A very shallow earthquake (5 km deep or less) of magnitude M2 might produce a maximum
intensity for the closest people of up to MM4. This would be equivalent in its effect to that of
someone sitting in a house when a large truck drove past on a road outside. There would be
an intensity of MM3 within the adjacent area. The minimum magnitude for an earthquake to
possibly be damaging is M4-5, which is 1,000 to 30,000 times more
likely to have
significant effects on water quality in the Patea River in the event of a discharge.
2.3 Results of spawing survey in the Konini Stream
To assess fish pass effectiveness a triennial fish survey (trout) upstream and
downstream of the weir as a way was undertaken on 8 July 2014. This survey coincided
with the spawning period. A single adult brown trout was seen in the reach between

Cardiff Road and the weir. The weir and fish pass looked in
caked crystalline material.
The District Council immediately removed the drum remnants, the chemical residue and
approximately 80 m3 of excavated soil and rubbish to the Colson Road Regional landfill,
which is a secure landfill operated by the District Council. The excavation site was
secured while the samples were analysed by AssureQuality for chlorophenols, a multi-
residue screen and the dioxin2,3,7,8-TCDD1.
One sample contained high concentrations of tetrachlorobenzene

wellsites within the Company’s oil and gas fields; the Manutahi-B and Manutahi-D wellsites,
located at the end of Lower Ball Road in South Taranaki. The resource consents held by the Company permit
the discharge of a range of fluids by DWI, including heated water and produced water. The consents include

petroleum within an
area of 90.4 km2. The Waitui wellsite is one of many sites within this area that have
been established in order to explore, evaluate and produce hydrocarbons.
The Waitui wellsite is located 150 m down a gravel track off Rimutauteka Road,
more than 15 km by road from Inglewood and Lepperton, as per Figure 1. The
wellsite was originally established in 1993 and involved the removal of topsoil to
create a firm level platform on which to erect a drilling rig and house associated
Council (the Council) on the monitoring programme associated with resource
consents held by TAG Oil (NZ) Limited. During this period, a wellsite was
established with one well drilled, side-tracked, plugged and abandoned.

One of the intents of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA) is that environmental
management should be integrated across all media, so that a consent holder's use of
water, air, and land should be considered from a single
effectively providing advice on consenting
obligations and processing applications.
