Formosa Golf Club fined $86k for pumping sewage into stream

Melanie Earley Reporter from Eastern Courier

Kia ora neighbours, Formosa Golf Club must pay $86,000 for pumping untreated sewage into the environment.
In 2019 the club was banned by Auckland Council from discharging waste from its facilities after pumping sewage into a nearby stream. The discharge was having a detrimental effect on the land and on nearby Waikopua Creek.
