development in relation to the implementation and interpretation of the Principles set out under Condition 47, and particularly in relation to the mana whenua principles set out below: (i) Mana / Rangatiratanga – As the original local authorities of Tamaki Makaurau, Iwi require high level Treaty based relationships with all key stakeholders including the Requiring Authority and Auckland Council which recognise their Tangata Whenua status in order to fulfil their roles as kaitiaki. Such partnership relationships can then inform engagement with AT / Council at all levels including direct involvement with design consortia. Relationships are required at governance and senior management levels. Such relationships are a precursor to actualising the other 6 principles. (ii) Whakapapa – Names and genealogical connections– reviving names revives mana through Iwi connections to specific ancestors and events / narratives associated with them. An Iwi inventory of names associated with a given site can be developed so that the most appropriate names are identified to develop design, interpretation and artistic responses. (iii) Tohu – Acknowledging the wider significant Iwi cultural land marks associated with the CRL route and their ability to inform the design of the station precincts, entrances and exits. In particular exploring opportunities to maximise view shafts to such tohu / landmarks as a way of both enhancing cultural landscape connections and as way finding / location devices. (iv) Taiao – Exploring opportunities to bring natural landscape elements back into urban /modified areas e.g. specific native trees, water / puna wai (springs) – promoting bird, insect and aquatic life to create meaningful urban eco systems which connect with former habitats, mahinga kai (food gathering areas) and living sites. (v) Mauri tu – Ensuring emphasis on maintaining or enhancing environmental health / life essence of the wider site – in particular focusing on the quality of wai / water (puna / springs), whenua / soil and air. In particular any puna or underground waterways encountered should be carefully treated with Mana Whenua assistance to ensure their mauri is respected and enhanced where possible. It is also important to minimise the disturbance to Papatuanuku through carefully planned ground works. (vi) Mahi toi – Harnessing the Creative dimension through drawing on names and local tohu to develop strategies to creatively re-inscribe iwi narratives into architecture, interior design, landscape, urban design and public art. (vii) Ahi kaa – need to explore opportunities to facilitate living presences for iwi / hapu to resume ahi-kaa and kaitiaki roles in and around the CRL route and new station precincts; and (b) A summary of the engagement with mana whenua (see Condition 15) and identification of where design has incorporated the mana whenua principles and other mana whenua aspirations. The summary must include a clear explanation of where any comments have not been incorporated and the reasons why not. The summary must be included in the Urban Design DWP submitted to both the Independent Peer Review Panel and Auckland Council as part of the Outline Plan.

(iv) Personality - stations will provide an expression that contributes to their context and local identity and will respond to an appropriate network wide identity. (v) Existing and New Building Structures. (vi) Built Heritage: 

Where built heritage is required for City Rail Link station requirements, adaptive reuse strategies should be considered to preserve the building’s role in establishing the streetscape and urban character.  The development of new buildings and structures should minimise impact on, and disturbance of, Built heritage listed by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust or the Auckland Council District Plan that play a significant role in establishing the streetscape and urban character of the local area. (vii) Bulk, Scale and Massing: 

 



Bulk, scale and massing of structures resulting from the City Rail Link (station buildings in particular) should be sympathetic with the surrounding built urban form. Aotea Station building frontages should correspond with the road reserve boundary unless a specific station plaza area is intended. Karangahape Road station building(s) should be sensitively designed so as to contribute positively and to complement the good public realm and urban form qualities that currently exist in this area of Karangahape Road, Pitt Street and the upper end of Beresford Street. The redevelopment of land acquired for the Newton Station provides the opportunity for a continuous active building frontage to correspond with the road reserve boundary, providing:  This does not conflict with the operation requirements of the station; or  Unless a specific station plaza area is intended.

(viii) Active Frontage – Structures resulting from the City Rail Link should present an active frontage towards public spaces like streets, squares, pedestrian walkways or station plaza areas provided that this doesn’t conflict with the operation requirements of the station. : Where no active frontage is proposed, an explanation of the reasons shall be outlined in the Urban Design DWP. (ix) Weather Protection – Where practicable, station entrances should provide some weather protection along their frontage (e.g. verandahs, awnings, canopies etc.) and these should be considered as part of the design. (x) Adaptability – The design of structures resulting from the City Rail Link should be able to adapt to change over time (e.g. change of uses, innovations in technology etc.) where reasonably practicable and anticipate opportunities (e.g. additional entrances) that may become possible in the future. The station design should

The Requiring Authority will require an Authority under the Historic Places Act 1993 to destroy, damage or modify any archaeological site. This Authority is required in advance of earthworks commencing in the area where the archaeological site is located. It is expected that there will be staged Section 12 Authority applied for to cover the earthworks programme. In the event of unanticipated archaeological sites or koiwi being uncovered the Requiring Authority shall cease activity in the vicinity until it has the relevant approvals, and consulted with the Historic Places Trust and relevant iwi interests. The Requiring Authority will need to acquire the relevant property interests in land subject to the designation before it undertakes any works on that land pursuant to the designation. That may include a formal Public Works Act 1981 land acquisition process. It is acknowledged that property rights issues are separate from resource management effects issues and that the resolution of property issues may be subject to confidentiality agreements between the Requiring Authority and the relevant landowners.

INTRODUCTION Commissioners’ appointment 1.

This decision is made on behalf of the Auckland Council (the Council or AC) by Independent Hearing Commissioners Alan Watson, Michael Parsonson, Rebecca Macky and Basil Morrison appointed and acting under delegated authority under sections 34 and 34A of the Resource Management Act 1991 (the RMA).

Mr Parsonson was unable to attend Day 1 of the hearing due to illness. With the agreement of all parties, the hearing proceeded with the issues other than groundwater and settlement, which were addressed on Day 2.

Throughout the hearing, and whilst the formal proceedings continued, experts representing the applicant, the Council and at times, some submitters, met in conference and conferred in an endeavour to narrow and resolve outstanding points of difference.

This decision contains the findings from our deliberations on the applications for resource consent and has been prepared in accordance with section 113 of the RMA.

City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

This information was available for viewing on the Council website from 2 June 2015. THE PROPOSAL, THE SITE, AND BACKGROUND The Proposal 14. The resource consent package (called Package 1) applied for includes resource consent applications associated with the construction of the CRL infrastructure from the existing Britomart Station to a point just south of the Wyndham and Albert Streets intersection in Auckland City. This includes resource consents for the following matters: 

earthworks, including within a heritage overlay and within an identified floodplain;



activities in and on contaminated land, including under the National Environmental Standard for Assessing and Managing Contaminants in Soil to Protect Human Health;



groundwater take and diversion;



air discharges; and



various discharges to land or water.

15. The operational resource consents that are required for the operation of the CRL will be applied for as part of Resource Consent Package 2 (as defined at paragraphs 27 and 28 of this report). 16. The Britomart Station to Wyndham Street section includes the following construction works: 

cut and cover tunnels from Britomart Station to a point just south of the Albert and Wyndham Streets intersection (approximately 610m in total length);



underpinning of the Chief Post Office (CPO) building;

Site, locality, catchment and environs description 19. The applicant has provided a description of the site, locality, catchment and surrounding environment in the AEE report. 20. In summary, the proposed works are within Auckland’s Central Business District which is a highly modified, intensely developed urban environment. The surrounding land uses include high density office buildings, residential and visitor accommodation, retail, restaurants and bars. As such, the area is highly pedestrianised and is classified as a pedestrian orientated area in the Auckland Council District Plan - Central Area Section 2005. 21. The CRL route in this area has a sloping alignment from north to south, with Albert Street located on the edge of the Queen Street valley and near the ridgeline of Hobson Street. As such, adjoining streets (such as Swanson Street and Wyndham Street) that run down the valley slopes to Queen Street are relatively steep. Britomart Station is located on the route’s lowest point, approximately eight metres below sea level. There are various flood hazards that traverse the works sites, including the CSAs.

