A group of concerned Hokitika residents are fighting a proposed waste-to-energy plant near their town.

Renew Energy Ltd wants to build a waste-to-energy plant in Hokitika by 2022, which would burn 1000 tonnes of rubbish every day to create 28 mega watts of power, 410,000mgw of thermal energy. It would also create up to 60 direct jobs and 150 for construction.

Westland not Wasteland spokesman Mark Mellsop-Melssen said the group's aim was to stop the transport of waste to Westland for incineration.

What do you think? Should a waste-to-energy plant be built on the West Coast?

An engineers report has found there are no practical solutions to reopen the Fox Glacier access road after a major landslide blocked it in February.

While the road won't be reopened, the government has created a $3.9 million plan to sustain South Westland's tourism.

The money will go towards:
o Redesigning the Fox Glacier/Te Moeka o Tuawe experience and valley walks and creating a car park and cycle/walkway for access to the south side of the valley and glacier views, and building trails to connect existing facilities.
o Collaborating with Ngāi Tahu and Te Rūnanga o Makaawhio to develop a day walk to Lake Gault, which has reflection views of the mountains and forests and will incorporate rowi kiwi and lowland forest stories. This walk extends the walking options at Lake Matheson.
o Developing and promoting the easy access Peak Viewpoint which offers stunning views of the Southern Alps/Kā Tiritiri o te Moana.
o Re-opening the coastal walkway to Galway Beach which provides a mix of alpine views, coastal forests, wetlands and wildlife.
o Extending the cycle/walking trail on Cook Flat Rd from Fox Glacier township to Lake Matheson.
o Re-configuring car parking at Lake Matheson to provide for additional users displaced from the glacier valley.
o Refreshing road signage and visitor information.
