3.3.5 Soil Removed from the Tank Pit
As a precautionary measure, approximately 100 cubic meters of potentially impacted soil was removed from Tank Pit 3
and stockpiled on site along with material from the other tank pits (see Section 6 for further discussion). Samples
TP3/1 and TP3/9 represent this material.
4.0 Stratigraphy and Hydrogeology
The NZ Geological Survey Map (Sheet 10) map of the area (G.J Lensen, 1959) shows that the site is underlain with
basal conglomerate,
management and
administration.

18. The plant accepts a range of organic waste and drilling by-products in
accordance with the resource consent conditions. Through the process of
composting and vermiculture, these waste material inputs are converted into
soil conditioner and organic fertiliser.

which this simplified objective are referenced in a more nuanced manner
should be in the topic chapters (i.e., where and how “protected, restored,
improved and or sustained” is selected as the appropriate approach for a
given resource). This would be outlined in the relevant topic chapter’s
objectives, policies, rules and other methods (e.g., through the mapping of
sites and areas, and in assessment criteria). These aspects can be
addressed in detail in future hearings on

river segments in an FMU, rather than a specific monitoring site.
FMU-based baseline states (expressed as percentages of stream lengths) for the macroinvertebrate numeric
attribute states are shown in Table 6. Maps of stream widths under each NOF band for all three numeric
attribute states are in Figure 9, Figure 10 and Figure 11.

smaller fragments be linked to create
corridors or stepping stones (for instance
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.

sand at the
pit bases (approximately 4-5 m below surface). Average annual rainfall for the site is 1,023 mm (taken from
the nearby ‘Duffy’ monitoring station). As with the other South Taranaki coastal sites, this site is subject to
strong winds.