Background CRL Notices of Requirement (NoRs) 22. AT gave notice on 23 August 2013 to Auckland Council of its requirement to designate land in the Auckland Council District Plan (Operative Auckland City Central Area Section and Operative Auckland City Isthmus Section) for the construction, operation and maintenance of the CRL. A total of six NoRs were publicly notified on 25 January 2013 and submissions closed on 19th March 2013. 23. The hearing for the six NoRs was held between August and November 2013. In March 2014 the independent commissioners who heard submissions recommended that the designations be confirmed subject to a range of conditions. There were six appeals lodged and the one outstanding appeal was heard in the Environment Court in June 2015. Contractor Procurement Process 24. AT is progressing an Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) procurement process in relation to the CRL construction works for the Britomart to Wyndham section. The ECI procurement is broken into two packages known as Enabling Works Contract 1 and Contract 2. The construction of the proposed works that are the subject of this report falls within both Contracts 1 and 2. In more detail: 

Contract 1 – includes the building modification works at the western end of Britomart Station, underpinning of the CPO building, and the construction of tunnels and a reinstated pedestrian subway that extends into QE2S.



Contract 2 – includes the cut and cover works from the Customs Street West/Albert Street intersection up to Wyndham Street. This contract also includes a major stormwater diversion between Wellesley Street and Swanson Street, labelled the Albert Street Stormwater Main Realignment.

Britomart Station Designation 25. AT lodged an alteration to the Britomart Transport Centre Designation 314 on 29 May 2015. This alteration includes specific conditions that will apply to the construction and modifications associated with the CRL and ongoing operation and maintenance of the transit centre described in the Auckland Council District Plan (Operative Auckland City Central Area Section) as the Britomart Transport Centre. 26. AT has confirmed that the works being proposed to support the alteration to designation are consistent with those proposed as part of this application. Other consents Resource Consent Package 2 – Aotea Station to the North Auckland Line (NAL) 27. AT has stated that this package will include resource consent applications for the CRL from Aotea Station to the NAL, including the construction of Aotea Station, City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

Karangahape Road Station, key utility diversions at the NAL end, as well as the Mt Eden Station extension and connections to the NAL. Package 2 will also seek the necessary resource consents required for the operation of the entire CRL from Britomart Station to the NAL. 28. Package 2 is due to be lodged with the Council for processing in December 2015. Albert Street Stormwater Main Realignment 29. The Albert Street Stormwater Main Realignment project is part of Enabling Works Contract 2 and was granted resource consent by Independent Commissioners for the Council on 20 May 2015. No appeals have been received by the Environment Court on the decision to grant resource consent. Precinct Properties Ltd – Downtown Shopping Centre Redevelopment 30. Precinct Properties Ltd (PPL) has recently been granted resource consents for the re-development of the Downtown Shopping Centre site. The resource consents for the “below ground” works, which include the CRL running tunnels through their proposed basement, were granted on 5 May 2015 on a non-notified basis. The land use consents for the “above ground” works were granted on 10 June 2015 on a non-notified basis. Certificates of Compliance 31. AT has applied for several Certificates of Compliance (CoCs) for the Britomart to Wyndham section, which are being assessed by the Council. RESOURCE CONSENTS REQUIRED AND ACTIVITY STATUS 32. The proposal requires resource consent for the following reasons. Land use consents (s9) – R/REG/2014/5430 Auckland Council Regional Plan: Sediment Control (ACRP:SC) 

The total area of excavation within the Sediment Control Protection Area is 4,200m2 or 0.42 ha which exceeds the 0.25ha permitted threshold and the trenching proposed is greater than 100m. This requires a restricted discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule 5.4.3.1 of the ACRP:SC.

Proposed Auckland Unitary Plan (PAUP) 

The total earthworks for network utilities and road networks within the Business: City Centre zone in excess of 2,500m2 or 2,500m3 that cannot meet the permitted activity standards, specifically the development alters the configuration of an overland flow path, is within 20m of a scheduled historic heritage place and various scheduled sites and places of significance to mana whenua, requires restricted discretionary resource consent pursuant to Rule G.2.3.2 of the PAUP.

City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

Land use consents (s9) – R/LUC/2014/5428 PAUP 

Earthworks greater than 2,500m2 or 2,500m3 for network utilities and road networks within the Historic Heritage Overlay, specifically the Chief Post Office (CPO) building (reference: 02021), requires a discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule H.4.2.1.2 (activity table). The total amount of earthworks within the CPO totals approximately 20,000m3 of cut and 12,000m3 of fill.



Earthworks greater than 2,500m2 or 2,500m3 for network utilities and road networks within the 100-year Annual Recurrence Interval (ARI) flood plain requires a restricted discretionary resource consent pursuant to Rule H.4.2.1.2 (activity table). A section of the proposed earthwork will occur within the 100 year ARI floodplain.

NES for Assessing and Managing Contaminants in Soil to Protect Human Health (NES:soil) 

The proposed volume of soil disturbance exceeds 25m3 per 500m2 and the volume of soil proposed to be removed from the site will exceed 5m3 per 500m2. The applicant has stated that it cannot be concluded at this time that the soil contamination will not exceed the applicable standards in Regulation 7 and, as such, the soil disturbance requires a discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Regulation 11 of the NES:soil.

Water permits (s14) – R/REG/2014/5432 Auckland Council Regional Plan: Air, Land & Water (ACRP:ALW) 

The temporary and permanent diversion of groundwater as a result of the proposal may result in potential adverse effects on buildings, structures and services. This requires a restricted discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule 6.5.77 of the ACRP:ALW.



The taking of groundwater for the purposes of a groundwater diversion under Rule 6.5.77 of the ACRP:ALW requires a restricted discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule 6.5.43 of the ACRP:ALW.



The new bores for the proposed dewatering system will be in place for longer than the three month permitted activity standard period and, as a result, a controlled activity resource consent is required pursuant to Rule 6.5.26 of the ACRP:ALW.

PAUP 

The temporary and permanent groundwater diversion from the proposed tunnel excavations will be greater than 1m in diameter. This activity requires a restricted discretionary resource consent pursuant to Rule H.4.17.1 (activity table).

City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437



The dewatering associated with a groundwater diversion that requires a restricted discretionary resource consent also requires a restricted discretionary resource consent pursuant to Rule H.4.17.1 (activity table).



New bores for the proposed dewatering system for purposes not otherwise specified (all zones) requires a controlled activity resource consent pursuant to Rule H.4.17.1 (activity table).

Discharge permits (s15) – R/REG/2014/5435 ACRP:ALW 

The findings of the site investigation report state that soil contamination has not been identified above permitted activity criteria. However, the investigations were limited in scope due to site constraints and, as such, there is potential for contaminated fill to be present within the project footprint. As such, the discharge of contaminants to land and water from the proposed land disturbance requires a restricted discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule 5.5.44A of the ACRP:ALW.

