Petition request

That the House of Representatives urge IAWAI to change the location of the proposed Southern Wastewater Treatment Plant.

Petition reason

I believe that Hamilton City Council and IAWAI have ignored the voices of mana whenua and our local community directly affected. I disagree with the site preferred by IAWAI. In my view, relocation of the proposed plant is a necessary step towards preserving and protecting our environmental integrity, water, forest, both flora and fauna, local community, identity, history, cultural heritage, and historical site of Ngāti Ngamurikaitaua, Nukuhau Pā.
