Patea,
Rahotu, Waimate West, Oaonui and Waverley plants in regards to daily volumes or
abstraction rates. However all of these plants were compliant for over 98% of the monitoring
period.
In the 2012-2013 year there were two incidents recorded against STDC in regards to not
having telemetry installed at the Otakeho Stream and Mangawhero Stream intakes. An
abatement notice was issued and STDC are currently addressing the matter at the time of the
preparation of this report with a deadline for
performances, garden
festival activities, and once or twice a
helicopter landing.
The lawn has been and continues to be a
huge success. John Goodwin’s foresight
has been well rewarded. Spaciousness.
Thank you John.

If your day-to-day activities involve the use of water
blasting equipment, you should consider the potential
your activity has to pollute the environment.
What causes pollution?
Poor work practices while water blasting may be
causing some of these common problems:
• Discharges of contaminants including sediment,
paint, oil, heavy metals, chemical cleaners and
organic waste to the ground or stormwater system
• Foaming water in the stormwater system
• Blockage
groundwater in the vicinity of the site.
A glossary of common abbreviations and scientific terms, a bibliography and

1.1.3 The Resource Management Act (1991) and monitoring
The Resource Management Act (the Act) primarily addresses environmental `effects'
which are defined as positive or adverse, temporary or permanent, past, present or
future, or cumulative. Effects may arise in relation to:

requisite upgrade to the Patea wastewater treatment
system was completed by mid 2008, the Kaponga system by June 2008, the Waverley system
by early 2009, and the Manaia system by early 2010.
Monitoring was performed to ensure continued maintenance and efficient operation of all
treatment systems plus compliance with discharge permits' conditions.
No significant impacts of the Waverley, Kaponga, or Patea treatment systems on adjacent
receiving waters were recorded in late summer-autumn under
physicochemical analysis in order to characterise the discharges and to determine compliance
with consent conditions.
The monitoring carried out by the Council indicates that the hydraulic fracturing activities undertaken by
Todd had no significant adverse effects on local groundwater or surface water resources. A temporary
reduction in macroinvertebrate health was recorded in the unnamed tributary of the Manganui River during
the hydraulic fracturing programme and additional sediment sampling was
possible, the information it contains is general
information only.

FOREWORD
Under changes to the Land Transport Management Act 2003 introduced in
2013, regional transport committees are required to develop a regional
land transport plan, in consultation with their community and stakeholders,
every six years.
The first such plan for the region, the Regional Land Transport Plan for
Taranaki 2015/16 -2020/21(the Plan or RLTP), was
