Stream, and involves defences along this stream as well as the Waiwhakaiho River itself. It was upgraded in a three-year project that ended in 2013, to offer protection against a flood flow of 1180 cubic meters per second. In 2010 this was determined to be the ‘one in 100-year’ flood (that is, a flood that has a 1% chance of occurring in any one year). An additional upgrade in early 2024 has provided further protection through allowing for uncertainties associated with climate change prediction and

If you want to take water for any other purpose and/or you need greater volumes, you will need a resource consent. National water metering provisions may also apply. Talk to Council consents staff about your options. In the Stony River catchment there is a limit on the total amount of water that can be taken out of the river or its
