  • A Report Commissioned by the Waitangi Tribunal for the Taranaki
    A Report Commissioned by the Waitangi Tribunal for the Taranaki Claim (Wai 143) Concerning Kumara Kaiamo Pa and Associated Lands of Ngati Mutunga at Urenui by Brian Bargh December 1995 Any conclusions drawn or opinions expressed are tltose of tlte writer Introduction Ngati Mutunga are an iwi descended from the original inhabitants of the Urenui area who had merged with people who arrived on the Tokomaru waka in about 1350 AD.I Their tribal area is in northern Taranaki centred on Urenui (see Figure 1). Their grievance is that their land was confiscated in the 1860s by the Crown contrary to the Treaty ofWaitangi. They presented evidence to this effect to the Waitangi Tribunal in 1991 and had prepared a report at that time on their claim. Ngati Mutunga in their evidence raised the question of their pa at Urenui known as Kumara Kaiamo. They claim that this is an important wahl tapu and that it was confiscated by the Crown and never returned.2 The purpose of this report is to investigate claims made by Ngati Mutunga regarding Kumara Kaiamo pa in order that the Waitangi Tribunal can determine whether or not the Crown was in breach of Treaty principles with respect to the alienation of that land. The Waitangi Tribunal commission for this report is attached as Appendix I. The N gati Mutunga Claim Ngati Mutunga are joint claimants with other Taranaki hapu in Waitangi Tribunal claim Wai 143. Their claim is in essence that the Crown breached the Treaty ofWaitangi by firstly using the military to attack Taranaki Maori in order to obtain their land and later enacting the NZ Settlements Act 1863 which provided for the confiscation of land of any Maori who was deemed to be in rebellion.

NPDC holds resource consents to allow it to discharge septic tank treated sewage to groundwater via infiltration trenches at each of the motor camps. This report for the period July 2016 to June 2017 describes the monitoring programme implemented by the Taranaki Regional Council (the Council) to assess NPDC’s environmental performance during the period under review. The report also details the results of the monitoring undertaken and assesses the environmental effects of NPDC’s activities. NPDC holds one resource consent per beach camp, each of which has five special conditions setting out the requirements that NPDC must satisfy. During the monitoring period, NPDC demonstrated an overall high level of environmental performance. The Council’s monitoring programme for the year under review included three inspections per motor camp. One of these inspections included routine bacteriological sampling at four sites at Urenui and five sites at Onaero. An additional two samples were also collected at Onaero, in connection with the elevated faecal indicator bacteria counts recorded in the Onaero River in recent years. The two additional sampling sites were included to differentiate any potential effects of the pump station on the water quality of the river, from the effects of the unnamed tributary and effluent ponds further upstream.
