Landfill Planning and Construction

EnviroWaste has extensive experience in managing the planning phase of modern landfills, including site selection, resource consents, design and engineering. Our newest landfill, the North Waikato Regional Landfill at Hampton Downs, is one of the most technologically advanced landfills in the New Zealand.

EnviroWaste employs the latest technology in landfill management systems to avoid adversely affecting the surrounding environment, including:

• Advanced liner systems
• Leachate collection and disposal systems
• Storm water and sediment treatment systems
• Groundwater protection systems
• Landfill gas reticulation

Modern engineering standards mean that waste facilities are constructed to have as little impact on the environment as possible.

We manage the environmental effects of landfills we construct carefully, with extensive monitoring of both water quality and air quality undertaken regularly. Every EnviroWaste site has an environmental management plan to ensure compliance with our consents under the Resource Management Act (1991).
