Pesticides in groundwater Pesticides include herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides and can be defined as any chemical used to control pests. There is always a risk associated with them to adversely affect the environment and human health. When pesticides are applied there is a potential that some of the product may run off the soil's surface or leach down through the soil to eventually reach the groundwater. In
respect to proposed additional industrial loadings. page Regular inspections indicated no immediate problems with the oxidation ponds system’s performance, with no overflows to land or adjacent stormwater drains, following very wet weather as a direct consequence of re-engineered bunding and cell wall upgrades. Seasonal variability in secondary pond microfloral populations (as indicated by chlorophyll- concentrations) was also influenced by preceding wet-weather stormwater
encouraging. On top of its use with Yr12/13 science classes, we are now offering SHMAK courses to adult groups such as several Taranaki iwi who want to monitor the health of streams within their tribal area. This is another example of ‘citizen science’ in action. What’s more, the adults seem to really enjoy it! Kevin Regional Council Taranaki Waste Minimisation and Recycling Society in general is certainly more aware of the need to reduce, reuse or recycle its waste. This
granting of a resource consent for activities within, adjacent to, or impacting directly on, the statutory area. The limitations on the effect of statutory acknowledgements are, that except as expressly provided in the deed of settlement legislation,— (a) statutory acknowledgements do not affect, and are not able to be taken into account by, any person exercising a power or performing a function or duties under any statute, regulation or bylaw; (b) no person, in considering a
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
previous consent breaches, most of which went unpunished, and the failure to comply with many of the previous consent regulations, even when given plenty of time to do so. In such a fragile environment, there is no room for error or incompetence. The results could be catastrophic to our land, river and sea.

Three incidents of 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
disposal at Colson 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. 2.0 Site description and