PAUP 

The findings of the site investigation report state that soil contamination has not been identified above permitted activity criteria. However, the investigations were limited in scope due to site constraints and, as such, there is potential for contaminated fill to be present within the project footprint. As such, contaminated land discharges from the proposed land disturbance require restricted discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule H.4.5.1 (activity table).

Note: The applicant originally applied for resource consent for the ongoing discharge of contaminants to land or water pursuant to H.4.5.1 (activity table) and Rule 5.5.43 of the ACRP: ALW. In response to this, although an undefined amount of passive discharge of contaminants may be occurring from this material (given the widespread placement of fill material throughout this are of the CBD), Auckland Council has confirmed that a long term consent for the discharge of contaminants will not be required following the completion of the construction works. Discharge permits (s15) – R/REG/2014/5436 ACRP:ALW 

The proposed discharge of wastewater and/or washwater to land or water is subject to the “other” discharge provisions and can be considered a permitted activity pursuant to Rule 5.5.54 and 5.5.55 if the applicable standards can be met. The applicant has stated that there remains uncertainty regarding the quality of discharges as a result of potential unknown ground contamination. As such, the proposed discharges to land or water requires a discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule 5.5.68 of the ACRP:ALW.

City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

PAUP 

The proposed discharge of water or wastewater can be considered a permitted activity pursuant to Rule H.4.18.1 (activity table) if the permitted activity standards can be met at section H.4.18.2.1.1. The applicant has stated that there remains uncertainty regarding the quality of discharges as a result of potential unknown ground contamination. As such, the discharge of water or wastewater requires a discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule H.4.18.1 (activity table).



Discharges for the purpose of dewatering trenches or other excavations can be considered a permitted activity pursuant to Rule H.4.18.1 (activity table) if the permitted activity standards can be met at section H.4.18.2.1.5. The applicant has stated that there remains uncertainty regarding the quality of discharges as a result of potential unknown ground contamination. As such, the discharge for the purpose of dewatering trenches or other excavations requires a discretionary activity resource consent pursuant to Rule H.4.18.1 (activity table).

Discharge permits (s15) – R/REG/2014/5437 ACRP:ALW 

While the applicant has stated that it is their intention to manage the works to ensure compliance with the permitted activity rule standards (Rule 4.5.49), because of the very close proximity and high sensitivity of the receiving environment the applicant has applied for a restricted discretionary resource consent is required pursuant to Rule 4.5.56 of the ACRP:ALW.

PAUP 

While the applicant has stated that it is their intention to manage the works to ensure compliance with the permitted activity rule standards (section H.4.1.3.1.1), because of the very close proximity and high sensitivity of the receiving environment the applicant has applied for a restricted discretionary resource consent is required pursuant to Rule H.4.1.1 (activity table) of the PAUP.

33. The proposal involves multiple resource consents under different plans. In this instance the consents required are either controlled, restricted discretionary or discretionary. Where there is an overlap between the consents and / or the effects of the activities, so that consideration of one could affect the outcome of another, the appropriate practice is to treat the applications together. The applicant has applied for the relevant resource consents, required under both the operative plans and the proposed plan, together as a ‘bundled’ application and Council is considering the applications in the same holistic manner. Overall the proposal has been considered as a discretionary activity.

Representations at the hearing 34. The section 42A report prepared by the Council’s reporting planner had been precirculated and was taken as read. 35. Mr Beatson presented opening legal submissions for the applicant and called a range of expert witnesses to present summaries of their evidence and respond to questions. 36. We then heard from submitters and from Council officers and consultants. 37. Mr Beatson completed his right of reply verbally, except for the final set of draft conditions which were circulated on 8 July 2015 for comments by 10 July 2015. Relevant statutory provisions considered 38. When considering an application for resource consent for a discretionary or noncomplying activity we must have regard to Part 2 (“purpose and principles” – sections 5 to 8), and sections 104 and 104B and, where relevant, sections 105, 107 and 108. 39. When considering any actual or potential effects, we may disregard any adverse effects that arise from permitted activities in a NES or a plan (the permitted baseline); we have a discretion whether to apply this permitted baseline. Relevant standards, policy statements and plan provisions considered 40. In accordance with section 104(1)(b)(i)-(vi) of the RMA, we have had regard to the relevant policy statements and plan provisions of the following documents, noting that no national policy statements are relevant to this application. 

Weighting 41. The Commissioners agree with the reporting planner that as the Project is not contrary to the objectives and policies under both the operative plans and the proposed plan. And as the outcomes are the same under the operative and the proposed plan frameworks, no weighting is necessary. Summary of evidence heard 42. The Council planning officer’s recommendation report was circulated prior to the hearing and taken as read. 43. The evidence presented at the hearing responded to the issues and concerns identified in the Council’s section 42A report, the application itself and the submissions made on the application. Applicant 44. The evidence presented by the applicant at the hearing is summarised below, including legal submissions presented by Mr Beatson which addressed the following: 

Confirmation that the current application seeks resource consents for construction of the Britomart to Wyndham Street section of the CRL (the Project) and that consents for the remainder of the CRL from Wyndham Street to the North Auckland Line at Mt Eden Station are due to be lodged in late 2015.



The key issues, being groundwater and settlement effects, and the impact that those effects will have on surrounding buildings; and the use of alert, alarm and stop work levels to ensure that no more than ‘slight’ damage will be caused to buildings (as defined by Burland).



The proposal to engage an independent buildings specialist to assist in determining and avoiding damage to buildings caused by settlement.



The need for the CRL; construction sequencing in the five active construction zones (ACZs); and the key effects of the consent package.



A response to the Council section 42A report, and in particular the degree of conservatism applied in predicting groundwater and settlement effects; the adaptive management technique and the ability to rely on conditions.



A response to submissions and statutory matters, including Part 2.

All the expert evidence of the applicant had been pre-read by the Commissioners, enabling the applicant’s witnesses to summarise their statements and respond to questions. Scott Elwarth, AT’s Construction Manager, advised that the cut and cover construction of this section of the CRL is critical to the Project; that the proposed strategy of CRL enabling works contracts will mitigate disruption and enable other developments to proceed; and completing the enabling works ahead of other planned projects will avoid disruption to newly established operations and potential damage to newly built infrastructure. City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

Colin Ingoe, of AT’s Infrastructure Division, observed that the rationale for the adopted CRL consenting strategy is robust and appropriate to enable the CRL Project, and outlined the consultation and engagement undertaken, stating that it was appropriate, given the scale and nature of the Project. Bill Newns, Chartered Engineer, presented three statements 

In the first statement, relating to design and construction, Mr Newns summarised the proposed works and construction methodology – engineering design and indicative construction methodologies including work site and construction support area locations and activities, design constraints and alternatives considered, and an indicative construction programme, referring to a draft Erosion and Sediment Control Management Plan and the draft Environmental Management Plan.



