fluctuated between about 20 and 50 g/m3N between 1995 and 2009 in MP2. In the 2010-2011 monitoring
period nitrate concentration in MP2 fell in response to reduced irrigation volumes, and since has ranged
between about 10 and 20 g/m³N, lifting when volumes increased in 2014-2015 and falling when volumes
decreased in 2015-2016. During the current …

There is no water level and/or flow monitoring at the ‘Bushline’, however the Council monitors water level
and flow of the Ngatoro Stream at SH3. By using a correlation between these two sites, a calculated flow
can be estimated for the ‘Bushline. Based on this correlation, as shown in Figure 4 the flow did not fall below
the 134 L/s limit, so no restrictions were required to be put in place.

water quality sampling sites
2.1.3 Results of receiving environment monitoring
2.1.3.1 Chemical
Receiving water quality sampling was undertaken in conjunction with discharge
sampling at points upstream (PIK000159) and downstream (PIK000166) of the
discharge. The results are presented in Table 2 and the sampling sites are shown in
Figure 1. These sites were chosen because they provide safe access to the stream
during periods of rain and are outside of the discharge mixing zone.
ground in the log and coal
storage areas (Figure 1). When it rains this material is washed into the stormwater
system, resulting in high suspended solids. In order to minimise deleterious effects
on the receiving environment, Port Taranaki Limited implemented a number of
preventative measures over the 2011-2014 period, including investing approximately
$700,000 in an improved stormwater system.
