Water must be taken from the lawful take point of the water permit associated with the meter. 2.3.8.3. The instantaneous rate of the take must not exceed a rate 10% greater than that authorised by the associated water permit. 2.3.8.4. The period in which water can be taken for this purpose must not exceed 120 minutes. 2.3.8.5. Water must not be taken during any restriction that applies to the associated water permit. 2.3.8.6. The calibration must be carried out by a recognised professional and full test results must be supplied to the Council within10 working days. 2.3.9. Take of water for the purposes of completing a bore test required to determine the yield of a bore and interference effects on other users. 2.3.9.1. The instantaneous rate of the take must not exceed 100l/s. 2.3.9.2. The total take must not occur for greater than 120 hours within any 30 day period. 2.3.9.3. The take must not be from a Water Resource Unit with a Natural State water quality classification, or a Significant Wetland. 2.3.10. Take and use of water for road or river control construction works up to 50m per 3 day per construction site. 2.3.10.1. Where the take is from a river, except an ephemerally flowing river, the instantaneous take rate must not exceed 5% of river flow at any time. 2.3.10.2. The take must not occur on more than 90 days within any 12 month period. 2.3.10.3. The take must not be from a Water Resource Unit with a Natural State water quality classification, or a Significant Wetland. 2.3.10.4.

The take must not cause the water level of the wetland to decrease by greater than one metre, as measured relative to a fixed reference point. 2.3.12.3. The instantaneous rate of the take must not exceed 20l/s. 2.3.12.4. Each take must be recorded, including the wetland water level before and after water is taken, the volume of water taken and the duration of the take. The records of all takes during each ski season must be provided to the Council by 1 December of the same year, or at other times when requested. 2 – 5