In his second statement, Mr Newns commented on ground settlement matters - the technical assessment methodology, settlement estimates, assessment of the effects on utilities, roads and infrastructure, monitoring and contingency measures, and proposed conditions, concluding that “Whilst adverse construction effects and in particular ‘damage’ can and should be mitigated as far as reasonably practicable, they cannot in all instances be subject to a requirement that they be avoided as there are always elements of uncertainty in geotechnical engineering and the costs of ‘avoiding’ the potential effects may be disproportionate to the costs of rectification. Very few of the buildings along the CRL Enabling Works corridor are subject to these very small risks ….In the most unlikely event of such risks occurring, and where it is demonstrated to be a result of the works …. Such damage will in all cases be repaired by 1 AT. ”



In his supplementary statement of evidence, Mr Newns updated the position following further discussions with AC and responses to submitters, concluding that “The potential effects of settlement associated with the construction of the Britomart Station to Wyndham Street section of the City Rail Link will be less than minor and are able to be 2 managed through the conditions proposed. ”

Alan Pattle, an engineer with a recognised speciality in water resources (including groundwater flow) and environmental engineering, addressed groundwater issues, conditions and effects, expected cumulative impacts of the Project with the Downtown Shopping Centre Re-development, conditions and other relevant matters. He advised that groundwater levels would be monitored and alert trigger levels established to provide a check that the measured levels are within modelled predictions, noting that groundwater response is an indicator of potential ground settlement. Eric Stevenson, Structural Engineer, provided two statements of evidence: 

1 2

In the first, he addressed the combined potential adverse effects on building structures associated with construction excavation induced settlement along the tunnel alignment and advised that potential adverse effects on buildings can be avoided by good design and workmanship; implementation of pre-construction building assessments; and construction phase monitoring of buildings. If any adverse

Second statement of evidence of Bill Newns dated 19 June 2015, paragraph 85 Supplementary statement of evidence of Bill Newns dated 6 July 2015, paragraph 55

City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

effects do occur, in Mr Stevenson’s opinion, these would be acceptable, in terms of being negligible to slight, with regard to potential structural damage to all the buildings within the Project’s zone of influence. That is, any damage would only be of a superficial or aesthetic nature. 

In his supplementary statement of evidence, Mr Stevenson updated his evidence in chief and provided a memorandum setting out building settlement assessment calculations. He confirmed his opinion that the potential effects of excavation-induced mechanical settlement and settlement resulting from consolidation of the soil due to groundwater drawdown on built structures would generally be acceptable and able to be managed through conditions, detailed design and construction.

Bruce Petry, Heritage and Conservation Architect, advised that the potential construction effects on heritage values of identified scheduled buildings will be minor; and confirmed that any potential effects on identified built heritage resulting from ground settlement could be appropriately managed through monitoring and mitigation measures, including pre- and post-condition surveys, and the rectification of any damage. Andrew Hart, Senior Environmental Scientist, provided evidence on the assessment and management of contaminated land in the Project area. Key findings of his evidence were that there are potential contamination effects associated with proposed soil disturbance; and that mitigation of these effects can be achieved through excavation and disposal methods, and by following the relevant management plan. Richard Chilton, Senior Air Quality Scientist, noted that without mitigation, the Project has the potential to generate offensive or objectionable dust effects in the sensitive receiving environment; but that with the proposed mitigation and monitoring effectively implemented, these effects will be no more than minor. Sarah Sutherland, Senior Environmental Scientist, addressed water management aspects of the Project, identifying stormwater runoff discharge measures from the CSAs to the stormwater system, and that all water generated within the ACZs will be collected and treated onsite prior to discharge to the stormwater system. Jennifer Carvill, Planner and Resource Management Consultant, provided two statements of evidence: 

In the first, Ms Carvill gave comprehensive evidence of the proposal, the existing environment, reasons for consent, assessment of effects, the statutory assessment, a response to submissions and the Council section 42A report, and then discussed the proposed conditions. Ms Carvill found that the Project is consistent with relevant objectives and policies; that any adverse effects can be appropriately avoided, remedied or mitigated; and that the Project is in accordance with Part 2 of the RMA. Ms Carvill provided a set of conditions and identified those areas in respect of which discussions with relevant Council officers were ongoing.

Submitters 45. The evidence presented by the submitters at the hearing is summarised below. Duncan McKenzie, Heritage Advisor Planning, for Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga, provided a statement of evidence relating to effects on heritage buildings and archaeology, and further notes dated 7 July 2015. Mr McKenzie spoke to his written evidence at the hearing and responded to questions from the Hearing Panel. . Mr McKenzie confirmed that Heritage New Zealand’s concerns relating to built heritage are met to the extent that he has no further concerns, and that given the archaeological authority sought by the applicant, no accidental discovery protocols would be required. Mr McKenzie did request that the project take the opportunity to provide public education on the history of the site and any archaeological material identified or recovered during the works. Richard Brabant, Legal Counsel, appeared for 152 Quay Street (Harbour View Building) Body Corporate 107678; 148 Quay Street Body Corporate 164980; and Pandy Hotel Corporation (building owner of the hotel building on the corner of Custom and Queen Streets). He expressed his clients’ concerns relating to ground settlement and commented on conditions of consent. Gavin Alexander, Technical Director Beca, provided two statements of evidence in support of Mr Brabant’s clients: 

In his first statement, Mr Alexander addressed the buildings at 148 Quay Street, 152 Quay Street and 2-8 Customs Street, all in the vicinity of the CPO and Lower Queen Street (LQS) portion of the CRL Project. Mr Alexander expected these structures to be relatively resistant to the effects of settlement occurring in the soils overlying the Waitemata Group rock at this location. However, he did express reservations regarding the level of certainty inherent in the applicant’s groundwater drawdown predictions. Mr Alexander promoted the inclusion of alarm and stop-work limits for groundwater drawdown, in addition to the applicant’s proposed triggers for ground settlement.



His supplementary statement responded to Mr Newns’ supplementary statement and commented on updated conditions following discussions held with the applicant’s team.

Noel Playle and Gordon Nelson appeared for the Endeans’ Building, Body Corporate 095035, 2 Queen Street, noting their concerns and the lack of consultation with the applicant in respect of their heritage building. Mr Playle stressed the building’s age (100 years’ old) and the recent substantial repair and upgrade that had been carried out. He raised issues relating to access to the building during construction; noise levels and hours of operation; dust, safety and security. Mr Nelson provided details of the building’s construction and foundation piles, raising concerns about construction-related settlement, particularly given the recent building upgrade to a high standard. Noise was also raised as an issue. Mr Nelson also sought certainty that access would be maintained to complete the building maintenance works that must be completed within the CRL construction period.

The applicant and the submitters took the opportunity during the hearing to remedy the perceived lack of consultation and the airing of the submitters’ concerns was taken on board by the applicant. Amanda Stoltz, Legal Counsel, appeared on behalf of the Stamford Residences’ Owners Corporation, 22-26 Albert Street. Her client sought a site-specific management plan for the property or alternative conditions to address her client’s concerns through the proposed Construction Environmental Management Plan and the Groundwater and Settlement Monitoring and Contingency Plan. Air discharge concerns were also raised. Vicki Morrison-Shaw, Legal Counsel, appeared for Cooper and Company NZ, identifying that her client’s key remaining areas of concern related to other approvals necessary; affected party liaison group; review and groundwater / settlement. Vijay Lala, resource management planning consultant, gave evidence in support of Ms Morrison-Shaw’s client. Mr Lala advised that subject to the adoption of Council’s recommended conditions, and the submitter’s concerns identified by Counsel being adequately addressed through conditions, potential adverse effects could be avoided, remedied or mitigated. Trevor Wilkinson, who resides in the Quay West Apartments, Albert Street, tabled evidence seeking that his genuine concerns relating to health and safety are safeguarded. Catherine Reaburn, planning consultant, tabled evidence on behalf of Precinct Properties Ltd (which has an interest in 1, 7 and 21 Queen Street and 23 Albert Street and did not appear at the hearing. Ms Reaburn expressed support for the Council’s recommended conditions in relation to construction management and groundwater monitoring and contingency. 46. For the Council, Mr Gysberts advised that discussions with the applicant and interested submitters was ongoing and useful, resulting in refinements to the conditions. 47. Following Mr Beatson’s partial right of reply, the hearing was adjourned as at midday on Wednesday 8 July 2015, to provide the opportunity for discourse between the parties attending the hearing regarding the draft conditions. 48. Subsequent to the hearing, AT and AC officers met and agreed on a draft set of conditions, which was forwarded to all parties attending the hearing for comment by Friday 10 June 2015. 49. Feedback was received, and the Commissioners then met on Tuesday 28 July 2015 to consider the latest set of conditions and the feedback from various submitters. Following that meeting, they determined that they had sufficient information to close the hearing and the hearing was declared closed on 29 July 2015. PRINCIPAL ISSUES IN CONTENTION 50. The parties were in agreement over most aspects of the Project and no party appearing at the hearing was opposed to the Project occurring, subject to appropriate conditions.

