1.3.3 Water abstraction permit
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 a resource consent or a rule in a
regional plan, or it falls within some particular categories set out in Section 14.
DH Lepper Trust holds consent 0188-3 to cover the
possible to maintain micro-organisms at very low levels all of the time in all water bodies, but the investment by local communities in upgraded sewage collection and treatment systems, and by farmers fencing and planting streambanks to control stock access and reduce pasture runoff go a long way to improving water quality in Taranaki.

be well managed. However, one discharge sample taken during the year under review was non-compliant
with consent condition 7. The reading of 172g/m3 exceeded the consent limit of 100g/m3. The consent
holder was notified and asked to investigate the cause of the exceedance. The investigation found that the
yard settling pond contained a large amount of sediment, which resulted in an increase in turbidity after
heavy rain events. The settling pond underwent a deep clean and subsequent testing
rainfall events, or if animals have direct access to waterways. Human faecal
contamination of waterways can occur via poorly treated sewage or septic tank systems, or during heavy rain
when sewerage systems cannot cope and they overflow into stormwater systems. Because of these
heightened health risks from runoff and stormwater, people are often advised to avoid swimming for 48 hours
after prolonged or heavy rain.

3.3 Stability
The Kaitake Range is stable but in recent times landsliding has occurred on steeper
southern slopes during high intensity rain storms resulting in downstream channel
damage.
The Pouakai Range is also displaying evidence of more recently increased
landsliding and some channel deterioration in the north-eastern area in the upper
Oakura River catchment. The majority of the range is stable.

Patea Beach is an elevated site which for most of the time is dry. Rain that does fall on
the site drains away at a very rapid rate. The site does not suffer from flooding from

dryness in eastern areas and more rain in the west. In winter, the winds tend to blow more from the south,
causing colder temperatures across the country. In spring and autumn, south westerly winds are more
common
During La Niña events northeasterly winds tend to become more common, bringing moist, rainy conditions
to north eastern areas of the North Island and reduced rainfall to the lower and western South Island.
