patch reefs on Pātea Bank. This new knowledge is put within the context of
existing knowledge of other subtidal reef systems within TRC’s management region (territorial sea).
This new knowledge helps fill in major fundamental gaps around coastal habitats and associated
ecological assemblages, which fall under TRCs management responsibilities.
1.1 General background
The South Taranaki Bight (STB) covers an extensive seafloor area (12,500 km2) and is in part
characterised by an extensive

considerations justify otherwise. The representation of the Stratford and South Taranaki
constituencies falls outside the stipulated range. The Council considers that the Stratford Constituency
warrants one member and the South Taranaki Constituency warrants three members for the following
reasons:
• the proposed representation reflects the status quo (with only minor proposed boundary changes),
which is well understood and accepted by the regional community.
• the constituency boundaries are

1.1.7 Irrigation systems
In general there are two types of irrigation methods; surface and pressurised. The majority of irrigation
systems currently in operation in the province fall in to the pressurised category. Pressurised systems can be

However, this rule is moot based on the discretionary activity rule applying to the
surrounding properties discussed above which provides for the more onerous activity
status which would take precedence.

sample, the concentration of total chlorine in the shoreline sample was slightly above the consent limit of
0.1 g/m3 (Table 2). However, it is possible that the actual value for total chlorine did in fact fall below the
consent limit as the repeatability of the chlorine meter used is ± 0.05 g/m3; this result therefore provided
insufficient evidence for non-compliance with condition 4 of consent 2339-4.0.
7-day period across all the
recorded years. MALF is generally the minimum flow needed to maintain a catchment’s natural character and
ecosystem health however, as this measurement is an ‘average’, flows do naturally fall below MALF during
prolonged periods of dry weather or drought.
Estimations of MALF are made using long term flow records but, if no records are available, it can also be
estimated using records from hydrologically similar streams. When developing estimates of MALF, flow
