used nationally and internationally as a planning
tool to review and design programmes and to test the underlying rationale for public interventions.
As part of the review of its pest management strategies, the Council has applied the intervention logic
model.
The process involved a series of 14 workshops held throughout February and March 2012. At those
workshops, staff evaluated what outcomes are sought in relation to individual pest animal or plant
species, and then evaluated how that

stormwater/sewage overflows were reported in the Konini and Brown Streets areas of the
township due to surcharging of the reticulation under very heavy rainfall conditions.
Reactivation of an alarmed and telemetered overflow site has been necessary to alleviate
sewage entry to domestic property. Signage requirements have been recognised and
provided for should such

Road landfill and the excavation backfilled with clean imported soil.
The discovery of the chemical residues has raised concerns within the community that there could be general dioxin
and other contamination within the landfill and that this contamination could also be affecting the surface of the park.
Park users are concerned that they or their children might be exposed to such contamination in their day-to-day use of
the park.

I am a keen trout angler who has fished the Waiaua Stream and
Lake Opunake extensively since October 2010. The stream in
particular holds specific importance to me as it was this stream
which began my love of dry fly and nymph fishing. Prior to this I
used spinning lures and natural bait, such as creeper or the
observed magnitude of these seasonal changes varies
considerably by site, ranging from a few millimetres up to several metres. The magnitude of observed
changes is influenced by rainfall patterns, bore depth, aquifer type (confined or unconfined) and
hydraulic properties, the overlying land cover, and proximity to a stable surface water boundary or
groundwater discharge area (e.g. river or sea).
Data collected over the last two years of monitoring at each site (2015-2017) has been
performance. Mechanical aeration of the primary pond (with
some aerators replaced and additional aerators installed) was successful in maintaining
aerobic conditions throughout the majority of the period although additional industrial
loadings at times placed the system under pressure in terms of maintaining positive
dissolved oxygen levels. Although slight localised pond odours were noted on occasions,
there were no noticeable odours offsite or complaints received during the monitoring year in
publicly notified in 2015.
Context
The NPS-FM initially came into effect on 1 August 2014 and was updated in August
2017 to incorporate amendments from the National Policy Statement for Freshwater
Amendment Order 2017.
The NPS-FM sets a new direction for improving or maintaining water quality and
protecting important ecosystems in our lakes, rivers, streams and aquifers. Under
sections 62(3) and 67(3)(a) of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA), regional policy