51. At the commencement of the hearing, Auckland Council had held reservations about the applicability of the Burland Stage 2 method for the calculation of tensile strain, and as a consequence expressed uncertainty regarding the reliability of the predicted actual and potential effects on buildings and services. At that time, Auckland Council was not satisfied that building damage would be limited to the ‘slight’ (Burland Class 2) category, based on the information provided by the applicant. 52. However, and as noted above, parties took the opportunity during the hearing to conduct parallel, side-bar discussions on matters of concern and the wording of conditions to address those concerns. As a result, the Commissioners were presented with an agreed set of conditions with which to work. Consequently, in addition to the broader considerations under the RMA and the relevant planning documents, our attention was focused on: 

The extent of actual or potential adverse effects on the environment and whether these effects can be avoided, remedied or mitigated to be minor, or avoided or mitigated to an acceptable level;



Whether the various management plans proposed would effectively address the matters of concern; and



The wording of the agreed conditions.

53. We comment on these principal issues below in the discussion on adverse effects FINDINGS ON PRINCIPAL ISSUES – ADVERSE EFFECTS ON THE ENVIRONMENT What is the ‘environment’ for the purposes of considering the actual and potential adverse effects of the proposal? 54. The existing environment comprises a busy, high-density built-up urban area with a range of land uses and including busy traffic routes and heritage buildings. The land uses are all sensitive to varying degrees to the potential effects associated with the proposed construction works, including traffic disruption, noise and vibration. Effects that must be disregarded Any effect on a person who has given written approval to the application No person has given their written approval to the application. Trade competition There are no trade competition effects that must be disregarded. Effects that may be disregarded – Permitted Baseline assessment 55. The permitted baseline approach, which refers to permitted activities on the subject site, is of limited value for this application, and the Commissioners have not relied on it to discount adverse effects from permitted activities. However AT’s applications for CoCs for various aspects of the Project do constitute the permitted baseline for this project. City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

Assessment of Effects Positive Effects 56. In the AEE, the applicant identified potential positive effects that will result from the Project as well as the broader positive effects from the wider CRL project. The Commissioners agree with the applicant’s assessment of positive effects. Effects from Earthworks 57. The proposal is for approximately 143,000m3 of cut and 82,000m3 of fill along the route, over a cumulative area of approximately 11,000m2. The main methods of sediment and erosion control include clean water diversions, settlement tanks, stormwater inlet protection, chemical treatment and progressive stabilisation. The immediate receiving environment for any generated runoff will be to the stormwater network and subsequently the Waitemata Harbour, discharging near the ferry terminal. All of these methods are in accordance with the industry best practice and Auckland Council’s Technical Publication 90 – Erosion and Sediment Control Guidelines for Land Disturbing Activities in the Auckland Region (TP90). 58. We accept that the applicant’s assessment and evidence adequately identify the potential adverse effects resulting from the earthworks and that the proposed mitigation measures are appropriate given the relatively small volume and area of earthworks and the receiving environment. 59. The final Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (ESCP) will be submitted to Council for certification prior to any earthworks commencing as part of the overall Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP). This will be supported by a Chemical Treatment Management Plan (CTMP) that will outline the procedures for chemically flocculating sediment laden water prior to being discharged from the site. We agree with the Council’s specialist for earthworks, Stephanie Benucci, that subject to the measures included in these plans being implemented correctly, adverse effects relating to the discharge of treated sediment laden water from the proposed earthworks will not be significant and will be appropriately mitigated. We find the adverse effects from earthworks on the environment will be minor. 60. We note that the conditions provided to us, as agreed between the applicant and Auckland Council, could better reflect the degree of integration necessary between the ESCP, the CTMP and the Contaminated Soils Management Plan (CSMP). Consequently, we have made minor changes to those conditions to reflect the inter-related function of those management plans. Effects on Existing Flood Plains 61. Relatively small, isolated areas of 1% AEP flood plain (localised ponding) are identified at several locations along the proposed route, as denoted on the PAUP maps. Works within these areas trigger restricted discretionary activity rule infringement under Chapter H4.2 of the PAUP. Potential adverse effects from flooding were not raised by submitters and we accept the assessment by Council’s specialist, Scott Paton, that finished levels around the shafts will be City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

similar to the pre-existing condition and will not alter floodwater characteristics. We find that the works will not have an adverse effect on flooding within or beyond the site. Air Quality Effects 62. Air quality effects from the potential discharges of contaminants to air from construction and earthworks associated with the Project were assessed by Paul Crimmins, Senior Consents and Compliance Advisor, Air Quality Team in AC’s Natural Resources and Specialist Input Unit. 63. Mr Crimmins concurred with the applicant that any potential dust effects can be adequately mitigated through the Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) so that adverse effects arising from these discharges are not significant. 64. We accept the unanimous opinion of the experts that the mitigation measures proposed in the draft AQMP – including the monitoring regime – represent the Best Practicable Option (BPO) for minimising discharges of contaminants to air, in particular, the most significant contaminant, which is dust. 65. Any odorous discharges which may arise from excavations, particularly if soils which have been contaminated by hydrocarbons are encountered, will be addressed through a specific Contaminated Soils Management Plan (CSMP). Cultural Effects 66. The Cultural Impact Assessment (“CIA”) information requirement in the PAUP is triggered by the proposal, in order for Council to assess the adverse effects on Mana Whenua values. Whilst AT’s engagement with Manu Whenua groups has been appropriate, no CIAs have been prepared to date. 67. One submission was received from Mana Whenua, being Ngāti Maru, but to date, no determination has been provided to Council as to whether Ngāti Maru wishes to prepare and submit a CIA. The issues raised are that the proposal compromises the interests of Ngāti Maru protected by the RMA and that the consultation on the proposal is incomplete. The Commissioners reject the latter issue, as we find that the consultation undertaken to date by the applicant has been thorough and extensive. 68. The applicant has emphasised the areas where Mana Whenua interest relating to this project has been identified, being earthworks, stormwater and groundwater and the corresponding discharges to the environment; the protection of the Hauraki Gulf from contaminants such as stormwater; and improving water quality outcomes in the catchment. We are satisfied that the applicant is proposing to use best practice methods to ensure the receiving environment is not compromised by the proposed discharges. 69. The Commissioners accept that the actual and potential effects on cultural values have been adequately addressed.

