The forest is of a type that is classified as 'At Risk' in Taranaki and falls within 'Acutely
Threatened' Land Environment (LENZ) F5.2a. Remnants such as this provide important habitat for rare
and threatened species. The site also offers good connectivity to other nearby habitats, covenants and
Key Native Ecosystems in the area such as Mudfish 3 and the Ngaere Swamp Forest KNEs.

The forest remnant canopy is dominated by tawa with
irrigation in Taranaki does take place within Zones 2, 3, 4 and 5, which represents a
10 km wide belt of coastal land stretching from Oakura to Waitotara.
1.1.7 Irrigation systems
In general there are two types of irrigation methods; surface and pressurised. The majority of irrigation
systems currently in operation in the region fall in to the pressurised category. Pressurised systems can be
further differentiated based on the method of operation and equipment used. A summary of the systems

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
categories set out in Section 14. Permits authorising the abstraction of water are issued by the Council
under Section 87(d) of the RMA.

this coastal area is considered ’high energy’, and also that there is
only a very narrow strip of beach (at low tide only), any waters emerging from the cliff would be swiftly
mixed and dispersed. Any effects on groundwater quality or coastal water quality would be negligible. In
general, the creation of stable interlocked layers of green waste ensures that it does not fall off, or get
blown off the cliffs and down onto the coastal marine area or into the sea.

The results of sampling show little difference between the upstream and downstream sites with regard to
the parameters tested on the dates sampled, with the exception of total BOD. Variation between sampling
dates related largely to recent rain events in the catchment. As has been observed in some previous

“Certainly with the winter rains when the

than it used to be. There’s not the erosion
