bund depends on how much is stored in it. Tanks – a bund around a tank or tanks must be big enough to contain: • 100% of the capacity of the largest tank Chemical storage 1 Photo 1: Large quantities of chemicals should be stored in bunded areas Photo 2: Secondary bunding within a bunded area page • plus 10% of capacity of the second largest tank • plus 100% of the other major volumes displaced inside the bunded crest • plus room for 175mm of rain
bunded to contain any stormwater and organic leachate, and exclusion drains, bunds, and diversions are situated around the ponds to divert clean stormwater away from operational areas. 74. Stormwater runoff typically occurs immediately following rain events. The stormwater volume depends on a number of factors, including the moisture content of the soil and the intensity of the rain. The majority of contaminants contained within the stormwater will be in the ‘first flush’ of water leaving
ponds before land application. The pond is stirred as effluent is sprayed onto pastures via a travelling rain gun. There are two storage ponds on the property, pond 1 has a storage capacity of 24,500 m3, and pond 2 has a storage capacity of 19,320 m3. The existing piggery, ponds, and irrigation areas in relation to the property are shown in Figure 1, and Figure 2 Figure 1 Location of Stanley Bros Trust Piggeries current buildings and effluent ponds page 2 …
westerly wind. The monthly rainfall was 210 mm of rain as recorded at the Inglewood WWTP TRC weather station. The step screen was operating and wastes were fully contained. Slight odour was noticeable in the vicinity of the step screen. One aerator was operating on the aeration pond, which was a turbid, light grey brown colour. The pond was discharging into the main pond. The main pond had a normal level of 0.76 m, with a relatively clear, green grey colour and rippled surface. The
appeared that the skimmer pit had recently discharged, considering the volume of rain that had recently fallen it was likely that the skimmer pit still had a leak. No effects were noted in the receiving waters downstream of the discharge point. 2.1.2 Results of discharge monitoring Figure 1 Location of the Cheal Production Station and associated sampling sites Chemical water quality sampling of the combined discharge from the Cheal Production Station and Cheal-A wellsite was

local fishing grounds. Tuna- heke (migratory eel) was caught from the Lagoon further inland which was also named Tapuarau and set upon these racks for drying. During the wet season the rains would flush out the Tapuarau Lagoon and the Tuna-heke would run out of the lagoon, across land, through Hauriri and eventually out at Tapuarau at the water’s edge. Paatiki (flounder) and Puupuu (sea snail) were abundant. The Waitootara river mouth was plentiful with kai and resources that
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. Permits authorising the abstraction of water are issued by the Council under Section 87(d) of the RMA. Water discharge permits Section 15(1)(a) of the RMA stipulates that no person may discharge any contaminant into water, unless the activity is expressly allowed for by a resource consent or a rule
