Dear Canterbury Regional Council,

I would like to make an inquiry under the Official Information Act,
please.

Please provide me with the precise locations of any injection wells
which are used to dispose of the by-products of any extraction of
minerals, gas, or petroleum in your region and the details of the
substances (chemical names, volumes etc) being injected into the
wells.

I would appreciate you providing the information in an electronic
form.

Yours faithfully,
Paul McMahon.

Can you confirm, please, that your response means there are no
injection wells within the region that are or have been used to

Dear Sharon Clough,

Forgive me for being pedantic, but I would like to know whether or
not there are injection wells being used to store said by-products,
and your reiteration that there have been no applications does not
directly answer my question. It infers that the answer is 'no', I
understand, but I would like a clear answer please.

So, are there or are there not injection wells in the Canterbury
region for storing said by-products? I will be happy with a yes/no
answer.

Yours sincerely,
Paul McMahon

Hello

I can only search our records and database on specifics, and saying we have no applications means, I have searched our database and we have no records. I am sorry I cannot say what I don't know.
My answer must stay the same, we have no records that show we have received any applications for injection wells in the Canterbury region for storing said by-products?

Please give me a ring if you would like, my number is 0275497656

Regards Sharon
