Neighbours of a Havelock North mushroom farm continue to complain to Hawke's Bay Regional Council about its odour. Te Mata Mushroom Company employs 120 people and has been operating out of its Brookvale Rd site in Hawke's Bay for more than 50 years. It was once a rural farm but due to residential development in the area over the years it is now within a few hundred metres of houses. Some locals say the odours coming from the farm have become worse over time. So far this year Hawke's Bay Regional Council has received 65 odour-related complaints about the farm, building on the 248 made last year. Te Mata Mushroom Company owner Michael Whittaker told Stuff he felt the company had been bullied over the years.

THE NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) has hit JBS Australia Pty Limited with a $15,000 fine for alleged breaches of its Environment Protection Licence at Scone Abattoir. The matters came to light during an EPA inspection on March 18 this year.

Site inundated with more than 250 complaints in past year about smell and noise levels Problems with smells, noises and toxic fumes are among hundreds of complaints which have helped to hold up handover of Interserve’s energy-from-waste scheme in Derby, documents obtained by Building have revealed. Interserve is in a 50:50 joint venture with waste management firm Renewi to carry out work on the £145m scheme at Sinfin. The JV, called Resource Recovery Solutions (RRS), had originally been due to finish the scheme for Derby city council and Derbyshire county council in spring 2017 after signing up to the deal back in 2009. The job is one of a number in the contractor’s disastrous portfolio of energy-from-waste schemes which have racked up crippling losses and caused it to seek a second rescue in less than a year. The plant (pictured), which has been built next door to a Rolls Royce factory, began taking in waste last January but has been hit with a string of complaints from lo...
