and is then pumped to the effluent treatment plant and discharged via the
marine outfall. Stormwater from the tankage area is pumped over into the process sewers which flow to the
storm pond. The stormwater falling on the non-process areas of the western half of the site (Figure 1) is
directed by “v” ditches running alongside the roads to a dam/pond and then out to the Tasman Sea via the
Manu Stream. Stormwater falling on the eastern side of the site is directed to unnamed tributaries of the
104A of the Resource Management Act). Rules 35
and 36 of the RFWP do not include any matters of control that expressly allow for the consideration of

unable to take into account matters that fall outside this scope.

erosion. This resulted in the site being closed to the public in 2017. Any further dune stabilisation will be
done using green waste disposed of at the Patea transfer station.
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 rain or tidal action, due to its elevation.
