c) Tunnel has been pegged to the ground if specified.
5. Trap is cleaned correctly a) The entire trap is substantially free of animal matter (fur, tissue
cfu/100ml). All sites assessed obtained an MfE ‘Suitability for Recreation Grade’
(SFRG) of either ‘good’ (64%) or ‘fair’ (36%).
Mann-Kendall tests were performed in order to assess any long term trends in
microbiological water quality. Three sites showed a significant decrease in median
enterococci counts over the 12-16 years monitored (Ohawe, Opunake and Ngamotu, p >
0.05) indicating an overall improvement in microbiological water quality. The site at Ohawe
showed the greatest long term
Alternative Modes (on page 16)
Cyclists and pedestrians are among the vulnerable road users who benefit from
appropriately designed shared pathways which enable them to use a transport corridor
alongside other transport modes without safety concerns (perceived or real) – be they
motorists, motorcyclists, pedestrians, cyclists, horse-riders or another mode.

Initial Proposal for Representation
Arrangements for the 2019
Local Government Elections
On 26 June 2018, the Taranaki Regional Council (the Council) reviewed its representation arrangements
and resolved to adopt the following proposal for the Councils local government elections to be held on
12 October 2019.
Council Representation
It is proposed that the Council be comprised of 11 members elected from four constituencies.
The four constituencies reflect the following
and are awaiting legislation to
be passed in Parliament. Taranaki Iwi is expecting to
initial a deed of settlement shortly, and Ngāti Maru
Iwi is in the very early stages of seeking a mandate to
begin their settlement discussions with the Crown.
Tangata whenua have a special relationship with the
natural and physical world as part of a complete
living system. Inherent in this relationship is

What does the Draft Plan propose?
Farmers on the ring plain and the northern and southern
coastal terraces would be required to ensure that the
streambanks on their properties are fenced and appropriately
vegetated or planted by 1 June 2020.
If this is not achieved, they would need to apply for a resource
consent requiring stock exclusion from waterways and
completion of riparian planting. The consenting process would
cost an estimated $1200-$1700 plus annual
environmental or agricultural values on adjacent properties.
(See Factsheet 3 to read more about the Plan).
Good Neighbour Rules apply to what pests?
The Plan identifies twelve ’Sustained Control’ pests for which
Good Neighbour Rules apply. They include one animal pest –
brushtail possums, and 11 pest plant species. All 12 species
are widespread in the region and the aim of having rules is
to minimise impacts and costs being imposed on
neighbours.
