Full environmental investigations, comprehensive consultation process, and preparation of resource consent applications for the extension of the Main Wharf South at Port Nelson involving the extension of the wharf and an adjacent reclamation. An additional segment of the project involved the consultation for and preparation of a variation to the Nelson Resource Management Plan so that Port Nelson can operate within adequate but practical noise limits.
Site selection, feasibility study, full consultation process, and preparation of all resource consent applications for a new large mussel shell landfill. The project involved the identification and testing of a unique pre-treatment process which rendered the shells without odour and suitable for disposal in a clean fill site. A full AEE, incorporating groundwater, traffic, landscape, and odour studies, identified the effects of the landfill and consent was granted following a significant hearing process.
