wide, and is shown in Figure 2. Patea Beach is an elevated site which for most of the time is dry. Rain that does fall on the site drains away at a very rapid rate. The site does not suffer from flooding from rain or tidal action, due to its elevation. Monitoring over the past four years noted no discharge of leachate or liquids from the base of the dune as a result of the discharge. page 4 Figure 1 Regional map showing the location of the Patea green waste site

approval and the environmental effects are minor, a decision on the application will be made by the Council’s Director-Resource Management. It’s important to note that although most applications fall into this ‘non-notified’ category, hundreds of parties are consulted by resource consent applicants in Taranaki each year. If the effects are more than minor or an affected party does not give written approval, the application will have to be notified. People may then make submissions on the application.
figure of 43mm of rainfall per hour will be utilised. This is a very conservative figure as values for the top 30 rain occurrences range from 8.0 to 15mm with the average being 9.4mm (refer Table 2). Runoff of the falling rain will be influenced by the site’s runoff coefficient. This has been calculated to be 0.25 as per MBIE Verification Method E1/VM1 (1 January 2017). Remediation (NZ) Ltd considers this coefficient to be a conservative runoff coefficient as the composting

million tonnes of soil. On residential properties nearest to the Dow plant, soil dioxin concentrations were typically in the range 5 to 15 ng/kg of soil, falling to a range of 1 to 5 ng/kg further out. One sample had a concentration of 27 ng/kg. There was 92 ng/kg measured at a non-residential site, on the west- facing slope of Mount Moturoa Domain. Generally there was little difference between soil dioxin levels in lawn areas compared with gardens on the same property.
out during fine weather following a period of heavy rain throughout the catchment. The influent screen was operating and wastes were fully contained. The main pond was dark green with a slightly turbid appearance. No odours were noted. Approximately 50 birds were present, the majority of which were mallard and teal ducks. Both wetland pond levels were normal. These were green/brown in colour and slightly turbid. The wetland sump pump was operating at the time of inspection. No surface
