5. Regionally significant surf breaks
5.1 Mrs N West, Policy Analyst, spoke to the memorandum presenting for the Committee’s
consideration the findings of the online Wave Survey and the reports relating to the
identification of regionally significant surf breaks.
5.2 In response to a query about the potential impact of increased surfers it was noted that
additional work is underway with iwi to identify sites of cultural significance in
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
their associated ecosystems
of fresh water, in sustainably managing the
taking, using, damming or diverting of fresh
water.
Objective C1 - To improve integrated
management of fresh water and the use and
development of land in whole catchments,
including the interactions between fresh
water, land, associated ecosystems and the
coastal environment.
Objective D1 - To provide for the involvement
of iwi and hapū, and to ensure that tāngata

Taranaki’s rivers and streams provide freshwater habitat for at least 18 of New Zealand’s 27
indigenous fish species. A special feature of Taranaki’s indigenous freshwater fish is that 15 of the
18 known species have a marine or estuarine stage in their lifecycle and migrate to and from the
sea.
Several streams and rivers are known to be inanga spawning sites and or are home to threatened
species.
