Canterbury Mornings

Water bottling operation Cloud Ocean has illegally pumped more than 10 million litres of water from its Belfast bore, breaching its consent conditions.Last month Environment Canterbury issued Cloud Ocean with a cease operations and abatement notice. However this notice was lifted on Friday after Cloud Ocean provided them with the necessary documentation to reactivate the consent. Aotearoa Water Action spokesman Peter Richardson told Chris Lynch they are pushing forward with the court action challenging the consents issued by Environment Canterbury.
