An abatement notice has been issued to a Mount industrial company after complaints of "odour" from neighbouring businesses.
The Bay of Plenty Regional Council issued Allied Asphalt in Mount Maunganui an abatement notice for "an odour nuisance" coming from the site.
Compliance manager Stephen Mellor said the council received seven complaints about the odour on one particular day.
The company can appeal but Allied Asphalt's operations manager Brian Palmer said they would not be appealing.
Palmer said the company was investigating the problem that caused the breach and was working closely with the council to make sure it did not happen again.
