domestic supply before being pumped to a
nearby reservoir. The water supply is reticulated to approximately 2,300 separate
customers.
The water filters are backwashed at least once a day using treated water. These
backwashes are discharged into a large settling pond that was previously a reservoir
for the water supply prior to treatment. The outlet from the pond is an inverted pipe
located at the opposite end of the pond from the inlet. The discharge from the pond
emerges from a pipe to fall
accumulations of lahar, debris avalanche and air fall
deposits from the volcanic centres, interbedded with river and swamp deposits.
Coherent lava bodies occur in close proximity to the volcanic centres but are not
represented in the volcanic deposits beyond the Egmont National Park boundary.
As a whole, the volcanics are complex in architecture and contain a range of aquifer
types includeding unconfined, semi-confined, confined and perched aquifers.
Aquifers are typically anisotropic and ash
change in the nature or scale of the effects of a discharge
from an intensive poultry farm, a discharge will not meet the condition in Rule
52, and it must therefore fall to be considered as a discretionary activity. In this
regard, it is important to note that this is in the context of applying for a new
consent. The plan provisions accordingly enable full and unrestricted
consideration of all relevant matters for any new consents where there is a
proposed change.

Waiwhakaiho River display a ‘flashy’ nature, with flows rising and falling rapidly, discussed further in
Section 3.2.
The Waiwhakaiho River is an incised wandering, mixed bed river characterised by bed and bank
material comprised of large boulders, cobbles, coarse gravels and fine sediment. The true left bank
near the intake structure is bedrock (conglomerate), and on the true right, there are erodible banks

1.3 Resource consents
1.3.1 Water abstraction permit (groundwater)
Section 14 of the RMA stipulates that no person may take, use, dam or divert any
water, unless the activity is expressly allowed for by resource consent or a rule in a
regional plan, or it falls within some particular categories set out in Section 14.
GPL holds water permit 7067-1 to take groundwater during hydrocarbon exploration
and production operations from up
period 22 May 2020 to 30 June 2020.

2.2 It was noted that there have been a few people informing Councillors they have made
a complaint but nothing has been done and they have not heard back from anyone. It
was clarified that if the complaint is left anonymously then officers cannot contact the
person back.
2.3 The dumping of tyres was passed on to the District Councils as this falls under illegal
dumping (littering).

adverse impact on
the viability of many farms because of imposed reductions in fertiliser use and soil fertility (per
constraints on both nitrogen and superphosphate usage), regardless of any suggestions of a
compliance timeframe of ‘a generation’. This would impact on the economic and social well-
being of the wider community, urban as well as rural. The financial burden will not be spread
equitably but would fall predominantly on those farming activities in wetter areas,
