The report includes the results and findings of the monitoring programme implemented by the Council in
respect of the consents held by the Company that relate to discharges of water within the Manawapou
rate. However,
land that is used sustainably is less susceptible to erosion. Therefore, practices such as land retirement,
planting vegetation in areas prone to erosion, and managing stock appropriately all work to minimise
pressure on land resources, and ultimately ensure the region’s precious soil resource stays on the land. The
Council monitors sustainable land use in areas of the region prone to erosion, predominantly the eastern hill
country and coastal sand areas. Long-term data

Green waste from a Hawera based contractor is transported to the site and discharged over
areas of sandy pasture that have undergone aeolian erosion. The green waste helps trap soil
and sand and upon decomposition, adds nutrients and condition to the sandy soils.
