Dear Auckland Council,

By way of LGOIMA please provide information as to the

1. noise constraints they are subject to
2. What are the normal decibel limits for noise is in this area.
3. What exceptions they have to the provisions.
4. Was the drilling application a modifiable activity if so has it been notified
5. Will the council be monitoring the effects of the drilling,( noise vibration etc ) on the environment
6. And with regards to vibration will council be ensuring that no damage is done to residents buildings due to vibration.
I request this under the urgency provisions as I believe that drilling is to commence soon
