Trustpower holds water permit 0489-2 to cover the damming and diversion of the
Patea River from Lake Rotorangi through the intake and spillways. This permit was
issued by the Council on 25 June 2009 under Section 87(e) of the RMA, and following
appeal, commenced on 17 December 2010. Trustpower
after
intense rainfall on 19 and 20 June resulted in
widespread flooding and slips and severe
disruptions to roading and electricity networks
throughout Taranaki. A Civil Defence State Of
Emergency was declared at 9pm on Saturday
20 June, and remained in place for a week.
The heaviest rain was in inland South Taranaki
but throughout the region, about 60 local roads
were blocked by slips and washouts and in at
least one case, repairs are expected to take
growth of multiple species and approaching acute
impact level for sensitive species at higher concentrations).
The national bottom line sits between bands B and C.
For nitrate, all 15 sites monitored in Taranaki achieved
national bottom lines, with all but three falling in band A
for both the annual median and 95th percentile measures.
The sites in band B were in mid and lower parts of southern
ring plain catchments, which are areas of more intensive

When compared to criteria set out in the National Objectives
Framework (NOF), Lake Rotorangi falls within band B for

within the bands A to C.
Where the A to C grading is not achieved, the causes are
generally natural and thus exempt from national bottom line
