land-based treatment and disposal of farm dairy effluent will be required
in all but exceptional cases. In areas where land-based disposal is not suitable or appropriate
at all times (for example in high rainfall areas on the upper ring plain with high drainage
density and steep terrain) a treated contingency discharge to water may be allowed as part of
the land discharge consent.
The switch to land-based disposal (which is already well underway in Taranaki) will occur

The water table in the Marine Terraces is generally encountered at depths between
1.5 and 10 m below ground level. Recharge of the Marine Terrace aquifers is
primarily from rainfall infiltration.
The Whenuakura Formation comprises tertiary concretionary shelly blue-grey
siltstones, mudstones and sandstones. Hydraulic conductivities in the Whenuakura
aquifer have been measured at 1.3x10-5 to 5.8x10-5 ms-1. There are no bores tapping

The south western batter had been remediated and no exposed refuse was observed.
There was a minor amount of rilling in the top corner of the drain, attributed to the
extremely high rainfall of the previous few days. This area, including the stormwater
drainage system, was fenced off with a single-wire fence and had re-grassed well.

distances and location of the stockpiling
facilities.
The predominant soil type has been identified as gravelly sand and the vegetation
cover is pasture, recently converted from native bush. Average annual rainfall for the
site is 1,942 mm (taken from the nearby ‘Stratford’ monitoring station).
No consents were initially held to discharge stormwater from this stockpiling site, as it
was expected to comply with the permitted activity criteria in Rule 23 of the Regional
Freshwater Plan.
