Complete
consenting process is becoming more streamlined with ongong
system improvements being made to manage consenting risks and to reduce costs (e.g., on-line resource consent applications). Consent
processing guidelines are also being reviewed. There have been no objections or appeals against consent decisions. The 100% consent
processing timeframe compliance has been maintained, meaning activities are not being delayed.

This QOR presents the achievement of the programmes of work established by the Council in the 2017/2018 Annual Plan.
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

temperature fluctuations, which can result in lower animal
performance. For example, heat stress can result in reduced
milk synthesis and/or meat and fibre production (growth
rate).
Most cultivars of perennial ryegrass are now available with
or without endophyte, although there is a trade-off between
plant persistence and animal performance. For example,
high producing (low endophyte) pasture is susceptible to
ASW damage.
New research is looking at developing endophytes that are

If not all the icons are
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
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

them of our requirements. This system is
working well; thank you for your co-operation.
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,
