Is The PDP Review A Farce ?
You will have seen the KCDC letter of 9 October, and if you are a submitter you should have received a copy.
CRU Chair Christopher Ruthe has personally written a letter to the Mayor raising questions as to whether the review process is mere sleight of hand, or is genuinely looking at withdrawal.

If you have concerns do write to the Council, as the Chair has. It is crucial that the status of the PDP process is sorted out as no reasonable person wants to spend time and money on attending pre-hearing conferences if the PDP is going to be withdrawn.

KCDC attempts to twist the facts
In another attempt to twist the facts, KCDC has denied that there is minimal impact on Climate Change suggesting that there had been a misquote. However, the attached letter from Mr. Dougherty shows that there was no misquote. Mr. Law, a BECA Carter consultant said that climate change predictions would be less pronounced on the Kapiti Coast at paragraph 56 of his submission. At paragraph 59, he says he “doubted that projected climate change would have an evident or quantifiable effect on low river flows in the Waikanae River.”
