gully is a small wetland
area, which is fed by a spring that is culverted beneath the road and feeds into a small unnamed stream. The
site was unmanaged and was mostly used for the discharge of domestic waste by local residents. The landfill
closed in 1991 and was reinstated by SDC. It is monitored on a triennial basis, with inspections and sampling
undertaken during the 2020-2021 monitoring year, and next scheduled in 2023-2024.

wetland is also used to treat run off and leachate from the composting pad
2 but only discharges treated stormwater in high flow conditions.
The estimated total capacity of the three treatment ponds is approximately 10310 m3, whereas
average pumping rates are in the order of 30,000 litres per hour, during daylight hours only. This
equates to 6.75 days to pump the final treatment pit of 5360 m3 pit.
