Dome Valley is a rural area in the northern Auckland Region of New Zealand.

[2] A controversial proposal to build a landfill in the area caused protests and demonstrations from environmental groups in Auckland in the early 2020s.

[7][8][9] It was approved despite stiff opposition, and Waste Management New Zealand would construct and operate 60 hectares of landfill after given consent to do so.

[10] It was controversial because it would have an ecological impact on the area; it would contaminate local waterways, such as the Kaipara Harbour's water catchment.

[8] Waste Management New Zealand further had an application for a plan change to use 1000 hectares of land in the Dome Valley site recognised as a "landfill precinct".
