Maritime NZ: Update from today's press
conference
Points to come out of the afternoon press conference.
• MNZ Salvage Unit Manager Bruce Anderson confirmed a total of 171 tonnes of oil had now been removed from the port number 5 tank. This tank originally held 772 tonnes. Note this figure is the amount pumped off in total since pumping operations began. The amount takes some technical calculation to confirm and it is intended this will be updated daily from now on.
• National On Scene Commander Alex van Wijngaarden confirmed the Mount Maunganui main beach from the Mt Maunganui base track to Tay Street is now open to the public. Public access to the beach from Tay Street to Maketu Point, including the Maketu Estuary remains restricted.
