Results and Discussion
On the day that the nets were set, a localised rain event caused flows to increase in the Haehanga Stream.
This also resulted in the discharge of sediment-contaminated stormwater into the Haehanga Stream,
resulting in discolouration. Although discolouration is frequently noted in this catchment, the degree of
discolouration at sites 2 and 3 was
telemetered to the Council and reviewed for compliance.
During the period under review CCCWSL complied with the normal operational abstraction limit of 69L/s for
99.8% of the time. There was one occasion when CCCWSL was required to use its exceptional use limit of 79
L/s due to the reservoir levels falling below 80%. Figure 2 shows CCCWSL’s abstraction rate for the 2023/24
monitoring period.

I first saw it. I found a collection of
conifers as I wandered through the
gardens. One in particular caught my eye.
It’s bluey/green upright growth was
surrounded by horizontal growth – it’s
own “Christmas tree skirt”. Unfortunately
David Sampson wasn’t anywhere in sight
at that moment to enlighten me as to it’s
name.
As we boarded the minibus again,
large drops of rain began to fall, and
accompanied us back to the village of

1.3.2 Water abstraction permit (groundwater)
Section 14 of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA) stipulates that no person may
take, use, dam or divert any water, unless the activity is expressly allowed for by
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 (RFWP) as
appeared that the skimmer pit had recently
discharged, considering the volume of rain that had recently fallen it was likely that the skimmer pit still had
a leak. No effects were noted in the receiving waters downstream of the discharge point.

2.2.1 Inspections
31 August 2018
An inspection was conducted in fine weather with a cool easterly breeze. The cap was damp underfoot, with
minor ponding in multiple areas following heavy rain in the previous weeks. There was noticeable vehicle
damage in areas on the cap, mainly around the gateways. Of the four water troughs on the cap, two were
