The document outlines Auckland Council's plans for applying 1080 pest control in four water catchments. It discusses:
1) The catchments will be divided into two zones, with one zone disconnected from the water supply during 1080 application in that area.
2) Monitoring of the first zone will be conducted before reconnecting it to the water supply to ensure no 1080 is detected.
3) Protocols for pre-application water quality testing, source isolation, water quality sampling, and returning water sources to service after 1080 application have been developed and approved by health authorities.
4) Private water supplies will be addressed on a case-by-case basis, and alternative drinking water will be provided if needed.

KOUTOU. Auckland Council (The Council) How will 1080 be applied
Public Health Services conclude adequate to
safeguard public health and mitigate
reasonable and foreseeable risks to the public
from accidental exposure
Four water catchments divided into two zones
by water care, to allow for 1080 operation to
take place in one zone (note: the affected
zone is disconnected from the public water
supply), with continued water supply from
zone two where no 1080 operation is applied.
Only when monitoring of first zone results
detect no 1080 will then be reconnected to the
public water supply.
After reconnecting zone one will then be able
to disconnect zone two from public water
supply for 1080 operation to take place.
How is the operation to be managed?
Protocols developed reviewed and approved
by the Auckland Regional Council Public
Health Services - Drinking Water Assessment
Unit and the Medical Officer of Health
Pre-1080 Application Water Quality Testing
Plan
Source Isolation and Recharge Plan
Water Quality Sampling Plan
Raw Water Source Return to service Plan
How are private water supplies managed?
The council addresses any site-specific
requirements with private landowners
The council offer drinking water supply if there
are continued concerns about drinking water
supply.
How is the operation to be managed?
(a) A Pre-1080 Application Water Quality Testing Plan which details a monitoring plan to establish the pre-application water quality of the Hunua ranges water supply reservoirs. (b) A Source Isolation and Recharge Plan which outlines the proves for taking reservoirs out the supply prior to the application of 1080 within a reservoir catchment. (c) A Water Quality Sampling Plan which details the sampling and testing procedures to be carried out during and after the operation. (d) A Raw Water Source Return to Service Plan which defines the process protocols and responsibilities to ensure the safe return to service of the water reservoirs after the 1080 application.
