the same level of protection to
instream fauna across the full range of river/stream sizes. Following discussions with iwi and the Wai
Maori Group post the publication of the 2019 report, it was agreed that additional work was
required to test these assumptions in both small streams and large rivers.
Instream habitat surveys were initially carried out at sites on 12 Taranaki streams and rivers
(Kapoaiaia, Kaupokonui, Manganui, Mangaoraka, Patea, Tangahoe, Waingongoro (2 sites),

information on dioxins, historical soil investigations and international soil guidelines.
Taranaki Regional Council (Brian Calkin and Gary Bedford) assisted with the site selection
process by carrying out preliminary site inspections and interviewing owners. New
Plymouth District Council (René Laan) assisted with providing aerial photographs and
mapping information.
Initial drafts of this report were
water monitoring. The removal of hydrocarbon related products reduces

along streams or over ridges) that connect
larger bush areas? What does the
neighbour have by way of existing bush,
that could be connected?
For advice about layout, contact the
Council. A land management officer can
visit to assess the stand, and prepare a
conservation plan with a map showing
layout of the area to be retired, fence
positions and cost estimates.
