levels in the Silver Fern Farms supply bores GND0585 and GND1195 fall below 104 and 109 m respectively.
Consent 2261-3.1 requires that the Company record continuous water level data, to an accuracy of ±10 mm

reduction in shallow or deep groundwater levels as a result of the abstraction authorised by consent 7470-
