of gravel bedloads.
The mountain and ranges have a strong influence on rainfall by producing orographic type
events which are often associated with frontal systems and depressions moving across the
Tasman Sea. Although the annual totals are quite high, the way in which rainfall is delivered is
more significant. Short duration, high intensity bursts of rain occurring during a storm event are
potentially much more significant in terms of runoff generated and related damage within the

groundwater levels as a result of the authorised abstraction.
During the period under review, groundwater levels measured within monitoring bore GND2103 varied in
response to abstraction from GND2010. When abstraction volumes increase over the summer months the
groundwater levels fall in response and during the winter months, when abstraction decreases, the
groundwater levels recover.
In summary, groundwater level monitoring data gathered by the Council does not indicate any long-term
revenue streams. Port Taranaki Ltd operates in a highly-
competitive trading environment and there are no guarantees that it will be able to continue to deliver forecast
dividend levels. Accordingly there is a risk that profits and dividends may fall at some future point. This is the
biggest risk to the delivery of the Council’s proposed programmes.
Over the ten years, there are fluctuations in the level of changes in general rates. Unchanged, these fluctuations
would result in
response.
