CAWTHRON INSTITUTE | REPORT NO. 2505 MAY 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Marlborough District Council (MDC) is currently working through the process of reviewing its resource management planning. This report was commissioned to investigate issues relating to establishing appropriate flow monitoring points on the Wairau River to implement the flow sharing and rationing provisions set out in the current Wairau Awatere Resource Management Plan (WARMP) and achieve a relevant and meaningful environmental flow regime over the length of the Wairau River. Specification of flow regimes to maintain proper functioning of river ecosystems and related in-stream values require: A minimum flow to fulfil water quality and habitat requirements Allocation limits, or flow sharing rules, to maintain ecologically relevant flow variability and avoid long periods of flat-lining of the minimum flows.
