corner, or south toward swales in the grassed area and then to a settling pond on the southern boundary. Stormwater from a storage area to the south of the main building is transported across the paddocks to a manhole. During heavy rain overflow from the settling pond also discharges into a single manhole and enters the piped tributary. 1 The Council has used these compliance grading criteria for more than 19 years.

Southern Hill Country Freshwater Management Unit Discussion Document annotation https://www.trc.govt.nz/ https://www.trc.govt.nz/ page Southern Hill Country Freshwater Management Unit Draft Discussion Document Page | 9 Two sites are monitored for ammonia. Both fall in band A, meaning ammonia is likely to have little to no effect on all but the most sensitive species. Modelled estimates support monitoring results, with approximately 82% of streams and
wastewater treatment system, including the installation of an additional soakage trench. The wastewater treatment system at the Retreat did not adversely affect the water quality of the local freshwater and coastal environments. Although high bacteriological results were returned from the routine sampling round in January 2019, these counts were attributed to surface runoff draining the upstream agricultural catchment, following the rains that preceded the sampling. Two follow-up samples were
was also some replacement of square kerbing with radial. Mangaotaki Rockfall (2008) Heavy rain triggered a large rock fall on 4th August 2008 at the Mangaotaki Bluffs. The large rocks blocked SH3 for almost 48hrs and a route detour through local council roads was required during this time. Two stock truck effluent disposal facilities have been built along the route, one in each of the regions – the Taranaki one at Ahititi on the northern
site. 1.3 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. The primary effects of taking and diverting groundwater is the potential for the water table to be lowered, consequently impacting on nearby surface water such as the
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
overabundance of algae and aquatic weeds, impact on the growth of sensitive species, or even become toxic to freshwater organisms. For ammonia, modelling suggests that all streams fall in band A (92%) or band B (8%) (Figure 4). Ammonia is expected to have little to no toxic effect on all but the most sensitive species. For nitrate, around 12% of streams fall within band A and aquatic species are unlikely to experience the effects of nitrate. The majority of streams fall into band B (88%) (Figure
sites are monitored for ammonia. Three out of four sites fall within band A and one site in band B. At these sites, ammonia is likely to have little to no effect on all but the most sensitive species. Modelled estimates support the monitored results, with approximately 68% in band A and 32% in band B (Figure 4). Four sites are monitored for nitrate, all of which fall in band A. At these sites, nitrate is likely to have little to no effect on aquatic life. Modelled estimates largely
