The camp appeared to be operating in compliance with its consent conditions at the time of inspection. Inspection 2 – 10 January 2022 The camp was busy at the time of the inspection with lots of people on site and staying in the converted containers. The baches were also busy with lots of groups

5.23 The northern irrigation area, which is closest to the receptors is irrigated using the tanker, which has a release height of approximately one metre and produces larger droplets which fall close the point of irrigation, therefore it is unlikely for odour to be experienced off-site from the irrigation of wastewater.

Resource consents 1.3.1 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. Civil Quarries Ltd holds water permit 10247-1.0 to cover the abstraction of groundwater incidental to quarry operations and for aggregate washing purposes. This permit was issued by the
of the stream however ongoing development since 2016 has resulted in more sites on the eastern side. These sites fall under permitted activity rules and are not covered by this monitoring report. Upstream, land use is pastoral and horticultural. Downstream, the Mangati flows through the residential area of Bell Block. The Mangati Reserve (Photo 1), with its popular well maintained walkway, borders the stream immediately below the industrial area. The beach at the mouth of the stream is also

The site was relatively dry (110 mm of rain had fallen over the past month). A small amount of green waste had been deposited by Fulton Hogan and Ingrams Contracting. No green waste had been deposited from the STDC Patea green waste holding facility (the Patea transfer station). Most of the green waste had

Sufficient volumes of water within streams and rivers to protect aquatic habitat is a primary concern of the Taranaki Regional Council with respect to water abstraction
levels in the race and lake and how much rain is falling locally. This has allowed Trustpower to manage race flows to minimise flooding, and has greatly improved Trustpower’s compliance with residual flow requirements. page 5 Figure 1 Main features of the Trustpower Motukawa HEP Scheme including relevant consents page 6 1.3 Resource consents 1.3.1 Water abstraction permit Section 14 of the RMA stipulates that no person may take, use, dam
or it falls within some particular categories set out in Section 14. The Council determined that the application to take groundwater fell within Rule 49 of the Regional Freshwater Plan for Taranaki (RFWP) as the rate and daily volume of the groundwater abstraction may have exceeded that of the permitted activity (Rule 48). Rule 49 provides for groundwater abstraction as a controlled activity, subject to two conditions: • The abstraction shall cause not more than a 10% lowering of