Contaminated Land Discharge Effects 70. The effects from the discharge of contaminants to land and water from the disturbance of contaminated land have been addressed in the evidence of Andrew Hart and Sarah Sutherland and covered in the draft Contaminated Soils Management Plan (CSMP), which provides management procedures and measures relevant to handling and disposal of contaminated material to mitigate potential adverse effects on the environment and human health. The measures include erosion and sediment controls, measures for monitoring groundwater quality and alternative disposal procedures, and procedures for the excavation, handling and disposal of contaminated and potentially contaminated soil. These details have been assessed by the Councilâ€™s in-house expert for contaminated land, Andrew Kalbarczyk and consultant expert Rob Burden, who have reported that with implementation of the CSMP, adverse effects can be appropriately mitigated and managed. Only one submission was received on these matters, that being from the Auckland Regional Public Health Service. Mr Burden is satisfied that the proposed conditions will adequately address the matters raised in that submission. 71. The Commissioners agree with Mr Kalbarczyk and Mr Burden, and the evidence presented on behalf of the applicant. Given the concentrations of contaminants are low and are isolated occurrences, the proposed mitigation measures will appropriately address excavation and disposal of soil and groundwater. The submission of the final CSMP as part of the overall CEMP for certification by Council, and its implementation, will ensure that the adverse effects on the environment from the disturbance and handling of potentially contaminated soil and groundwater will be minor. Again, we have made minor changes to the agreed conditions to better link the CSMP with the ESCP. Effects from the Discharge of Wastewater and/or Washwater on Water Quality 72. The effects from the discharge of wastewater and/or washwater to land and water during construction have been assessed. There are a number of potential sources of water that require management during construction, and in addition to the treatment of discharges, source controls are proposed to reduce sediment loadings in the discharge. The use of an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) will manage the CSAs, ensuring that structural controls are installed and implemented. 73. The applicant proposes an ongoing monitoring regime to ensure that the anticipated water quality standards are met and has included options if limits are exceeded. 74. The Commissioners accept that given the proposed site and wastewater and/or washwater management measures, any adverse effects of the proposed discharge activity on the environment will be less than minor.

Transport Network Effects 75. The Commissioners have adopted the view that construction related effects on the transport network associated with the earthworks activity is a matter that should be considered. 76. Through the assessment of the NoRs, the effects from construction traffic associated with the proposal were assessed and it was found that adverse temporary effects to the existing road transport network and property accesses during the construction of the CRL will be significant; that the establishment of various construction areas will generate additional traffic in the form of construction vehicles; and that the level of service on the Quality Transit Network in the City Centre can be expected to be low to moderate. 77. The actual and potential construction related effects on the transport network were assessed under the NoRs and various conditions were subsequently confirmed by AT. The Commissioners accept that the construction traffic related conditions for the NoRs are generally appropriate to avoid, remedy or mitigate the actual and potential effects from construction traffic. Specifically, the Transport, Access and Parking Delivery Work Package, monitoring requirements, the specific requirements for the Britomart Station to Mayoral Drive section and the communication and consultation requirements required in the confirmed conditions will achieve this outcome. Construction Noise Effects 78. Construction noise is a district plan land use matter and has been addressed through the NoR process; however, as it is currently drafted, the PAUP suggests that construction noise effects associated with the earthworks activity is a matter that should be considered by Council. 79. The actual and potential construction noise effects were assessed by an independent Hearing Panel for the NoRs and various conditions were recommended and subsequently confirmed by AT. The confirmed conditions seek to avoid, remedy or mitigate specific construction noise effects and include specific construction noise project standards for various construction activities and for various types of receivers. A Site Specific Construction Noise Management Plan (SSCNMP) must be developed in specified circumstances and a Construction Noise and Vibration Delivery Work Package (CNVDWP) must also be submitted to Council. 80. Whilst various submitters have raised concerns with respect to construction noise, the Commissioners accept that the condition framework in the CRL NoRs appropriately avoids, remedies or mitigates the adverse construction noise effects from the proposal. Effects on Utilities 81. The applicant has identified the existing services in the project area and the Councilâ€™s assessment is that any effects from ground settlement can be avoided, City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

remedied or mitigated subject to the recommended conditions of consent. Damage can also result from uncovering services in unknown locations but such events can be managed by ensuring contact with utility operators and suitable measures being taken to ensure that services are adequately supported or managed once exposed. 82. On that basis we agree that any adverse effects on existing infrastructure will be appropriately managed so that the effects will be minor. Dewatering/settlement, takes and diversion of groundwater 83. Potential settlement effects on buildings, structures and utilities is a key matter raised in submissions and was the main point of conjecture between the applicant and Auckland Council at the commencement of the hearing, noting that those parties have subsequently agreed on all recommended conditions. 84. In brief, technical reports and evidence relating to the potential effects of the proposal on buildings, other structures and services was focussed on the following elements: 

The extent to which groundwater levels will be altered during excavation and post excavation;



The likely ground response (consolidation and mechanical settlement) that will occur as a result of groundwater changes; and



The potential effects that ground responses will have on various buildings in the vicinity of the works.

85. Leading into the hearing, Auckland Council indicated acceptance of the Burland Stage 1 method for categorising levels of effects of ground settlement on buildings. However, it expressed concern about the application of the Burland Stage 2 method for the calculation of tensile strain, and consequently held uncertainty on the likely actual and potential effects on buildings and services. At that time the Auckland Council was not satisfied that building damage would be limited to the ‘slight’ (Burland Class 2) category, based on the information provided by the applicant. 86. Submitters representing building owners along the route could be grouped into those within the predicted settlement contours, and those immediately beyond those contours. The former included buildings along Albert Street (including Stamford Residences represented by Ms Stoltz), the Precinct Properties Building at 23 Albert Street and 7 Queen Street (addressed by Ms Reaburn), and the Chief Post Office Building (CPO) leased by Cooper & Co (addressed by Mr Lala and represented by Ms Morrison-Shaw). The latter groups include the body corporates represented by Mr Brabant, the Endeans Building (represented by Messrs Playle and Nelson), and the Precinct Properties buildings at 1 and 21 Queen St (addressed by Ms Reaburn).

87. For submitters, those within the predicted settlement contours sought assurance that effects would be within the predicted range (no more than ‘slight’ on the Burland scale), and that an appropriate extent and duration of monitoring, and responses to repair effects would be undertaken. 88. Submitters representing owners of buildings outside the predicted settlement contours sought assurance that the effects of the works would be no more than ‘negligible’ on the Burland scale, and that an appropriate extent and duration of monitoring, and response would be undertaken. Those submitters sought a clear separation in consent conditions between their properties and those within the predicted settlement contours. 89. The predicted building responses were influenced by the variability of ground conditions along the route as well as the foundation conditions of various buildings, with newer buildings being founded on unweathered East Coast Bays Formation (ECBF) rock. 90. The final set of conditions presented to us during the adjournment provided an agreed position between the Auckland Council and the applicant. They also accommodated many changes sought by submitters. In summary, those conditions: 

Distinguish between buildings inside and outside the predicted settlement contours;



Include identified buildings located outside the predicted settlement contours in the list of buildings to be subject to pre-construction surveys and to be monitored during and post-construction (Appendix 1).



Include specific building movement alarm and trigger levels for the identified buildings located outside the predicted settlement contours (Appendix 4).



Require that the project be monitored and managed to ensure that building damage within the predicted settlement contours does not exceed the “slight” category of Burland Class 2 (Condition 88).



