and removing it off site as baleage removes significant amounts of nitrogen from the system; • A review of six analytes sampled in monitoring bores showed that the ground water leaving the Uruti catchment is generally in better condition than groundwater entering the composting site; • Nitrogen leached from the root zone on a whole farm basis varies only slightly between scenarios due to the large farm area and the significant area that is fallow/in bush and scrub. • From the
Galvanizers Limited demonstrated an overall high level of environmental performance. The Council’s monitoring programme for the year under review included two inspections and seven water samples collected for physicochemical analysis. Elevated zinc concentrations were recorded in the receiving waters upstream and downstream of the Company’s discharge. The historical disposal of galvanising waste materials into a bore on the Company’s site is considered to be the most likely source of zinc
to these recognised ecosystems has been taken into account in the setting of buffer distances and location of the stockpiling facilities. The predominant soil type has been identified as black loamy sand and vegetation growth is primarily a mixture of pasture and dune grasses. Test pitting and the logging of boreholes on site indicated a relatively shallow water table. Test bores were augured to 10 m in the pit area, revealing extensive compacted, low permeable clays underlying coastal
three monitoring bores complied with consent limits. There were a total of 44 Unauthorised Incidents (UI’s) recorded in the Waiwhakaiho catchment during the period under review, 36 of which were substantiated at the time of investigation. 12 of the incidents were in the area covered by this monitoring programme, with consented industries monitored under the Lower Waiwhakaiho Catchment Monitoring Programme accounting for 9 of these unauthorised discharges. During the year under review,
indicated in similarity to the previous monitoring period, the 2014-15 year, the groundwater in the immediate vicinity of the former storage cell is still impacted by elevated salinity concentrations and trace benzene. The saline plume may be migrating slowly northwards, as a down gradient bore had detailed an elevation in saline parameters as well as trace benzene. At the same time, the up gradient bore had indicated a slight decrease in salinity concentration. As in previous monitoring years,

out. Upgrades are likely to take place to direct clean water from the road away to the sand trap. The monitoring bores had yet to be installed. It was communicated to ensure that this is completed prior to 31 August 2021, as required by abatement notice EAC-23255 and EAC-23272. 09 April 2021 A routine compliance monitoring inspection was undertaken for the air discharge and land discharge consents held by the Company. The irrigator was operational at the time of inspection and
with exception of one ammoniacal nitrogen result, all of the samples collected from the three monitoring bores complied with consent limits. There were six unauthorised incidents recorded that were associated with the consents covered by this report, one of which resulted in an abatement notice being issued. There were a further four incidents associated with actual or potential discharges to water within the lower Waiwhakaiho industrial area, of which one was found to be breaching regional
