from the weekly and monthly monitoring.
NPDC monitors both the incoming wastewater and the treated wastewater
discharged from the WWWTP, for both chemical and microbiological parameters,
and analyses for various parameters at both weekly and monthly intervals. The
volume of incoming wastewater is measured and recorded continuously. The
treated effluent discharged has continuous measurement of flow rate and pH.

discussion of the effects of total allocation. The allocation in any consents is usually for the
maximum take and the sum of maximum takes for all consents is the total allocation. In practice,
most consent holders only abstract at a maximum rate for a short period of time. For example,
irrigation takes only take water in the summer and only at peak rates when it is necessary. Actual
takes are usually about 50% of the total allocation (MfE 2015). Total allocation, as

enables the Council to continually re-evaluate its approach
and that of consent holders to resource management and, ultimately, through the refinement of methods
and considered responsible resource utilisation, to move closer to achieving sustainable development of the
region’s resources.

Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by
the consent holder/s during the period under review, this report also assigns a rating
as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance.
Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the receiving

Since the time of human settlement of New Zealand, much of the region’s original
2018-2019 regional NOx study were also presented in this report. The associated analysis
indicated that the neighbouring Kapuni Production station was rated in the ‘good’ category (National
Environmental Standards) for 1 hour averages.
These results, and all regional monitoring to date, have shown that Taranaki has very clean air, and on a
regional basis there are no significant pressures upon the quality of the air resource.
Further, site specific ambient air quality monitoring is proposed
