page 5 The computer controller will not allow the cremator to be charged unless the temperature in the secondary chamber reaches 650°C and a two-second residence time is achieved. Data on residence time, emission levels, furnace pressure and rates of temperature change are used to continuously check and adjust controls to ensure maximum efficiency. A feature of the Newton cremator is a water curtain charging system. This spray system retards the start of the cremation

summer-autumn under low flow conditions during the monitoring period (at which time the Waverley system was being desludged with bio-bugs, the Manaia system had been upgraded with the addition of two wetlands, the Kaponga pond subsurface discharge rate was very low and receiving water dilution very high, and the Patea upgraded ponds system discharged continuously), or on other occasions when monitoring of impacts was required by specific consent conditions. This monitoring continued the increased
problem • We have used t-tests to determine whether two percentages are different from each other. With each t-test that is done, we incur a probability of a Type I error (rejection of a true null hypothesis or in other words ‘false positive’). The probability of committing a Type I error is the significance level of the test, which is set to 5%. When doing multiple tests, the Type I error rate is inflated. We have used the false discovery rate (FDR) method to control the expected proportion

consent holders, this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance during the period under review.

isolation valves have been installed on the disposal lines for use should it be necessary to remove the disposal line valves for maintenance. An accessible sampling site has been constructed at the end of the disposal trenches. STDC reported that a sludge survey of the oxidation pond (in January 2006) indicated that at the current rate of accumulation, sludge removal would not be required for another 11 years. An updated Management Plan (July 2007) was supplied by the consent holder for the
