dryness in eastern areas and more rain in the west. In winter, the winds tend to blow more from the south,
causing colder temperatures across the country. In spring and autumn, south westerly winds are more

During La Niña events northeasterly winds tend to become more common, bringing moist, rainy conditions
to north eastern areas of the North Island and reduced rainfall to the lower and western South Island.

bathing’ in NZ would be considered ‘good – acceptable for bathing’ under European standards. It is not possible to maintain micro-organisms at very low levels all of the time in all water bodies, but the investment by local communities in upgraded sewage collection and treatment systems, and by farmers fencing and planting streambanks to control stock access and reduce pasture runoff go a long way to improving water quality in Taranaki. During heavy rain and high flows many rivers can be dangerous and
Waiongana River systems. The total catchment area is approximately 6.1 km2. The length
of the catchment, from the headwaters between Paraite and Corbett Roads to the sea at Bell Block beach, is
approximately five kilometres.
The industrial area at Bell Block is situated mid-catchment (Figure 1). Historically, the industrial areas were
located predominantly on the western side of the stream however, ongoing development since 2016 has
resulted in more sites on the eastern side. These sites fall
These legal submissions are made on behalf of Taranaki Regional Council (TRC)
and address the following questions that have arisen during the hearing:
(a) Does the existing environment include the effects of the existing consent?
(b) Is it open to the hearing panel to apply a permitted baseline?
(c) Does the proposed activity fall within Rule 52 of the Regional Air Quality
Plan for Taranaki (RAQP)?
(d) Is possible future residential zoning of the surrounding area part of the
whitewater activities below the tailrace
from flow variability.
In response to those concerns, this assessment concludes that:

Effects on whitewater opportunities in the residual reach of the Waiwhakaiho River due to the
continued operation of the Scheme are minimal. Kayaking amenity in the mainstem of the
Waiwhakaiho River depends on high flows (20m3/s +) associated with recent rain events.

1.3 Resource consents
1.3.1 Water abstraction permit (groundwater)
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 categories set out in Section 14.
The Council determined that the application to take groundwater fell within Rule 49 of
the Regional Freshwater Plan for Taranaki
nautical miles offshore to include the waters of the territorial sea. There are three district councils within the region — New Plymouth, Stratford and South Taranaki district councils. The area of Stratford district to the east of Pohokura Saddle falls into Manawatu-Whanganui (Horizons) region. Taranaki can offer residents and visitors the opportunity to surf and ski on the same day. Taranaki consists of four distinctive landforms, each of which requires a different type of environmental management.
aerobic ponds were also observed to be in
good condition. Discharge from the pond system to the Tawhiti Stream was sampled on two separate
occasions (July and March), along with the receiving waters. No visual environmental impacts downstream
of the discharge point to the Tawhiti Stream were observed.
Effluent collection points within the piggery were viewed during all inspections. They were found to be in
good condition, with no signs of spills or overflows even after heavy prolonged rain
