Developer fined over sediment discharge

An Auckland developer was yesterday fined $20,000 for failing to provide proper sediment controls at a subdivision.

Tuesday, January 06th 2004

Clayburn Developments Ltd, of Glen Eden, was prosecuted by the Auckland Regional Council after repeated attempts to get the developer to install controls to minimise sediment discharging into a stream.

The fine was originally $30,000 but reduced by Judge Fred McElrea in Auckland District Court, to take the company's guilty plea into account.
