Volunteers will again today urgently tackle rubbish strewn up and down the West Coast after torrential rain last week. Rubbish from an old landfill has been washing up along large distances north and south of the Fox River mouth. Mike Bilodeau is an Okarito resident who has been coordinating the clean-up. He speaks to Philippa Tolley.
