river mouths, particularly along the southern
coastline, where dune fields extend inland for several kilometres. Less than 2% of the
Taranaki region is classified as coastal sand country. Because of their weak structure,
these soils are susceptible to wind erosion if the vegetation cover is disturbed.
2.1.4 Coastal environment
The Taranaki coastline is exposed to the west, and as a consequence, high energy
wave and wind conditions dominate the coastal environment. There are few areas
wind around.” [http://www.stuff.co.nz/taranaki-daily-

In a five week period alone in 2010, there were 24 complaints about the smell coming from the Remediation

A site visit was made to conduct a compliance monitoring inspection and to take
PM10 and methane readings. The weather was fine with strong north west wind and
2 mm rain over the previous 48 hours.
The compost area was tidy and organised and no noticeable odours were detected on
the compost pad. A litter fence had been erected along the length of the compost
ponds.
Refuse was being tipped and spread at the time of the inspection and the tip face

We must also consider how future
developments in technology will affect
us and our customers. Technologies
such as solar and wind generation,
battery storage and electric vehicles are
becoming mainstream. With sustained
research and development in Asia, the
United States and Europe, we anticipate
that distributed generation (battery
storage and electric vehicles) will

dam which uses the supply of water in the lake
for electricity generation.
Below the dam, the Pātea River winds its
course through hill country forest and farm
land, its flow regulated somewhat by the
upstream hydro scheme. About 4km from the
coast, tidal influences begin and increase with
the appearance of soft muds, saltmarsh and
rushlands. As the river nears the coast it flows
through the Pātea township where a meat works and
