Area 1 – Archey’s Frog Specific Conditions Advice Note: Condition 30 of this consent specifies a consent limit for allowable vibration within Area 1. That condition limits the vibration from the authorised activity to the levels which were assumed when assessing the potential effects of the activity on Archey’s frogs. The conditions below are those considered appropriate to avoid, remedy, mitigate or offset effects on Archey's frogs assuming vibration is managed in accordance with Condition 30. Wharekirauponga Animal Pest Management Area 154 The Consent Holder shall undertake pest management over an area of at least 632 hectares in the Wharekirauponga Animal Pest Management Area (WAPMA) shown in the figure annexed as Attachment 6 to this consent.
