the Council.

a memorandum to the Court requesting that the Hearing Committee’s
decision stands.
On 1 August 2007, STDC wrote to iwi and the Council committing to: work on
decreasing storm water ingress to the Hawera sewerage system; testing the
permeability of the detention storage pond; not exceed the 12,000 m3/day volume of
the consent; and undertaking the necessary work under the consent (condition 10) to
review in 2009 the best practicable option for treatment and disposal of wastewater,
additional accelerated funding for a bypass of Mount
Messenger on State Highway 3 (SH3). The new project needs to be included within the
Taranaki RLTPlan in order to be progressed. The Transport Agency has therefore
lodged a request to vary the current RLTPlan.
4.3 The Committee noted and encouraged the NZ Transport Agency to engage early with
affected communities, including Iwi (Ngāti Tama) and landowners re the new Mount

species has been confirmed as being
present in Taranaki, being Echyridella

being ‘in decline’, which places them in
the ‘at risk’ category (Grainger et al,

June 2024 by Taranaki Regional Council (the Council) on the
monitoring programme associated with resource consents held by Cheal Petroleum Ltd (the Company). The
Company operates a hydrocarbon production station on Mountain Road at Ngaere, in the Waingongoro
catchment and in the Ngāti Ruanui iwi rohe.
The report includes the results and findings of the monitoring programme implemented by the Council in
respect of the consents held by the Company that relate to abstractions and discharges of
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!
