Christchurch's proposal to dump sewage kicks up stink

As Wellington grapples with a wastewater disaster that's pushing 70 million litres of untreated sewage into the sea each day, Christchurch's proposal to pump semi-treated sewage into the ocean for the next two years has not gone down well with one government minister. The city's mayor, Phil Mauger, put forward the idea to mitigate the putrid stench coming from Bromley's damaged treatment plant. The plan has raised the ire of Shane Jones, who has put the council on notice. Keiller MacDuff reports.
