Deferred capital investment in infrastructure, such as the Falls Dam on the Manuherekia River, is likely to remain on hold while uncertainties around future minimum flow(s) of water bodies persist.33 In short, uncertainty around access to water and the reliability of future supply, is eroding business (farmer) confidence. [53] Meantime, PC7 not only impacts decisions requiring significant capital outlay, e.g. irrigation infrastructure and storage, but also less visible
catchment and a stream usage survey. In summary, it was concluded that there was minimal use of the stream for food-gathering or recreational purposes, and that the public health risk was minimal under heavy rain overflow conditions. The report made several recommendations (see TRC, 2014). Wet weather in April 2014, May 2014 and June 2014 raised pond levels but not to overflow levels indicating that work done to reduce stormwater infiltration and inflow had had a marked effect. No
sound state such that: a. They do not fall into a state of disrepair and continue to function effectively for the purpose they were designed; b. Their structural integrity is maintained; c. There is no settlement or loss of foundation material; and d. Erosion of the foreshore or seabed which has been demonstrated by monitoring to be a direct result of the rock revetment structure, is minimised as far as practicable. 19. Within 6 months of completion of the rock revetment
erosion was detected as a result of the recent rainfall events. Fish passage was difficult to assess due to the high flow of the stream at the time of inspection and this will subsequently be assessed in further inspections during low flow conditions. The inspection then focused on the air discharge portion of the consents held by the Company. The inspection found that a slight to moderate breeze was blowing. The weather was fine at the beginning of the inspection, however rain had set in
Inspections The site was inspected on two occasions in 2012-2013 period. The findings of the inspections are given below. 2.1.1 31 October 2012 A site visit was made to conduct a compliance monitoring inspection and to take water samples. The weather was fine with no rain over the previous 48 hours. No visual effects were noted in the stream during sampling and both samples were clear and had no odour. No leachate seepages or exposed refuse were observed and the cap was sound. The

some instances fall below the national bottom line for a number of attributes. Recent trends show a decline in the state of freshwater over the past ten years. Key challenges for Taranaki include: a. E. coli – we are currently falling well short of national swimmability targets, with 19 of the 22 (86%) river monitoring sites sitting within either band D or E. Modeling indicates that significant reductions in E. coli loads will be required to meet minimum standards and see
