GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF WORKS

THE Wheao hydro-electric scheme utilises water diverted from the Rangitaiki River by a canal supplemented by water diverted from the Upper Wheao River by means of a tunnel into the Flaxy Creek reservoir and hence by a pipeline into the main canal. The combined flow is then passed through a generating station in the gorge of the Wheao River with a hydraulic head of 130 metres.

WORKS involved in the scheme include the following:

(a) Dam the Rangitaiki River at about Lands and Survey N.Z. Topographical 1:63,360 (1 inch to 1 mile) Series N.Z.M.S.1 map reference N95:969439 Block XIII, Wheao S.D., to form a small lake and construct intake, settling pond and sluice gates. Divert up to 21 cumes into a 4,800 metre canal terminating in a forebay and the Wheao Power Station penstocks.

(b) Dam the Wheao River at about map reference N95:015381 Block III, Heruiwi S.D., to form a small lake and construct spillway. Divert up to 12 cumes through a tunnel into a lake formed by damming Flaxy Creek at map reference N95:000400.

(c) Dam Flaxy Creek at map reference N95:003407, Block XIV, Wheao S.D., to form about a 20 hectare lake and construct spillway. Divert up to 12 cumes from the lake through a gate and pipeline into the Rangitaiki Canal at about map reference N95:009438.

(d) Discharge up to 24 cumes from the canal at about map reference N95:023436 into two penstocks and utilise the 130 metre hydraulic head in the Wheao powerhouse with two turbine-generators having a combined rated capacity of 24,000 kW together with all necessary associated equipment including inlet valves, switchgear, transformers, transmission line termination, etc.

(e) Discharge up to 24 cumes from the powerhouse tail-race into the Wheao River at about map reference N95:027437 Block XIV, Wheao S.D.
