Photo: Supplied / Queenstown Lakes District Council The Queenstown Lakes District Council (QLDC) says it's already made progress in fixing issues with its troubled Shotover wastewater treatment plant, and is ahead of plans to significantly upgrade the plant by the end of the year. It comes after the Environment Court imposed a number of conditions on the plant to address negative effects on the environment. The decision, released on Monday, outlined seven pages of separate enforcement orders, including upgrades, contingency measures, timeframes and milestones to be met. It was released after mediation between QLDC, Queenstown Airport Corporation and Otago Regional Council. QLDC general manager of property and infrastructure Tony Avery said the orders largely reflected activities and investments the council had already identified and committed to. "We're ahead of our programme to significantly upgrade the wastewater treatment plant by the end of this year, which will introduce a second treatment reactor and a range of supporting infrastructure to further improve the quality of treated water discharged from the facility and cater for our growing district." He said the results of ongoing testing of the treated wastewater since direct discharge began remained well within consented limits. The Environment Court's requirements relate to the operation, maintenance and upgrading of the facility, and include but are not limited to: The decision also requires QLDC to submit a consent application for a new disposal system by May 2026, and to implement that system by December 2030.

Photo: AFP New Zealander Earl Bamber will start from two on the grid for the 24 Hours of Le Mans race, with Cadillac locking out the front row in qualifying. Britain's Alex Lynn secured pole position, setting a best time of three minutes 23.166 seconds in the number 12 Team Jota Cadillac at the Sarthe circuit Bamber putting the sister 38 car alongside and 0.167 slower. Bamber has won the race twice, in 2015 and 2017 with Porsche. Fellow Kiwi Brendon Hartley, who has won the event three times, will start from 10 on the grid after team-mate Sebastien Buemi locked up the Toyota Gazoo car and drove into the gravel and was not able to finish the qualifier Lynn shares his car with compatriot Will Stevens and Frenchman Norman Nato while Bamber's teammates are 2009 Formula One world champion Jenson Button and French four-times Champ Car champion Sebastien Bourdais. "I can't tell you how much I wanted this," said Lynn, who missed out on pole last year by a mere 0.138, over the team radio. "One tenth last year hurt a lot. "I'm truly honoured to be able to put in a performance like that in front of everyone and deliver for Cadillac in the way they deserve," he added after getting out of the car. "This is a magical circuit and this is a special feeling. I can't describe it. We will enjoy this tonight, have a good sleep and re-set." GM-owned Cadillac are the first American marque to take outright pole at Le Mans since Ford in 1967. The number five Porsche Penske was third fastest, after threatening to take pole, with France's Julien Andlauer, Denmark's Michael Christensen and France's Mathieu Jaminet. The number 15 BMW qualified in fourth place with Belgian Dries Vanthoor, Swiss-Italian Raffaele Marciello and Danish former F1 driver Kevin Magnussen. Defending champions Ferrari, outright winners for the past two years, had Italian Antonio Fuoco, Denmark's Nicklas Nielsen and Spaniard Miguel Molina in seventh place in last year's winning car number 50. The 93rd edition of the race starts on Sunday at 2am NZT. - Reuters/RNZ Sport
