the environment. Organochlorine pesticides and arsenic can leach slowly down the soil profile and can contaminate groundwater. The extent of leaching will depend on the soil type, with greater leaching occurring in sandy soils.

Leaching may mean that the highest concentrations of contaminants are below the soil surface at some sites. Soil contamination has been measured to a depth of five
2015/2016 was completed during 2014/2015. Projects with clear benefit to Taranaki were identified by Council staff and successfully advocated for: a review of a national High Intensity Rainfall Design System (with benefits for hydrology, river engineering and civil defence response), and development of Discrete Water Quality Sampling Standards (SEM and Policy/NPS-FW implementation benefits). The Envirolink process for soliciting projects for funding in 2016/2017 has been

Rainfall figures are from the rainfall recorder located at TRC, Stratford. 27 Figure 9 Monthly wastewater volume compared with monthly total kill and total monthly rainfall, including the R2 value. The closer the R2 value is to 1, the stronger the relationship. 27 Figure 10 Sample results from the unnamed tributary upstream and downstream of the Taranaki Abattoir wastewater
