Streambank fences enable easier stock

estimate for three typical application types. Buffer zones, with or without shelter belts, merely provide an opportunity
for concentrations of agrichemicals to fall sufficiently so that the risk to sensitive areas beyond the buffer zone
becomes acceptable (i.e. environmental exposure levels are not exceeded). Depending on the particular
circumstances however, there is no guarantee that this can be

However, this rule is moot based on the discretionary activity rule applying to the
surrounding properties discussed above which provides for the more onerous activity

general, the creation of stable interlocked layers of green waste ensures that it does not fall off, or get
blown off the cliffs and down onto the coastal marine area or into the sea.
From observations made during the inspection of the site no adverse environmental effects were found, or
were expected to have been occurring, as a result of the activity authorised by consent 7374-1.4.
