Condition 6 states that the consent holder shall adopt the best practicable option to
minimise adverse environmental effects.
Condition 7 requires that work associated with the structure shall comply with noise
standards.
Condition 8 requires the consent holder to survey and map the position of the
structures.
Condition 9 requires the consent holder undertake pre and post-lay surveys of the
pipeline corridor.
Condition 10 states that the structure shall be removed and the area
to filling the spatial gaps in coverage of freshwater
information between monitoring points, says NIWA
environmental modeller Dr Doug Booker.
NIWA has recently released a free app – NZ River Maps
(https://shiny.niwa.co.nz/nzrivermaps/) – that uses these
model predictions to show patterns across New Zealand’s
rivers in about 100 attributes covering hydrology, water
quality, fish distributions, invertebrate metrics, suspended
and deposited sediment and fish and bird habitat.

Predator-Free Taranaki
It’s important to determine what
predators are where before placing
traps. A number of schools have
been tracking and mapping
predators around their school
grounds and local bush using
tracking tunnels, chew cards and
wax tags. Some students have even
made their own monitoring gear.
No shortage of rats, mice and
hedgehogs have been detected.
