micro-organisms, and other industrial and activity specific contaminants which will depend on the businesses which locate in the subdivision (unknown at this conceptual stage).
