Northland Strategic Irrigation Infrastructure Study Northland Strategic Irrigation Infrastructure Study Aqualinc Gain Canterbury Regional Council Approval Aqualinc have been accredited by CRC and are now an approved supplier of data logger and telemetry technology and an authorized data service provider. The recording, collection and reporting of data is a fast moving sector of the water industry. Gaining this CRC approval is an important step in being able to actively contribute to helping the irrigation industry manage water more effectively. Measuring water use is becoming a legal obligation. CRC have started the process of getting meters on water takes. In recent years this has been a condition of resource consents issued in Canterbury. Despite this, the majority of water takes do not yet have water meters installed. PREPARED FOR: CRC also began their large scale push to ensure they know how much groundwater is being pumped, Northland Regional Council with water metering being part of the Rakaia Selwyn consent review process. Following that review, the CRC plan was to review consents in other groundwater allocation zones and, through that process, add conditions that require water meters and data loggers. The CRC consent reviews will still take place to mitigate the effects shallow bores may have on streams and to add seasonal volumes. PREPARED BY: REVIEWED BY: However, the Government has stepped in with regulations that require the installation of water meters. This does not only affect Canterbury. Most water takes throughout New Zealand will have to Chris Frost - Opus comply.Stephen McNally - Opus The regulation requires that by July 2012 all takes greater than 20l/s must be metered, by July 2014 Louise Algeo - Opus all takesKel greater Sandersonthan 10l/s must be metered and by July- 2016BERL all takes greater than 5l/s are to be metered. Sheryl Paine - Opus ThereIan are three typesMcIndoe of commonly used flow -meters Aqualinc ‐ electromagnetic, mechanical and ultra‐sonic. Electromagnetic flow meters are the most reliable and have the longest time between calibrations. Mechanical meters are cheaper, but will wear out faster as they have moving parts.

  • 11 Groundwater Resources
    11 GROUNDWATER RESOURCES Summary Objectives • Maintain groundwater quantity and quality to the extent that the use of the groundwater resources is sustainable. Pressures • There are currently 3747 bores registered with the council and 279 resource consents to take groundwater in Northland, which equates to a volume of 49,602 m3 of groundwater per day. This places a large demand on Northland’s groundwater resources. • Poorly constructed and maintained bores can result in groundwater contamination. • Changes in land use can not only result in an increase in the quantity of water taken from an aquifer but can also influence the amount of rainfall infiltrating into the aquifer (recharge) and groundwater quality. • The change in rainfall trends and temperature as a result of climate change is likely to result in decreased recharge to groundwater resources, and increased potential for saltwater intrusion in coastal aquifers. State • Due to the varying geology in Northland, there are a large number of aquifers scattered throughout the region. These aquifers include large sand and shell bed systems such as the Aupouri Peninsula to small alluvial aquifers such as Russell. • Groundwater quality at the majority of monitored sites meets the Drinking Water Standards for New Zealand 2005 (MoH 2005). The highest percentage of non- compliance with the drinking water standards for bacteria occurs in many of the coastal areas and in three of the volcanic aquifers: Ruatangata, Maunu and Maungakaramea. • The majority of sites that exceed the guidelines for manganese and iron are fed from sand and gravel aquifers, while all sites monitored meet the guideline for nitrate.
