Colin Boyd holds three resource consents, and Surrey Road Landfarms Limited (a subsidiary
company in relation to the landfarming operations at this site) holds one. Three of these
consents permit the discharge of drilling waste onto and into land via landfarming or
landspreading, and one consent permits the discharge of stormwater. The consents include a
total of 64 conditions setting out the requirements that

The draft Taranaki Regional Council Biosecurity Strategy
Biosecurity is the prevention or management of risks from
the thousands of pests and other harmful organisms that
affect our economy, environment and wellbeing.
The Taranaki Regional Council has prepared a draft
Biosecurity Strategy that

1.1.3 The Resource Management Act (1991) and monitoring
The Resource Management Act (1991) (RMA) 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:
(a) the neighbourhood
that particular regard be given to the ‘maintenance
and enhancement of the quality of the environment’. Therefore a key determinant for the Council
is to identify where trends in water quality show no change (‘maintenance’) and/or
improvement (‘enhancement’), or alternatively show decline. With the availability of a
suitable period (minimum of ten years) of robust data and access to appropriate statistical
software, temporal trend analyses were performed for state of the environment reporting

1. Introduction
This appendix provides guidelines for resource consents.
The water quality guidelines are expressed in terms of the receiving water rather than the
discharge. Thus, conditions on a resource consent must take account of the effects of, for
instance, mixing and existing discharges. This is specified in the guidelines with the
phrases “After reasonable mixing” and “the contaminant, either by itself or in combination
with other contaminants”. The
essential to maintain agricultural productivity and resilience into the future.
However, while many studies have been conducted internationally, very little is known about the
impact of intensification on biodiversity in New Zealand, or about the status of biodiversity in
New Zealand’s agricultural landscapes. Hence the effect of agricultural intensification on
biodiversity has been identified as a critical knowledge gap and high priority for study.
One common component of agricultural
