Description: The Hutt Valley aquifer zone in the Wellington Harbour seabed mapped forthe Proposed Natural Resources Plan.This zone has been updated from the delineation that appears in the Regional Coastal Plan for the Wellington Region 2000. The delineation of the zone was recommended by Earth in Mind scientist, Mark Gyopari in a report to Greater Wellington Regional Council on the hydrogeology of the Hutt Valley aquifer zone. It is further supported by information from a side-scan multibeam bathymetric survey undertaken by NIWA in a consortium with Department of Conservation and Greater Wellington Regional Council that reveals the presence of freshwater springs and seeps across the whole Wellington Harbour seabed. Pallentin, A., Verdier, A. & Mitchell, J. (2009), Wellington Harbour Multi-Beam Survey. A report prepared for Department of Conservation and Greater Wellington Regional Council. NIWA client report WLG2009-38, 9p + maps and CD-ROM. Gyopari M. (2014). Conjunctive water management recommendations for the Upper and Lower Hutt groundwater management zones. Report to Greater Wellington Reginoal Council.

Description: Chapter 10 (Kapiti Coast Whaitua) contains Policies (KW.P1, KW.P2) and Rules (KW.R1-R4) for river and groundwater management that is mapped in section 11.3 of the Plan (Figures 10.1-10.3). This feature class and its companion layers show rivers with minimum flows and rivers and groundwater zones with allocation amounts. The numerical quantities for minimum flows and allocation amounts are given in Tables 10.1-10.3 and in Rule KW.R1. The policies (KW.P1, KW.P2) set out the criteria for identifying minimum flows and allocation amounts. The rationale for minimum flows, lake levels and allocation amounts with the relevant numerical limits are discussed in the following reports: Thompson, M.( 2014), Minimum flow recommendations for the Wellington region: Technical report to support the draft Regional Plan.Greater Wellington Regional Council, Publication No. GW/ESCI-T-14/62, Wellington.Thompson, M. & Mzila, D.
