in April 2023 indicate that the scheme had had little to no effect on the communities prior to this latest sampling event. This could be attributed to the frequent rainfall during summer, as these flow conditions reduce the influence of the HEP scheme activities. This is evident in the significant improvements in the macroinvertebrate community health at the impact sites, while the control site was in average to above average health. Consequently, based on the current (and previous) survey

5.73 km2 (TRC Explorer), with monthly rainfall averaging 176 mm. The catchment geology in the Haehanga is dominated by Papa mudstones which are easily eroded and can contribute to poor water clarity in the water ways. 4.2.2.1 Haehanga Stream and tributaries The Haehanga Stream is an entrenched meandering stream below the site, but adjacent the composting facility the stream has been modified and channelized to provide drainage away from the composting activities. The stream was
inspections. page 10 22 October 2015 The site was inspected during a rainfall event and south westerly wind conditions. A reasonable quantity of green waste material was found to be present at the time of inspection. It was observed that the lower western area was nearly full and green waste material had been dumped towards the river mouth section. It appeared that contractors were regularly removing material from the drop off areas of the site that would not be

systems. The treatment pond to the east of SH45 received stormwater and groundwater from the quarry. Treated water was either discharged to the Waingongoro River, or pumped to an adjacent dairy farm for pasture irrigation purposes. The treatment pond to the west of SH45 received quarry washwater which was recycled through the plant. An emergency overflow pipe installed in this pond discharged to the river during very high rainfall events. 1.4 Resource consents 1.4.1 Water
