spray management practices
1. Introduction
This Appendix has been developed from various sources of information, including
information sheets from MAF, and regional plans developed by other regional councils.
The material relating to spray management is based on information contained in New
Zealand Standard 8409: Agrichemical Users Code of Practice, June 1995, developed
by the New Zealand Agrichemical Education Trust.
This Appendix has been included in the Plan in a simple and
think that your little bit of waste can’t harm
the environment but there are other people in the
region carrying out activities similar to yours. Your
waste when combined with that of others can amount
to a significant amount of pollution occurring every day
of the year. The cumulative effects of combined
discharges can cause serious damage to our
environment and must be prevented.
It is illegal to cause pollution
In New Zealand the Resource Management Act (1991) is
the law that protects
Taranaki region waste disposal to
landfill.
This site currently operates under Resource Consents issued by the Taranaki Regional Council. Two of the
consents expire on 1 June 2018 and we are in the process of applying for renewal. The consents are 5838-2.2
which is to discharge a) waste material to land for composting and b) treated stormwater and leachate from
composting operations; onto and into land in circumstances where contaminants may enter water in the
Haehanga
in the bodies of plants and
animals potentially causing long-term health effects.
Even a very small quantity of pollutant, or just one
accidental discharge can drastically alter the quality of a
stream. Fish, insects and plant life can be killed and
their habitats destroyed. The stream can take many
years to recover.
You may think that your little bit of waste can’t harm
the environment but there are other people in the
region carrying out activities similar to yours. Your
