B-1 - Area 1, Coromandel Forest Park – Assessment of Environmental Effects 81 5.12 LIGHTING EFFECTS An assessment of effects on the surrounding environment from artificial lighting associated with the WNP is provided in Pederson Read (2022), a copy of which is provided in Part H of these application documents. The majority of the WUG site will be below ground, such that artificial lighting effects will not be visible externally. There may be some limited construction related lighting associated with the establishment of the vent shafts within the CFP. Any such lighting will be temporary only, within an isolated forested area, with negligible effects on the surrounding environment. Pederson Read consider the effects of the activity have been adequately managed through the project design and no additional measures to remedy or mitigate effects are required. 5.13 HISTORIC HERITAGE EFFECTS An assessment of the potential effects of the WNP on historic heritage values is provided in Clough (2022), a copy of which is provided in Part H of these application documents. The ventilation shafts near the Wharekirauponga orebody are located to the south of the known heritage features associated with the Royal Standard Battery and Mining Complex T12/681, and therefore these shafts will not affect these areas. No other archaeological or historic heritage features were identified at the proposed locations of the ventilation raise and shafts near the Wharekirauponga orebody. Clough (2022) considers the effects of the activity have been adequately managed through the project design and no additional measures to remedy or mitigate effects are required. It is noted that, while Clough (2022) has not identified archaeological or historic heritage values within the project area that would be affected by the proposed works, OGNZL will implement an accidental discovery protocol across all WNP sites. 5.14 EFFECTS FROM THE STORAGE AND USE OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES The activity will include the storage and use of explosives, oxidising and toxic substances, fuels, maintenance oils and greases at the surface facilities area and within the underground mine. An assessment of the potential effects resulting from these activities is provided in Tonkin and Taylor (2022a), a copy of which is provided in Part H of these application documents.
