public use can
degrade the values associated with the site – little can or should be done to promote
coastal public access. Six (or 21%) of the coastal areas of local or regional significance
having poor public access fall within these two categories.
• For the two remaining limiting factors, these being lack of formal access or poorly
defined public access, more could be done to improve public access. Twenty-three (or
79%) of the coastal areas of local or regional significance having poor

Kauri-E: The ring drain was in need of redefining as some of the culverts were becoming blocked. An orange
layer of sludge was noted in the ring drain. This appeared to be iron oxide that had discharged onto site
from a neighbouring property. The pipe had since been disconnected. It was noted that a storage bund had
sand in the base that smelled of hydrocarbon when disturbed. The consent …
Taylor report has also avoided commenting on how controls should be enhanced
and where existing controls might become less effective under the new operation. In terms
of equipment that AFT have to mitigate effects of odour and dust, these are all based on
having birds contained within a negative pressure maintained enclosed space.

omission to conclude that the consent application falls

Filter backwash is discharged via a large pond. 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 over a
small waterfall. At the base of the waterfall the discharged water runs down a natural cobbled channel
beneath native riparian vegetation for approximately 10 metres
approximately 300 L/s of the
residual flow past the weir (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
