  • Cleanup of the Former FCC Pesticide Factory Site, Mapua: the End in Sight
    Cleanup of the Former FCC Pesticide Factory Site, Mapua: The End in Sight Andrew Fenemor1, Jenny Easton1, Tony Cussins2 1 Tasman District Council, Private Bag 4, Richmond, Nelson (Andrew Fenemor is now with Landcare Research Ltd, Nelson, but retains a project management role) 2 Tonkin & Taylor Ltd PO Box 5271, Wellesley Street, Newmarket 1036 1. INTRODUCTION The Fruitgrowers Chemical Company (FCC) site at Mapua has been described as New Zealand’s worst contaminated site. Tasman District Council, with a Government funding contribution, has contracted Thiess Services/EDL to remediate the pesticide- contaminated soils and estuarine sediments over the next two years. This case study summarises the history and status of the FCC site. We then identify the key communication tools used to obtain support for the project to this stage, and the risk communication challenges for the coming clean-up. 2. BACKGROUND The FCC site occupies some 3.8ha of prime coastal land in the heart of Mapua village, between Richmond and Motueka. The Fruitgrowers Chemical Company pesticide factory operated from 1932 to 1988. FCC formulated over 100 different pesticides, including persistent organochlorines such as DDT and dieldrin which have contaminated the site and environs, the underlying groundwater and adjacent estuary. Since the plant began, the surrounding land has gradually been developed for residential land uses. To undertake effective clean-up and avoid lengthy legal proceedings, Council negotiated to take over ownership of the whole site. This was completed in July 1996 after two years negotiations with Ceres Pacific and Mintech, who also contributed funding for site clearance and clean-up.
