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.
25. Likewise the TRC in its assessment of the Application appears to make a similar error of
omission to conclude that the consent application falls
introduced to the litter
resulting in greater chance of odours; and
(iii) It has less wear on the building as the air is balanced and seals are
not put under pressure continuously;
(i) Water consumption is alarmed, so that any irregularities in water usage is
automatically flagged up to on duty staff;
(j) Use of nipple drinkers to avoid water falling on litter. Constant monitoring of
water usage to avoid leakage or overflow, and audits 4-5 times daily to detect
instability of the volcano since monitoring became possible in 2014.

From the regional perspective, for seismic surveys within the CMA, most regional coastal
plans are silent on provisions for the activity, one would suspect because, until recently,
no offshore seismic surveys have been proposed for their respective CMAs and hence, at
the time of writing the current plans, crystal ball gazing did not extend to that activity.
As a consequence, seismic surveys fall within the default categorisation of discretionary
or, in some cases,
confirm what stage each project is at before a decision can be
made about this. Education for active modes (Let’s Go) now falls under
Road Safety. The question was raised should road safety promotion still
be an itemised project or fall under BAU? It was noted the LED
streetlight conversions can be removed from the list with further projects
possibly coming out of the SHIP. Some improvements for SH43 have
been included under Minor Improvements with DP advising it needs to
remain on the Wish
redistributed it as an apron, known as a ringplain. In addition,
significant volumes of ash and tephra were deposited on the ringplain area during
these successive volcanic events.
The drainage capacity of the soils within the ringplain area is variable due to the
variations in soil depositional sequence and structure. In different areas of the
ringplain the effects of erosional deposition and ash fall can vary. Laharic deposition
is more prevalent on the western side of the ringplain,
before being pumped to a nearby
reservoir. The water supply is reticulated to approximately 2,300 separate customers.
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

Water abstraction permits
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 some particular
