Monitoring of groundwater and leachate in relation to the old landfill area off Bewley Road
showed that with exception of one ammoniacal nitrogen result, all of the samples collected
from the three monitoring bores complied with consent limits.
There were three unauthorised incidents recorded that were associated with the consents
covered by this report, one of which resulted in an infringement notice
compliance with consent limits for the major constituents of the
discharge including zinc concentration, pH level, suspended solids, and oil and grease
concentrations. Elevated zinc concentrations were recorded upstream and downstream of the
Taranaki Galvanizer’s discharge. However, zinc concentrations recorded complied with
consent limits. The historical disposal of galvanising waste materials into a bore on the
Galvanizer’s site is considered to be the most likely source of zinc contamination in
concentrations were recorded in the receiving waters upstream and downstream
of the Company’s discharge. However, zinc concentrations recorded complied with consent
limits. The historical disposal of galvanising waste materials into a bore on the Company’s site
is considered to be the most likely source of zinc contamination in the unnamed tributary.
Results from the current monitoring period suggest that zinc levels continue to remain
relatively stable.
In the reported period, no effect of emissions

In Taranaki, contaminants disposed of by DWI are generally limited to produced
water, saline groundwater, contaminated stormwater, waste drilling fluids, hydraulic
fracturing fluids, and production sludges. The Council has approved, on specific
occasions, the discharge of small volumes of other specified contaminants by DWI. Any
application to discharge waste material not specifically licenced by the relevant
resource consent is
overlying freshwater zones, providing a
multi-barrier approach to the protection of freshwater resources. As part of the
resource consent application procedure for DWI activities, applicants are required to
submit information that details both the design and construction specifications of the
injection well(s) and illustrates well integrity and the isolation of the well bore from
surrounding formations.

improvement in the Company’s environmental performance is therefore desirable due to non-
compliance issues. Additional work at the site is anticipated to remedy this situation before
the next sampling in spring 2015.

From the reservoir, the treated water returns to the treatment plant where a booster pump
drives it into the Midhirst reticulation system at an acceptable mains pressure. A large storage tank onsite
acts as a reservoir for firefighting.
1.2.3 Toko water supply
The Toko rural water supply was originally the water supply for the former Toko dairy factory. Water is
pumped from a bore to a small shed where it is chlorinated and then filtered. After it has been filtered, the
water is pumped to …
