  • Findings of the EPA National Investigation Into Firefighting Foams Containing PFOS
    Findings of the EPA national investigation into firefighting foams containing PFOS 4 APRIL 2019 Contents Executive Summary 5 Background 9 PFOS: International and New Zealand regulation 11 Strategy for the investigation 12 Resources 12 Scope of our role 12 Identifying where to investigate 14 Definition of the ‘use’ of foam 15 Definition of compliance 15 Our compliance approach 16 Enforcement actions available to us 16 Carrying out the investigation 18 Collection of evidence 18 Sites where the PFOS in firefighting foam was discovered 18 Observations 19 Compliance and enforcement 21 Outcome 22 Next steps 24 Compliance and enforcement 24 Review of regulatory tools 24 On prosecution 25 Conclusions 25 Appendix 1 Public interest and communications 27 Appendix 2 Sites included in the investigation 29 3 Investigation into firefighting foams containing PFOS | April 2019 4 Investigation into firefighting foams containing PFOS | April 2019 Executive Summary In December 2017, the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) began a national investigation into whether certain firefighting foams were present at airports and other locations in New Zealand. The foams under investigation contain a banned chemical, perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS). This report describes the outcome of this initiative. PFOS foams were restricted in New Zealand in 2006 when they were excluded from the Firefighting Chemicals Group Standard1, meaning PFOS-containing foams could no longer be imported into New Zealand, or be manufactured here. In 2011, an international decision that had recognised PFOS as a persistent organic pollutant2 was written into New Zealand domestic law3. This meant, in addition to the 2006 restriction, any existing products containing PFOS could no longer be used in New Zealand, and strict controls were set to manage their storage and disposal.

  • Friday 9 January 1998
    10 JANUARY 2008 New Zealand national climate summary – the year 2007 2007: much drier than average in many places, but disastrous floods in Northland. Drought, destructive tornadoes, windstorms, variable temperatures New Zealand’s climate for 2007 was marked by too little rain in many places, and record low rainfalls in some locations. Rainfall during the year was less than 60 percent of normal in parts of Marlborough, Canterbury and Central Otago, with some places recording their driest year on record. Parts of the south and east, and Wellington, recorded one of their sunniest years on record too. The national average temperature was of 12.7°C during 2007 was close to normal. This was a result of some warm months (May being the warmest on record) offset by some cooler months. “Notable climate features in various parts of the country were disastrous floods in Northland with very dry conditions, and drought in the east of the North Island”, says NIWA Principal Scientist Dr Jim Salinger. “As well there was an unprecedented swarm of tornadoes in Taranaki, destructive windstorms in Northland and in eastern New Zealand in October and hot spells. Of the main centres Dunedin was extremely sunny and dry, and it was dry in the other centres.” “The year saw a swing from an El Niño to a La Niña climate pattern. The start of the year was dominated by a weakening El Niño in the equatorial Pacific. From September onwards La Niña conditions had developed in the tropical Pacific, with a noticeable increase in the frequency and strength of the westerlies over New Zealand in October and then a significant drop in windiness from November.

  • Submission to the Productivity Commission on the Draft Report on Better Urban Planning
    SUBMISSION TO THE PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION ON THE DRAFT REPORT ON BETTER URBAN PLANNING 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 The New Zealand Airports Association ("NZ Airports") welcomes the opportunity to comment on the Productivity Commission's Draft Report on Better Urban Planning ("Draft Report"). 1.2 NZ Airports has submitted on the Resource Legislation Amendment Bill ("RLAB") and presented to the Select Committee on the RLAB, and has also submitted on the Proposed National Policy Statement on Urban Development Capacity ("NPS-UDC"). Our members have also been closely involved in extensive plan review processes in Auckland and Christchurch. Such participation is costly and time consuming - but necessary, given the important role the planning framework plays in our operations. 1.3 As discussed in our previous submissions, it is fundamental to the development of productive urban centres that residential and business growth does not hinder the effective current or future operation of New Zealand's airports. 1.4 In our view, the Draft Report does not adequately acknowledge the importance of significant infrastructure like airports in the context of urban planning and the need to effectively manage reverse sensitivity effects on such infrastructure. This is reflected in some of the Commission's recommendations which seek to limit notification and appeal rights and introduce the ability to amend zoning without using the Schedule 1 process in the Resource Management Act 1991 ("RMA"). NZ Airports has major concerns with such recommendations as they stand to significantly curtail the ability of infrastructure providers to be involved in planning processes and have their key concerns, such as reverse sensitivity effects, taken into account.
