The ambient air quality monitoring at the site showed that levels of carbon monoxide, combustible gases,
PM10 particulates, nitrogen oxides and the volatile organic compounds benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and

During the period under review, Todd Petroleum demonstrated an overall high level of both environmental
performance and administrative compliance with the resource consents. There were no unauthorised
incidents recorded by the Council in relation to Todd Petroleum’s activities. The
discharges from the sites complied with consent conditions at
the time. Receiving water inspections and sampling showed that the discharges were not causing any
adverse effects on the Waitara River or Mangahewa Stream at the time of monitoring.
Biomonitoring in the Mangahewa Stream found similar numbers of taxa to previous surveys. Hydrocarbons
from historical contamination were found at increased concentrations in the sediment at all three sites
during the February survey. Although the levels
