2. The consent holder shall maintain the structure in a safe and sound state such that:
(a) It does not fall into a state of disrepair and continues to function effectively for the
purpose it was designed; and
(b) Its structural integrity is maintained.
3. The consent holder shall ensure that upstream and downstream passage is provided
past the weir and intake structure for trout and native fish in all their life

Likewise, an alternative intake
structure upstream or sump would
not be practicable given the
associated engineering, operational
and maintenance costs.
Yes – existing fish passes provide
effective alternative means to
ensure that indigenous and
introduced fish species are able to
navigate past the diversion weir.
The passes will continue to provide
effective passage provided they
are maintained from the build-up of
debris etc.
well-maintained with approximately ten small stockpiles of sawdust waiting to be spread. The area was
intact, with no cracking or slumping evident on either the fill area or the tip face. No unauthorised material
was noted. There was no ponding observed, despite heavy rain the previous day, and the material was damp
underfoot. The pre-fill gully was well grassed with no sign of exposed soil or sediment runoff. The stage 1 fill
area was damp underfoot and had been recently grazed, and showed no sign of
minor amount of erosion at one point that was likely to have been caused by the heavy
rain in the previous week.
The stormwater ponds were all nearly full, with approximately 0.3-0.5 m of freeboard.
The contents were a relatively clear brown colour, and the lowest pond had an iron
oxide sheen present on the surface. The downstream stormwater drain had recently
been cleared of vegetation and there were no obstructions to flow. Silt controls were in
place, and appeared to be effective as the
tidy.

The site was unmanned at the time of inspection. There was processing equipment
onsite. The hill that had been pushed into the quarry pit for reinstatement had been
graded and contoured. There was no dust found beyond the boundary of the property.
There was no runoff from the site occurring at the time of inspection. The site was tidy.

The site was unmanned at the time of inspection. It was raining and windy at the time
of inspection. The reinstated
the
time of the inspection with 5 mm of rain over the past three days.
Significant earthworks were being undertaken at the site. The contractor on-site
outlined that the whole area was being prepared for eventual filling. Pipe had been laid
down the length of both channels to pipe the spring water. Stormwater pipes and risers
had also been installed to intercept stormwater from the surrounding pasture. At the
time of the inspection, the contractor was digging a retention/silt pond for
