McKechnie Aluminium Solutions Limited (MASL). MASL operates an aluminium
foundry and extrusion process situated at Paraite Road, in the Mangaone and Mangati
catchments. The location of the site is shown in Figures 1 and 2.
Copper and brass foundries and extrusion processes had previously been operated at
the site. Copper processing ceased in June 2002 and brass processing ceased in January
2003. MASL also previously operated a separate powdercoating facility on Connett
Road in the
Road at
Ngaere, in the Patea catchment. The Waihapa Production Station processes oil and gas from
the Company’s Tariki, Waihapa and Ngaere groups of wellsites. This report for the period July
2013-June 2014 describes the monitoring programme implemented by the Taranaki Regional
Council to assess the Company’s environmental performance during the period under review,
and the results and environmental effects of the Company’s activities.
During the monitoring period, the Company demonstrated
dunelands exist at some of the larger river mouths and dominate the low-lying
coast from Pātea Beach to the southern extent of the region. Cliff-top dunes are also a
unique feature of the Taranaki coastline.
The coastline is noted for high quality surf breaks. This is particularly evident along the
stretch of coast from Kaihihi Road to Stent Road, where finger like lahar deposits form
offshore reef systems, creating a high concentration of quality surf breaks.

Commercial Waste
The April 2010 survey of waste going to Colson Road landfill indicated that 48%
of the waste received is from commercial sources. In addition with the
establishment of the new MRF it is expected that recycling options for
commercial operators will increase. Initially the focus will be on establishing
which sectors are the large waste producers and liaising with economic
development groups to determine which types of programmes would be most
useful for business.
