12.10.20 Radioactive materials; Rural Zone.

Any activity is a permitted activity if:
a) Radioactivity is below that specified as an exempt activity in the Radiation Protection Regulations 1982, or
b) Radioactive materials are confined to domestic appliances.
Controlled Activity if:
(a) radioactivity does not exceed 100 terabecquerels.
Discretionary Activity If:
(b) radioactivity exceeds 100 terabecquerels.
Where an activity is not permitted by this Rule, Council will have regard to the following matters when considering an application for resource consent:
i) The proposed site and layout, with a description of the nature and scale of the proposed facility and associated operations;
ii) Location, type and quantities of hazardous substances involved;
iii) Site drainage and off-site infrastructure (e.g. drainage type and capacity);
iv) Identification of on-site hazards, failure modes and exposure pathways from the proposed facility including a description of the environment potentially affected;
v) Transport of hazardous substances on and off the site, mode and route selection;
vi) The sensitivity of the surrounding human, natural and physical environment, and proposed measures to protect them (including wildlife habitats and water bodies);
vii) Separation distances from water bodies, coastal water, neighbouring activities and people potentially at risk from the hazardous facility, including consideration of the proximity to people-oriented activities (e.g. childcare, rest homes, hospitals);
viii) Potential cumulative or synergistic effects, within the site and the locality;
ix) Hazard and risk analysis;
x) Management of wastes containing hazardous substances;
xi) Proposed contingency measures and emergency plans;
xii) Proposed monitoring and maintenance schedules;
xiii) Any consultation, assessment or responses received from the New Zealand Fire Service;

Rule 13.10.22 Radioactive Materials; Residential Zone.

Any activity is a Permitted Activity if:
a) Radioactivity is below that specified as an exempt activity in the Radiation Protection Regulations 1982; or
b) Radioactive materials are confined to domestic appliances.
Controlled and Discretionary Activity Assessment Criteria.
