Protection of the River Recognise wastewater as a resource Not polluting the environment Forward looking, future-proof investment Community use, facilities, amenity value

Values exercise

Can it be used to create a road map/vision?

So what?

Representative of community? This information can be used to develop

Creating a vision - example

Removal of wastewater discharges from the X River Commitment to improvement of river health not just related to wastewater – but in a holistic way Wastewater is managed in an environmentally and fiscally sound way for our community.

Criteria framework

Value and vision

• Basis for developing criteria to assess the options and development of a BPO.
• Assist with developing qualitative or quantitative measures of the non-cost

considerations.

Criteria aims to:

• Enable a multi criteria decision making process to be used to allow options to

be evaluated on their importance to the community.

• Allow for options to be evaluated on their importance to the community.

Criteria framework

• Develop questions that allow all options to be

compared evenly and consistently Purpose

• Questions and response per option.
• Could be yes/no or a score that is added.
• Could have minimum score threshold.
• Could need positive response for each

question. Structure

Criteria framework

• What level of evaluation is used :
• Phase A - Screening
• Phase B - Preference
• Phase C - BPO
• It can change over time

Level applied

Screening may be qualitative BPO may be quantitative

Less detail More detail

Criteria framework

3 types of assessment:

• Has to be met

Bottom lines

• Need to be addressed

Requirements

• Would ideally like to achieve

Aspirational

Need to make sure address/fulfil the Vision

• If $X, how good compared to $Y
• If 15g/m3, how good is that compared to 23g/m3

Need to convert technical attributes to a score

Criteria framework

Issue Criteria Means of Assessment

Health and wellbeing of the waterbodies is restored and protected for current and future generations. Waterbodies are accessible and safe to swim in, and take kai from, all year round. Measured improvements in effluent bacteriological quality. Reduction in nitrogen levels. Alignment to Healthy River Wai Ora Plan change. Decrease in annual loads of nitrogen discharged into waterbodies. Reduction in phosphorus levels. Alignment to Healthy River Wai Ora Plan change. Reduction in phosphorus levels. Acknowledgement and protection of cu cultural val alues. Mauri and mana is safeguarded for present and future generations. Raukawa kaitiaki relationship with their waters is respected, enhanced and supported. Method of discharge used. A wastewater solution that meets the lon long-term ne needs s

flexible way Meets future needs (including cultural needs). Continuous improvement.

• Ability of the solution to be scaled for growth over an agreed period of time.
• Recognition that resource consents can be granted for up to a maximum of 35 years.
• Ability of final solution to be staged to match both growth and funding ability.

Economically via iable for the community Cost to ratepayers. Total cost to the residential ratepayers from the upgrades. This includes any potential revenue generation from the options, as this will offset operating costs.
