sedimentary rock is softer than the laharic material of the ring plain coast.
There are a number of small estuaries at the mouths of Taranaki’s larger rivers. These
estuaries are well flushed, with little diversity in the way of intertidal and subtidal habitats.
Sedimentation has a major influence on the region’s estuaries, the factors behind which
include rain fall and modified land use. The large number of rivers and the erosion of
Mount Taranaki generally bring a lot of sediment to

The discharge records indicated that all discharges had occurred when the river flow was above the
consented 5 m³/s.
The Waiongana Stream hydrology displays a natural rapid rise and fall (typical of Taranaki ring plain
streams) which allows for a limited window of opportunity when treated wastewater can be discharged
above the minimum consent limit. The consent holder has access to the
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. Permits authorising the abstraction of water are issued by the Council
under Section 87(d) of the RMA.
Water discharge permits
Section 15(1)(a) of the RMA stipulates that no person may discharge any contaminant into water, unless the
activity is expressly allowed for by a resource consent or a rule in a regional plan, or by national regulations.

Policy 1 of the NZCPS identifies the extent and
characteristics of the coastal environment. Of
note the coastal environment extends beyond
the coastal marine area (that part of the
environment regulated via that Coastal Plan)
and may include parts of rivers and streams
with significant coastal processes, influences or
qualities. Such areas also fall under the scope
of the Freshwater Plan.

of investment required to return the road to a “reasonable track” standard.
One option put forward is to set up a trust as part of the Whangamomona
