Mauke will soon see the appointment of an Environment Officer when Minister Kete Ioane visits the island.
The visit will also be to endorse an Environment Authority on the island.
Currently Aitutaki, Mitiaro and Atiu are the only outer islands with Environment Authorities.
According to National Environment Services Director Vaitoti Tupa, applications are also being accepted for Environment Officers on Mitiaro, Atiu and Mauke.
He said in the case of Atiu and Mitiaro where officers' positions already exist, the reason for re-advertising is that terms of references have changed.
