NH3 unionised ammonia, normally expressed in terms of the mass of nitrogen (N) NO3 nitrate, normally expressed in terms of the mass of nitrogen (N) NTU Nephelometric Turbidity Unit, a measure of the turbidity of water O&G oil and grease, defined as anything that will dissolve into a particular organic solvent (e.g. hexane). May include both animal material (fats) and mineral matter (hydrocarbons) Pb* lead pH a numerical system for measuring acidity in solutions, with 7 as neutral. Numbers lower than 7 are increasingly acidic and higher than 7 are increasingly alkaline. The scale is logarithmic i.e. a change of 1 represents a ten-fold change in strength. For example, a pH of 4 is ten times more acidic than a pH of 5. Physicochemical measurement of both physical properties(e.g. temperature, clarity, density) and chemical determinants ( e.g. metals and nutrients) to characterise the state of an environment PM10 98 relatively fine airborne particles (less than 10 micrometre diameter resource consent refer Section 87 of the RMA. Resource consents include land use consents (refer Sections 9 and 13 of the RMA), coastal permits (Sections 12, 14 and 15), water permits (Section 14) and discharge permits (Section 15) RMA Resource Management Act 1991 and subsequent amendments SS suspended solids, Temp temperature, measured in °C (degrees Celsius) Turb turbidity, expressed in NTU UIR Unauthorised Incident Register entry- an event recorded by the Council on the basis that it had potential or actual environmental consequences that may represent a breach of a consent or provision in a Regional Plan Zn* zinc *an abbreviation for a metal or other analyte may be followed by the letters 'As', to denote the amount of metal recoverable in acidic conditions. This is taken as indicating the total amount of metal that might be solubilised under extreme environmental conditions. The abbreviation may alternatively be followed by the letter 'D', denoting the amount of the metal present in dissolved form rather than in particulate or solid form.
