environment.
10.5.1 An activity within the areas shown on Map 10.1 as Area A or Area B, which involves any one or
more of:
(a)
the use of land for:
i. the excavation of material;
ii. the deposition of material onto or into land or into groundwater, and any associated discharge
into groundwater;
iii. vegetation clearance or earthworks within the riparian margin (defined for the purposes of
this rule as any land within 10 metres of the bed of a river, lake or wetland boundary);
iv. the installation and use of building foundations;
(b)
the discharge of sediment-laden water generated from earthworks into a surface waterbody,
or onto or into land where it may enter a surface waterbody; and
(c)
the taking of water for the purposes of dewatering or land drainage, and the associated
discharge of that water into a surface waterbody, or onto or into land where it may enter a
surface waterbody;
is a permitted activity, provided the following conditions, as applicable, are met:
Earthworks, deposition and excavation of material
1.
Erosion and sediment control measures are implemented and maintained throughout the
duration of the works to minimise erosion and the discharge of sediment laden water to surface water;
or onto or into land where it may enter surface water.

Reasons
2.
Any material deposited into groundwater, or onto or into land within 1 metre of groundwater
shall only be previous in situ material from the same location, uncontaminated fill (soil, rocks, gravels,
sand, silt, clay), concrete, cement, grout, steel or timber foundation piles, or inert building materials.
3.
Earthworks involving below ground soil disturbance do not occur on any area which is
identified as a landfill.
4.
There is no discharge of any cement, concrete, grout, or water containing cement, grout, or
concrete, into any surface waterbody, or beyond the property boundary.
Geotechnical investigations
5.
The bore is used only for the purposes of geotechnical investigations and is decommissioned
by filling with clean material and compacted or sealed at the surface to prevent contaminants entering
the bore.
6.
Information on location, bore logs and intended uses is submitted to the Canterbury Regional
Council within 20 working days of drilling the bore.
Dewatering, sediment-laden water and land drainage
7.
For Area A, the discharge is only sediment and water;
8.
The taking and discharge of land drainage water and the site dewatering water onto or into
land or into surface water does not result in river bed or river bank erosion.
9.
The discharge shall not result in any of the following:
a.
The production of conspicuous oil or grease films, scums or foams, or floatable or suspended
materials;
