Special condition 6 requires the consent holder to maintain the minimum dilution
rate at all times in the receiving water at point of discharge.
Special condition 7 requires the consent holder to monitor, maintain and supply
records of the discharge.
Special condition 8 requires riparian fencing and planting to be completed.
Discharge to land
Special conditions 9 and 10 limit effluent application rates to land
rate at all times in the receiving water at point of discharge.
Special condition 7 requires the consent holder to monitor, maintain and supply
records of the discharge.
Special condition 8 requires riparian fencing and planting to be completed.
Discharge to land
Special conditions 9 and 10 limit effluent application rates to land in terms of nutrient
loadings over any 12 month period.
Special conditions 11, 12 and 13 relate to areas and locations of land discharge,
the discharge.
Special condition 8 requires riparian fencing and planting to be completed.
Discharge to land
Special conditions 9 and 10 limit effluent application rates to land in terms of
nutrient loadings over any 12 month period.
Special conditions 11, 12 and 13 relate to areas and locations of land discharge,
prohibit discharges to surface water, and place restrictions on ponding.
Special condition 14 requires the consent holder to monitor and maintain records of
burial areas; water quality
and biological monitoring of the Inaha Stream and its tributaries, riparian management, and groundwater
surveys, and facilitates community engagement meetings.
The Council’s monitoring programme for the year under review included 6 inspections, 119 water samples
collected for physicochemical analysis, and two biomonitoring surveys of receiving waters. In addition, two
community meetings were also held. Hapu engagement had been on-going with the Company as part of
fertiliser application regimes is required to
minimise the risk of groundwater and surface water contamination with nitrates.
The implementation of riparian management plans, fencing and planting of riparian
margins can further reduce the potential for any nutrient rich runoff from irrigated
pasture entering surface water systems.

3. Vegetated: Areas of vegetation (in a natural state or managed, indigenous
and/or exotic) such as pasture, crops, forest and scrub, riparian margins
of streams, lakes and wetlands, stands of TREES, SHELTER-BELTS or
gardens.
4. Production Orientated: Land uses of a predominantly ‘production’ orientated
nature such as farming and related farm storage sheds, stock yards, farm
animals and houses
