and flow of the Ngatoro Stream at SH3. By using a correlation between these two sites, a calculated flow
can be estimated for the ‘Bushline. Based on this correlation, as shown in Figure 4 the flow did not fall below
the 134 L/s limit, so no restrictions were required to be put in place.

(constructed in 2002). The remaining residual flow passes through an old (and mostly
ineffective) fish pass on the true left bank of the weir.
Much of the scheme is monitored and operated remotely by the Company. Through an automated water
level sensor system, the Company can monitor the residual flows in the Manganui River and Mangaotea
Stream, water levels in the race and lake and how much rain is falling locally. This has allowed the Company
to manage race flows to minimise flooding, and has …

Iwi
There are eight recognised iwi whose ‘rohe’ or tribal area falls either
wholly or partially within the Taranaki region. The rohe of Ngati Ruanui,
Nga Ruahine, Taranaki, Te Atiawa and Ngati Mutunga are located
completely within the region. The rohe of Ngati Tama overlaps the
Waikato region to the north, and those of Ngati Maru and Nga Rauru
overlap the

even with MfE’s overly optimistic analysis, we will fall well short of what is required as a
national average under the NPS-FM. This is despite the fact that through the Taranaki
Riparian Management Programme the region is investing and doing far more than the
NPS-FM requires and doing more than many other regions in New Zealand.
Since 1995, the percentage of Taranaki’s ring plain streams fenced has risen from 50%
to 85%, and the percentage planted has risen

four benzene results were within ‘excellent’ MfE’s category and another two results fell within
the ‘good’ category.
The Council has previously undertaken BTEX monitoring in Taranaki region. The outcomes
of those previous BTEX studies were discussed in the “Air monitoring survey of
hydrocarbon compounds (BTEX) in the Taranaki Region” report which may be
