pollution
• Remove all soil and gravel that is visibly
contaminated with oil to a commercial waste
contractor for treatment and/or disposal.
Oily work
• If possible carry out all work under cover
• Always use drip trays when transferring or draining
oil and other liquids, and wipe up all small drips and
spills
• Clean up all spilt material immediately and dispose
of waste into a bin, ensuring that it won’t leak out.
Oily storage
• Store all waste and other liquids in
movement.
Design a fencing layout that will help
grazing management, not hinder it. Can
the new fence subdivide an existing
paddock into two, creating a better
rotation? Can the streambank fence be
one side of a new race, that enables stock
movement directly between paddocks
instead of through half a dozen? Can its
retired margin be sufficiently wide to trap
soil and dung from the race, before it gets
into the stream?
When retiring the bank from grazing
permanently, a gate won’t be

Particulate deposition monitoring
Atmospheric particulate matter can arise from a number of sources, both natural and from human activity,
for example vegetation pollens, smoke and ash, sea spray, dust from soils and paved surfaces, and
manufacturing processes. While extremely fine particles may remain floating in the atmosphere for weeks or
months, coarser dusts
(SDC) maintains a closed landfill located on Victoria Road at Stratford, in the
Patea catchment. The landfill was closed to the public on 11 March 2002, and to commercial disposers on
23 March 2002. The site has more recently been used to dewater and dispose of oxidation pond sludge
from the adjacent municipal wastewater treatment plant. This activity ceased in early 2006, and the landfill
was recapped and reinstated. The only external material now accepted at the landfill is soil from a local
vermicast and is ready for release after one year.
The vermiculture process is described in RNZ Organic Production Protocols - RW-P-751-
001-B
e 3.2 Compost
Compost is the end product of the composting process. Compost is produced using the NZ
Standards NZS 4454:2005 - Compost, Soil Conditioners and Mulch.
Before compost can be released for use on site it must pass/meet the following
specifications as shown in table 1 below.

adjacent to waterways. They extend from
the edge of the floodplain to the waterway
itself. The width of a riparian margin
depends on the channel’s shape, and how
it relates to groundwater movement
through underlying rock or alluvium. An
important component of the riparian
margin is its vegetation. The composition
of this vegetation greatly influences the
functions of the riparian margin.
ISSUES
Streambank erosion releases sediment
and nutrients to waterways. Soil

1.3.4 Water right
The NPDC holds water right 0226-1 to allow the diversion, by culverting, of the Puremu Steam to provide
road access to the landfill. The Taranaki Catchment Commission issued this on 2 April 1975, and renewed it
on 14 May 1986 under Section 21 (3) of the Water and Soil Conservation Act, 1967. It is due to expire on 1
October 2026 as per Section
activity; soil and
vegetation adsorption; different times of travel to receptors; and extent of relative dilution
and dispersion. Surface water systems are much more likely to show time-dependant
variation in concentrations, due to the presence of peaks immediately following usage and
run-off, or alternatively the flushing away and removal of any residues, compared to the
persistent reservoirs of agrichemicals within long-retention groundwater systems.
Council officers considered that in
this survey, it was
noted that a significant portion of the steep bank near the point of discharge had
collapsed into the stream. It was possible that the discharge, which ponds between the
outlet of the final skimmer pit and the stream, had saturated the soil and destabilised
the bank. The Company was instructed to investigate and remedy this issue.
The MCI scores for each site were all higher or similar to their respective predictive
scores for equivalent sites in the upper mid-reaches of
