Significant deteriorations in black disc clarity were recorded at two sites, one of which
reflected historical erosion events in the headwaters.
The most improvement in long term water quality has been illustrated in the Waingongoro River at SH 45,
with significantly improving trends in DRP and total phosphorus, and with reduction in nitrate and total
nitrogen by slightly less than the rate defined as significant. This improvement has been coincident with
land-irrigation of a major industrial
development of the
region’s resources.

Using the industry-standard nutrient budgeting
model ‘Overseer’ to impose nutrient caps could
impose very high costs on the dairy industry in
Taranaki, to the detriment of the regional and
national economies. And the clear environmental
benefits would be uncertain and at present
unknowable. The inaccuracy rate for Overseer in
Taranaki is significantly higher than
utilisation, to move closer to achieving sustainable development of the region’s resources.

1.3.2 Water abstraction permit (groundwater)
Section 14 of the Act stipulates that no person may take, use, dam or divert any
water, unless the activity is expressly allowed for by resource consent or a rule in a
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
