Harvest in Codgers recreation area deferred
Update: Codgers harvest deferred.
Thanks to everyone for your feedback about the harvesting in the Codgers recreation area. We’ve spent the day having further discussions with stakeholders, to come up with an alternative plan.
As a result, we are pleased to let you know that the harvesting operation has been deferred, which means we all get to enjoy the trails in the Atmore and Tantragee Reserves this spring and summer.
We’ll be speaking to stakeholders more over the coming months to work out the best time to harvest the trees with the least impact on recreation users.
Thanks again for your feedback, we do value it.
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
