1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental 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 each Company’s environmental and administrative performance.
Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the
receiving
assessment of the pastures at the three sites.
Site Assessment Rating
Schrider (irrigated)
Ryegrass dominant pasture, vigorous. Very little clover
some showing signs of potassium deficiency. Excreta
patches obvious. Some flats weeds and poor pasture
grasses.
6/10
Geary (irrigated)
Vigorous ryegrass pasture with about 20% clover.
Excreta patches not apparent. Very few weeds.
8/10
Geary (non-irrigated)
Assorted weeds abundant, excreta patches prominent,
Some low value

rate of heat generation depends on the
amount of moisture and oxygen available, and may lead to spontaneous combustion of
the wood shavings and generation of smoke if not controlled.
The storage shed is designed so that the fugitive emissions of gas from the storage of
poultry wastes will not escape the building. Emissions are extracted by a fan and
forced through a biofilter. Biofilters decompose odorous compounds, using micro-
organisms such as bacteria. The use of an extraction fan within
biological monitoring surveys indicated that the discharge of treated stormwater and leachate
discharges from the Colson Road landfill site had not had any significant detrimental effect on the
macroinvertebrate communities of the Puremu and Manganaha Streams, or the unnamed tributary of the
Puremu Stream.
Air quality monitoring showed that there were no significant adverse effects in relation to suspended
particulates, dust deposition rates or odour beyond the site boundary.

of services, there was little or no recycling during April
(Figure 2). The steady declining trend in previous months is due to the summer
holiday period, as there are typically high volumes of kerbside waste and recycling in
December and January compared to the rest of the year.
There were four days of kerbside organics collection in April, as Level 3 was
implemented towards the end of the month. During those four days, there was only a
10% presentation rate for the organic collection for …
