Except as noted below the Council is achieving all the measures and targets established in the 2017/2018 Annual Plan.
The following performance measures are noted as being orange. That is, performance to date is at risk of not achieving the target or

incidents and take appropriate enforcement action.
Supply 450,000 riparian plants each year, with the aim of
completing the Taranaki Riparian Management Programme
by 2020.
Work with landowners, and other groups to enhance the
region’s indigenous biodiversity.
Control or eradicate pest animals and plants.
Provide passenger transport services in urban New
Plymouth and regional Taranaki.
Enhance the comprehensive civil defence emergency
management system in Taranaki.
Complete
continuing the improvement shown by
the previous season. Very few high counts were recorded during the 2011-2012 season.
One site (Te Henui Stream near East End beach) recorded all of its single samples in either
the ‘Alert’ or the ‘Action’ mode of the MfE, 2003 guidelines. DNA marker tracking
confirmed the principal contribution to be the wildfowl populations although there were
background contributions from cattle and occasionally human sources. Previously this site
had been monitored
repeated on Thursday 15 October this year. Every
region in New Zealand experiences earthquakes
and none is safe from them or from other local
hazards. Having a definite plan to handle an
emergency, while not necessarily preventing it
from happening, gives everyone a better chance
of lessening its damage, reducing the possible
injuries and the potential loss of lives.
Term one is traditionally our rock pool season
and this year looks to be no exception. If you are

Proposed
tracking, confirmed the principal contribution to be
the wildfowl populations. Twelve other sites exhibited occasional single sample entries into
the ‘Alert’ or ‘Action’ modes of the 2003 guidelines at some time during the season.
However, eight sites’ counts entered the ‘Action’ mode, a small increase in the frequency of
exceedances in comparison with previous survey seasons’ results. To a certain extent these
exceedances were probably a feature common to the mid and lower reaches of rivers and
native fish and invertebrates.
Ecological Values
Sustainability - Positive In good vegetative condition and large in area. Key ecological
processes still influence the site. Under appropriate management,
the site can remain resilient to existing or potential threats.
Representativeness - Medium Contains an ecosystem type listed as 'At Risk' (MF7-3 Tawa,
pukatea, podocarp forest). Over 70% of this type of forest has been
lost in Taranaki and remnant areas

The Council has just completed its annual
recognition of the special environmental
efforts made by individuals, professional or
community groups, companies, local
authorities and schools. Nine awards were
made this year with three of them going to
schools. Congratulations to the students, the
staff and the school communities of Oakura,
