pesticide analysis, two biomonitoring surveys of receiving waters, and a marine ecology inspection. The Company provided groundwater and air quality monitoring data which was carried out by independent consultants. The monitoring showed that DAS has had no significant impact on air quality in the vicinity of the plant or on water quality in the Herekawe Stream. No complaint in relation to DAS’s activities was registered by the Council. There were no Unauthorised Incidents recording

number of events recorded for Taranaki during 2013 for agencies which provided this information (five of the six) was 249; and the total volume reported (by four of the six agencies) was 967m3. NZTA did not specifically record illegal dumping on or around state highways prior to the meeting in February 2013, and thought it only occurred occasionally. Since then, they have discovered the extent of the problem (84 events recorded). The number of events per capita by district, including records
temperature in the Kaupokonui Stream reached 24.8°C. Riparian planting was maintained on the farms and factory site and a donation was received by the Council as per consent conditions. page Irrigation onto the two dairy farms was, in general, well managed, including the new dairy shed effluent. Nitrogen loading on the farms was reduced due to a decrease in loading from factory wastewater. No effect from irrigation was found during inspection, sampling or biological monitoring of
marine ecological survey, analysis of mussels for norovirus and heavy metals (two, two site surveys for norovirus and one, three site survey for metals), and additional groundwater monitoring associated with the sludge lagoon. Norovirus levels in mussels at Waiwhakaiho Reef varied from low to high during the monitoring period. There were no other significant detectable effects in the receiving environment resulting from or potentially associated with authorised discharges from the plant.
