@7.30 am this morning we spotted conatiners coming ashore at our entrance on Waihi Beach. A phone call from a neighbour confirmed there were more containers in the sea just out in front heading our way.
After going down to take a closer look we have found 3 containers grounded on the beach, milk powder and polystyrene scattered all along the beach from the Mako Rd entrance.Plus we could see several containers in the waves heading our way.
A call to the maritime NZ headquarters in Tauraunga to advise them about the containers confirmed we need to leave it to them to pick up the debris off the beach as they are worried about toxins
Will keep you posted.
