Proposed Stormwater Infrastructure – Western Isthmus

October 13th, 2017

Attached is the long awaited proposal for stormwater and wastewater work around the planned Central Interceptor.

It is an agenda item for Tuesday’s October 2017 Auckland Council Environment and Community Committee.

It includes: stormwater separation, wastewater tunnel from Grey Lynn etc.

STEPS has been working on waste water improvements with Manukau Harbour Restoration Society, Friends of Oakley Creek and others for many years.  This year SASOC and ourselves have held several rounds of meetings with Watercare, Auckland Council, Members of the Governing Body, and presented at the September Environment and Community Meeting.  We are pleased to see a proposal on the table though are yet to review it in detail and formulate a response.

Please take a look at: Agenda of Environment and Community Committee – 17 October 2017

Then contact STEPS if you have any comments or suggestions for more action.

Mt Albert War Memorial work

September 22nd, 2017

  Thanks to Jan and Steve and Sel for spending some time at Mt Albert War Memorial reserve. This park has a concrete path which caps the culvert containing Meola Creek, and it will be one of 5-6 sites where the Central Interceptor picks up the combined stormwater and sewage flows in 2021.  Watch this space for next month’s STEPS working bee – perhaps we will work at another Central Interceptor site.
