NO SAND MINING BREAM BAY
Local Northland hapū, Te Patuharakeke, is opposing an application to extract millions of cubic metres of sand from Bream Bay—a resource crucial to Auckland’s ongoing growth.
The fast-track application by marine resource extraction company McCallum Brothers seeks consent to mine 8.5 million cubic metres of sand over 35 years in Northland.
This proposal has sparked strong opposition from local iwi, including Te Patuharakeke, who fear that continued extraction will cause long-term environmental damage.
