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 wider community around an activity, and may include cultural and social-
economic effects;
b. physical effects on the locality,
adverse effects on the environment resulting from the exercise of the air discharge consents.
The ambient air quality monitoring at the production station showed that levels of carbon monoxide,
combustible gases, PM10 particulates, and nitrogen oxides were all below levels of concern at the time of
sampling. No offensive or objectionable odours were detected beyond the boundary during inspections.
During the year, Todd Energy demonstrated an overall high level of both environmental performance

Ambient air quality monitoring at the Turangi Production Station showed that levels of carbon monoxide,
combustible gases, PM10 particulates, and nitrogen oxides were all below levels of concern at the time of
sampling. No offensive or objectionable odours were detected beyond the boundary during inspections.
Monitoring undertaken at the Turangi-B wellsite found evidence of stormwater discharging directly to the
Parahaki Stream. An abatement notice was

good
level of environmental performance and high level of administrative performance.
There was a breach of consent conditions due to high suspended solids in the discharge. The effects on the
receiving waters were negligible or minor at most and the consent holder was quick to respond and address
the issues.
For reference, in the 2020-2021 year, consent holders were found to achieve a high level of environmental
performance and compliance for 86% of the consents monitored through the
2020 (NPS-UD) to provide for sufficient development capacity. The Council also
owns one of the properties that is located within 400m of the Poultry Farm.
The three issues these submissions address are:
a) activity status and relevant assessment considerations;
b) the sensitivity of the receiving environment;
c) potential adverse effects, and the best method for preventing or
minimising adverse effects on the environment.

East Stand revealed
Yarrow Stadium’s new East Stand has been
revealed with the release of artist’s