Require that the project be monitored and managed to ensure that building damage outside the predicted settlement contours does not exceed the “negligible” category of the Burland Class 1 (Condition 88).



Provide additional building monitoring marks on 2-8 Customs Street (Mercure Hotel)

91. The applicant also included a detailed condition that specifically requires that any damage to buildings, structures or services that is caused wholly or in part by the exercising of the consent shall be remedied at the consent holder’s expense. 92. In considering the potential groundwater and settlement effects of the proposal, we must be satisfied that the predictions of settlement and effects on buildings presented to us is appropriately reliable and conservative to the extent that adverse effects are generally avoided and, where not avoided, within the predicted scale of effects that have been considered by submitters. City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

93. Mr Pattle described additional modelling undertaken in response to Auckland Council feedback, and the level of conservatism he anticipated in the model outputs. He considered likely groundwater drawdowns and informed the predictions of consolidation of compressible soils provided by Mr Newns. Mr Pattle’s modelling was based on cut-off walls and soldier pile walls extending to the top of the un-weathered ECBF rock, and the cut-off walls under the CPO building extending 2m into the un-weathered ECBF. 94. With respect to Britomart Station and the CPO, he considered effects to be within the range experienced during the previous development of the Britomart Station and within seasonal variations, which provided a level of confidence regarding likely effects in that location. Continuous pile walls will be constructed in the vicinity of the CPO building and lower Queen Street, and a consent condition has been offered and included limiting groundwater egress in that area to “no visible seepage”. ACZA and sheet piles and temporary soldier pile walls are proposed along the route of the cut and cover tunnels for the Britomart Station to lower Albert Street. A condition has also been included to reinforce the requirement for temporary perimeter cut-off walls from the CPO to chainage 300m (lower Albert Street) to achieve no more than 0.3m3/day ingress (though the wall) of groundwater per 10m of wall. 95. Along Albert Street Mr Pattle predicts that the most significant groundwater changes will occur within the shallower, perched water tables in the upper horizons of soil and fill. These changes are predicted to be limited in lateral extent and will have been influenced by previous building construction. 96. Post-construction, Mr Pattle predicted that groundwater levels will return to the pre-construction state. 97. In addition to their evidence in chief, Messrs Newns and Stevenson provided supplementary evidence to address ground settlement predictions and building responses respectively. Mr Newns provided further background to the Burland method for assessing building damage risk. They both re-affirmed their confidence in the Burland method (Stage 1 and 2) as being appropriate for use in the context of this project. 98. Mr Stevenson explained the output of additional modelling undertaken that reassessed mechanical settlement effects utilising the method preferred by the Auckland Council technical reviewers. This modelling particularly sought to address the Auckland Council concerns regarding the predictions of tensile strain and subsequently suitability of Burland Stage 2. Mr Stevenson also reiterated and explained his confidence in his earlier modelling. Mr Stevenson and Mr Newns reported on a reassessment of consolidation settlement, based on revised data provided by Mr Pattle, and a reassessment of combined mechanical and consolidation induced settlements. These calculations indicated a potential increase in settlement predictions. However, Mr Stevenson reaffirmed that the predicted building damage within the predicted settlement contours would be no more than the ‘slight’ range under Burland Class 2, as originally predicted. City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

99. Mr Newns explained that the detailed design of the project will be subject to the building consent process, which will ensure that the design achieves the performance criteria of the resource consent conditions. Mr Hazard, on behalf of Auckland Council, confirmed that this process is successfully occurring on other infrastructure projects and expressed confidence that the appropriate level of integration between the resource consent compliance and building consent functions of the Council would be achieved in this instance. 100. A key element of the set of conditions now agreed between the applicant and Auckland Council is the linkage between imposed performance standards, the establishment and implementation of a Groundwater and Settlement Monitoring and Contingency Plan (“GSMCP”), pre-construction building condition assessments, ongoing building assessments (based on specific criteria), and responses to identified damage. Building inspections are to be undertaken by an independent senior qualified person, whose role will include inspecting and reporting on any identified damage that is attributable to the project, and methods to remedy such damage. The independent senior qualified person shall also assess and advise on mitigation measures that may be necessary to avoid damage in the event that ground or building monitoring alert levels are triggered. The role of the independent senior qualified person will be independent of, and will not diminish, the Auckland Council’s compliance monitoring and enforcement function. 101. We are now satisfied that the applicant has undertaken an appropriate level of investigation and has achieved the necessary level of certainty regarding the likely effects of the works, and how those effects will be minimised and mitigated. Further, we are satisfied that the agreed conditions provide an appropriate range of performance standards, monitoring and response processes that will ensure that the effects of the project remain within the predicted levels. We are also satisfied that the agreed conditions accommodate the matters sought by submitters to an appropriate extent, and correctly distinguish between the anticipated maximum building damage effects anticipated by submitters within, and outside, the predicted settlement contours. 102. Overall, we find that the groundwater, settlement and potential building damage effects from the project will be negligible to minor, and will be appropriately managed and mitigated through implementation of conditions. Effects from Earthworks on Built Heritage 103. The proposed works are within the Heritage Overlay for the CPO (12 Queen Street) and are also within close proximity of several other scheduled historic places. The applicant has provided a Built Heritage Risk Assessment Summary concerning each of these buildings, which have been assessed to fall within the “Negligible” to “Slight” damage classifications under the Burland damage classification categories which corresponds to aesthetic damage only. 104. As a result of strengthening work carried out on the CPO, and given the recommended conditions of consent, differential movement and settlement in this City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

area is very unlikely; in addition, post-construction monitoring will be undertaken for a minimum of three months after completion of construction. 105. The Commissioners accept that the effects from the proposed earthworks on identified heritage buildings within 20m of the Heritage Overlay in the PAUP will be appropriately avoided, remedied or mitigated subject to the recommended consent conditions. 106. Specific heritage issues raised by submitters have been addressed by the applicant. Adverse Effects – Summary and Conclusion 107. In summary, construction of the Project will give rise to a range of temporary adverse environmental effects; some may be more than minor for a limited or longer period. However, when considered overall and in the context of their temporary nature, we agree that the revised and finalised conditions of consent agreed by the applicant, Council officers and those submitters present at the hearing, and, in particular the monitoring and mitigation measures, will ensure that actual and potential effects can be avoided, remedied or adequately mitigated. 108. In conclusion, we find that the actual and potential effects from this project, including dust, sediment, contamination, ground settlement, water quality, public health, built heritage effects from earthworks, construction traffic and noise effects are temporary in nature and can be avoided, remedied or mitigated through implementation of the consent conditions. 109. The positive effects from the proposal must not be overlooked, particularly realising the potential of the existing infrastructure and unlocking the Auckland rail network by enabling Britomart to become a through station rather than a terminus station. 110. The proposal has been assessed against the provisions of the relevant planning documents in the application details, in the section 42A report and in the evidence of Ms Carvill. In the latter statement it is pointed out the project requires resource consent pursuant to the following regional plans and unitary plan: 

Auckland Council Regional Plan: Air, Land, Water 2013 (ACRP: ALW);



Auckland Council Regional Plan: Sediment Control 2001 (ACRP: SC);



Proposed Auckland Unitary Plan 2013 (PAUP).

