sampled on one occasion by the Council (site I1). This sampling was undertaken for two reasons, to estimate the nutrients (total nitrogen and phosphorus) being discharged to land (and consequently not directly to the Kahouri Stream), and to determine compliance with consent conditions, specifically the restriction on the sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of the discharge, which is intended to prevent soil losing its structure. If irrigation water with a high SAR is applied to a soil for years, the

More research is needed to find out where these connections may exist in Taranaki and the significance of any impacts from groundwater nutrient contributions in surface water systems. • Storing hazardous substances under cover, and on a sealed pad above ground • Correctly using pesticides and fertiliser to prevent leaching • Disposing of waste to appropriate recycling or landfill facilities • Spreading effluent onto land at a rate soil and plants can

As soon as practicable (but no later than 3 months) after the activity ends debris, materials, and equipment relating to the activity must be removed from the site and the site must be free from litter. * the size
