1.1.3 The Resource Management Act 1991 and monitoring
The RMA primarily addresses environmental ‘effects’ which are defined as positive or adverse, temporary or
permanent, past, present or future, or cumulative. Effects may arise in relation to:
a. the neighbourhood or the
the
Waingongoro catchment. Until May 2014, the site was known as Riverlands Eltham. The plant has an
associated wastewater treatment system from which treated effluent is disposed of either to land or to
surface water. This report covers the Company’s processing season from October 2020 to September 2021
and describes the monitoring programme implemented by the Taranaki Regional Council (the Council) to

unwelcome than others! The most undesirable are governed by two pieces of legislation, the Regional Pest
Management plan for Taranaki (2018) and the National Pest Plant Accord (2020). There are additional
notes in the plant lists for these species that indicate their classification.
