Mangaoraka Stream at
Corbett Road and Punehu Stream at SH45). Significant deteriorations in black disc clarity
were recorded at three sites, two of which reflected historical erosion events in the
headwaters.
The most improvement in long term water quality has been illustrated in the Waingongoro
River at SH 45, with significantly improving trends in DRP and total phosphorus, and with
reduction in nitrate and total nitrogen by slightly less than the rate defined as significant.
This improvement

are minimised and do not have adverse effects on the Haehanga Stream;

frequency. There were one or more wells
with pesticides detected in 6 of the 13 participating regions (Table 4), with regional detection
rates varying from 0 to 83% (note that the higher rates were for a small number of sampled
wells). Pesticides were not detected in sampled wells from Bay of Plenty (25 wells) and
Hawkes Bay (14 wells). In 28 of these wells (10%) two or more pesticides were detected
(Table 4). The maximum number of pesticides detected in one well was six. Twenty-five

1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and consent performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by
the consent holder during the period under review, this report also assigns a rating as
to Origin’s environmental and
development of the region’s resources.
1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and administrative performance
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 the Company’s environmental and administrative performance.

Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the receiving
environment from the activities
in a
regional plan, or it falls within some particular categories set out in Section 14.
The Council determined that the application to take groundwater fell within Rule 49
of the Regional Freshwater Plan for Taranaki (RFWP) as the rate and daily volume of
the groundwater abstraction might exceed that of the permitted activity (Rule 48).
Rule 49 provides for groundwater abstraction as a controlled activity, subject to two
conditions:
• The abstraction shall cause not more than a 10%
within some particular categories set out in Section 14.
Greymouth Petroleum Limited was unable to estimate the rate or volume at which
formation (produced) water might be taken during exploration, and might exceed
the limits of the permitted activity Rule [Rule 48 of the RFWP]. The taking of
groundwater therefore falls for consideration under Rule 49 of the RFWP as a
controlled activity.
The standards of Rule 49 require that:
• The abstraction shall cause not more than a 10%
resources.
1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and administrative performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the Company, this
report also assigns them a rating for their environmental and administrative performance during the period
under review.
Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the receiving environment from the
activities during the monitoring year. Administrative performance is concerned with the
