operational cost of Yarrow Stadium is met by NPDC through rates funding. Over time growing utilisation at Yarrow Stadium is projected to increase revenue, and while in some cases increased event hosting will result in increased cost, reducing the operation subsidy needed from the ratepayer is the goal. Strategies through which this will be achieved include: • Develop a comprehensive business plan. • Increase opportunities for commercial signage revenue and naming rights,

disposed of at the Colson Rd landfill in 2009 and 2010 was over 61,000 tonnes per year which seems a lot and indeed it is, but to many of us that amount is hard to visualize. When we equate it to a per person basis, it is 584 kilograms each. When we compare that figure to the rate per person in New Zealand of 790 kilograms per person we are doing pretty well. It is expected that these figures will decrease in the future through waste minimisation initiatives. This landfill

rodents and possums in urban areas where there is co-ordinated pest control. Monitored bush reserves in New Plymouth with regular rodent control recently achieved a monitoring rate of less than 10% (rodent tracking rate). Although there is still work to do, this is considerably lower than the 40-50% regularly recorded in small rural bush remnants (<50ha), or the over 75% recorded in large areas of contiguous bush (>300ha) without effective rat control. Rat abundance in

washwater and stormwater to minimise the requirement to abstract surface water. Often when combined with efficient recycling, the small volumes of surface water required to be abstracted for washing at quarries fit within the permitted activity rule [Rule 15] of the Regional Fresh Water Plan for Taranaki. That is, the abstraction volume shall not exceed 50 cubic metres per day, and the abstraction rate shall not exceed 1.5 litres per second. Vickers Quarries Limited holds no
