water, unless the activity is expressly allowed for by a resource consent or a rule in a
regional plan, or it falls within some particular categories set out in Section 14.
TTR holds water permit 7470-1.1 to cover the take and use of groundwater from a bore
for:
watering of racing tracks and general purposes at the TTR Club;
filling of water tanks for watering of New Plymouth District Council (NPDC)
owned gardens; and
other general purposes
domestic supply before being pumped to a
nearby reservoir. The water supply is reticulated to approximately 2,300 separate
customers.
The water filters are backwashed at least once a day using treated water. These
backwashes are discharged into a large settling pond that was previously a reservoir
for the water supply prior to treatment. The outlet from the pond is an inverted pipe
located at the opposite end of the pond from the inlet. The discharge from the pond
emerges from a pipe to fall
accumulations of lahar, debris avalanche and air fall
deposits from the volcanic centres, interbedded with river and swamp deposits.
Coherent lava bodies occur in close proximity to the volcanic centres but are not
represented in the volcanic deposits beyond the Egmont National Park boundary.
As a whole, the volcanics are complex in architecture and contain a range of aquifer
types includeding unconfined, semi-confined, confined and perched aquifers.
Aquifers are typically anisotropic and ash
radioactive materials.
Users of radioactive material are required to obtain a licence (see
http://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1965/0023/latest/DLM373117.html), and
importers/exporters are required to obtain a consent (see
http://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1965/0023/latest/DLM373115.html). These requirements
can however be exempted if the material falls below certain thresholds. The criteria
for exemption are set out in the Radiation Protection Regulations (see
by a resource consent or a rule in a regional plan, or it falls within some particular
categories set out in Section 14.
The Company holds three permits to abstract water.
1.3.1.1 Waingongoro River
The Company holds water permit 0596-3 to take water from the Waingongoro River for operation of an
AUP. This consent was issued by the Council on 31 August 2012 under Section 87 (d) of the RMA. It is due
to expire on 1 June 2035.

The resource consents are subject to conditions on abstraction and discharge rates, effluent compositions
and receiving water effects, and implementation of management plans. There is provision of six-yearly
reviews of resource consent conditions from 1 June 2023.
Water abstraction permit
Section 14 of the RMA stipulates that no person may take, use, dam or divert any water, unless the activity
is expressly allowed for by a resource consent or a rule in a regional plan, or it falls within

accordance with permitted activities requirements.
This consent is required to manage the discharge of contaminants from the site as the stockholding area falls
within 50 m of a farm drain. The associated feedpad is going to be used throughout the winter period. This
will reduce nutrient runoff to waterways during winter as more effluent will be captured by the feedpad and
delivered to the effluent
