Stormwater and groundwater were being pumped from the floor of the quarry to the
third pond of the upper ponds settlement system. A moderate rate of discharge was
occurring from the final (sixth) pond to the tributary but there were no visual
impacts of this tributary on the appearance of the Kurapete Stream at the boundary

Habitat loss (through land
clearance and drainage) has
historically been the main
pressure on biodiversity. While
the rate of land clearance and
drainage has declined in recent times, the
ongoing loss and modification of remnant
habitats remains an issue, particularly on
privately owned land in Taranaki. Even
small losses of habitat can now have a
disproportionate impact on remaining
biodiversity – not only in terms of remnant
sites
