A study of coastal processes and hazards on a section of the South Canterbury coastline for a proposed for an ocean outfall for effluent disposal from a dairy processing plant.
This report presents results from a study of coastal processes and hazards on a section of the South Canterbury coastline, at Waimate Creek just south of Wainono Lagoon, where Fonterra Ltd have proposed an ocean outfall for effluent disposal related to planned expansion of their milk processing plant at Studholme. The overall aim study was to assess the effects of the outfall installation and operation on the local shore morphology and position, in the context of existing shoreline movement trends and as complicated by future sea-level rise and climate change effects.
Scope:
(a) a literature review,
(b) assessment of existing shoreline management along the project shore,
(c) an updated analysis of shoreline stability,
(d) field inspections of the proposed outfall site at Waimate Creek and of the Clandeboye outfall that was installed north of Timaru in 2005,
(e) assessment of sea flooding by wave overtopping and storm surge and assessment of Tsunami hazard on the project and
(f) assessment of effects on the project shore of predicted rises in sea-level and changes in wave-climate.
The assessment of project effects included:
(a) advice/recommendations on outfall design and construction issues relating to coastal process
(b) assessment of project effects on shore processes, stability, and flooding hazard during and post construction, and
(c) mitigation and monitoring recommendations during and post construction.

- Purpose
- To undertake a study of coastal processes and hazards on a section of Waimate coastline just south of Wainono Lagoon and inform on the design and resource consent applications for a proposed ocean outfall for effluent disposal related to planned expansion of Fonterra’s milk processing plant at Studholme, South Canterbury.

- Hicks, M., Hoyle, J., Bind, J. (NIWA). Funded by Fonterra Ltd. ECan provided data on beach profile monitoring, use of LiDAR data co-funded by ECan and Meridian Energy Ltd. and the description of issues and plans relating to coastal drainage in the Waihao-Wainono area. Jo Stapleton provided a copy of her Master’s thesis. ECan and NIWA provided information on the Tsunami hazard. NIWA provided the wave hindcast modelling records, the Lyttelton sea-level records, and the synthetic historical sea-level records.