111. In addition, resource consent is required pursuant to the Resource Management (National Environmental Standard for Assessing and Managing Contaminants and Soil to Protect Human Health) Regulations 2011 (NESSoil). The resource consents required are land use consents, water permits and discharge permits and, in addition, the land use consent pursuant to the NESSoil to disturb soil. 112. It is also relevant to note, as is covered in another part of this decision, that the area surrounding the project corridor is occupied by a number of identified heritage buildings that are potentially affected and works are also proposed within City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

a scheduled historic heritage place (the Chief Post Office). Further, part of the project corridor runs through a scheduled site of significance to mana whenua (Ngahu Wera) and within 20m of another scheduled site of significance (Nga Wharau a Tako). 113. We note that in applying the most restrictive activity status, which was the common approach of the Council’s reporting officer and the expert witnesses at the hearing, that when bundled, the overall activity status for the resource consent applications is discretionary. 114. We find that the proposal is consistent with the above listed planning documents in providing for a public work with benefits to the City while also appropriately managing the potential adverse effects arising from its construction. The CRL benefits include:  Increased train movements on the Auckland rail network by developing Britomart as a through station and unlocking the current capacity constraint.  Improved commuter access to the city centre.  Building on the benefits of existing investment in the electrification of Auckland’s rail network.  Freeing up road space for freight and other trips.  Creating new transport hubs around the underground railway stations with complementary opportunities for a range of land use activities. 115. The range of potential adverse effects arise out of earthworks, flooding, ground settlement and associated effects on heritage values, contaminated land, groundwater quality, stormwater quality, dust, and effects on cultural values. The evidence of the experts providing input to the project, and evidence provided by others, demonstrated to us that these potential effects can be appropriately managed. In particular, standard and specific mitigation measures will be implemented through a range of management plans, and remediation is proposed where necessary to address effects on structures resulting from ground settlement. 116. In all of the above respects, we find the application to be consistent with the relevant planning documents. Any other matters 117. We also considered the following other matters to be relevant and reasonably necessary to determine the application in accordance with section 104(1)(c) of the RMA:  The Auckland Plan sets out the vision for Auckland over the next 30 years and seeks to address relevant issues. The Commissioners accept that the proposal to construct a piece of the CRL infrastructure directly supports the vision contained in the Auckland Plan to improve and complete the existing road and railway network. City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

 Submissions have all been reviewed by the Commissioners and considered in the assessment of the Project.  No comments were received from the Waitemata or the Albert-Eden Local Boards.  The applicant has confirmed that an Archaeological Authority will be sought from Heritage NZ pursuant to the Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Act 2014. Other relevant RMA provisions Matters relevant to discharge and coastal permits – s105 118. The proposal requires consents to discharge contaminants to air and to land and water under s15. Under section 105, regard must be had to additional matters for any application for a discharge permit or a coastal permit that would contravene s15 or s15B of the RMA. The Commissioners agree with the reporting planner that the proposal satisfies the matters set out in section 105 for the reasons set out in her report. Restrictions on discharge permits – s107 119. Regard must be had to the restriction on the granting of certain discharge permits that would contravene sections 15 or 15A. Section 107 states that a discharge permit cannot be granted to do something that would otherwise contravene section 15 allowing the discharge of a contaminant or water into water, if, after reasonable mixing, the contaminant or water discharged is likely to give rise to all or any of stated effects in the receiving waters. The Commissioners are satisfied that the proposal satisfies the provisions of section 107. Conditions of resource consents – s108 120. Conditions of consent have been set out below. PART 2 RMA – PURPOSE AND PRINCIPLES 121. We find that the proposal is consistent with Part 2 of the RMA because: 

The completed CRL will provide for the social and economic wellbeing of people and communities in Auckland by improving transport access into and around the city centre, improving the efficiency and resilience of the transport network of urban Auckland, contributing to increasing Auckland’s economic growth and providing a sustainable transport solution that minimizes environmental impacts.



The conditions included as part of the consent will ensure the adverse effects on the environment will be appropriately avoided, remedied or mitigated. In particular, a range of construction mitigation measures will be implemented through an approved CEMP, along with a range of key management and monitoring plans.



The matters raised by submitters have been given particular attention through the discussion during the hearing regarding the inclusion of conditions of consent that have regard to submitters’ concerns.



There are no identified outstanding natural features and landscapes, areas of significant vegetation and significant habitats of indigenous fauna that must be protected in the project area.



The applicant has supplied a supporting Heritage Impact Assessment and additional information that has been reviewed by Council’s Principal, Built Heritage Specialist who has concluded that the potential effects on the scheduled structures will be minor subject to appropriate conditions of consent. We agree with that assessment and review and with the evidence presented for the applicant and Heritage New Zealand. Conditions are accordingly included as part of this decision and as such, the protection of historic heritage will be ensured.



The construction techniques and practices, coupled with conditions on the consent, will appropriately minimize potential and actual adverse effects on the environment. As such, the project represents an efficient use and development of natural and physical resources and serves to maintain and enhance both amenity values and the quality of the environment.



Given the extent of consultation undertaken with Mana Whenua, the requirements of sections 6(e), 7(a), 7(aa), and 8 of the RMA have been provided for and had regard to. In particular, there has been engagement with eight Mana Whenua groups who have self-identified an interest in the project and that engagement has been on-going via the CRL Mana Whenua Forum and targeted hui. Accidental discovery protocols and consent conditions will enable the relationship of Mana Whenua with any unidentified archaeological sites within the project site to occur. In addition, the applicant has stated that on-going consultation and engagement will continue through all stages of planning and construction.

Decision 122. In exercising our delegation under sections 34 and 34A of the RMA and having regard to the foregoing matters, sections 104, 104B, 105, 106, 107 and 108 and Part 2 of the RMA, we determine that the resource consents be granted subject to the conditions set out below. The resource consents granted by this decision are collectively a discretionary activity and provide for the construction of the Britomart Station to Wyndham Street section of the proposed City Rail Link. The respective resource consents are land use consents, water permits and discharge permits which are referenced as R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436 and R/REG/2014/543. The location is the lower part of the central business district of Auckland City comprising the Britomart Station and parts of Lower Queen Street, Customs Street West, Wolfe Street, Victoria Street West, Albert Street and Wyndham Street. City Rail Link Application Nos.: R/REG/2014/5430, R/LUC/2014/5428, R/REG/2014/5432, R/REG/2014/5435, R/REG/2014/5436, R/REG/2014/5437

Reasons for the decision 123. The reasons for this decision are covered in the discussion above in this decision report but can be summarised as follows: 

Overall, the proposal enables people to provide for their economic and, in turn, social wellbeing as the CRL will improve transport access into and around the city centre and improve the efficiency and resilience of the transport network of urban Auckland. It will therefore contribute to increasing Auckland’s economic growth and further, provide a sustainable transport solution that minimizes environmental impacts.



The effects associated with the project, including dust, sediment, contamination, settlement, water quality, earthworks with respect to heritage, construction, traffic, construction noise, utility disruption and flood capacity changes are found to be temporary in nature and can be appropriately avoided, remedied or mitigated through implementation of a certified CEMP. That includes the specific certified management plans and other conditions of the consent.



The particular concerns of submitters have been addressed through conditions of consent that address matters potentially impacting on identified properties.



The project has been found to not be contrary to the relevant provisions and policy statements, plans and proposed plans that are relevant and as prepared under the RMA.



The proposal has been assessed with regard to the relevant Part 2 matters and found to be consistent with the purpose and principles of the RMA as included as this part of it.
