regional plan, or it falls within some particular categories set out in Section 14.
The Council determined that the application to take groundwater fell within Rule 49
of the Regional Freshwater Plan for Taranaki (RFWP) as the rate and daily volume of
the groundwater abstraction might exceed that of the permitted activity (Rule 48).
Rule 49 provides for groundwater abstraction as a controlled activity, subject to two
conditions:
• The abstraction shall cause not more than a 10%
within some particular categories set out in Section 14.
Greymouth Petroleum Limited was unable to estimate the rate or volume at which
formation (produced) water might be taken during exploration, and might exceed
the limits of the permitted activity Rule [Rule 48 of the RFWP]. The taking of
groundwater therefore falls for consideration under Rule 49 of the RFWP as a
controlled activity.
The standards of Rule 49 require that:
• The abstraction shall cause not more than a 10%
