their resilience too, and as a
region, we’ll continue to rise to the challenge.

The bottom line
The changing environment has impacted our budget with spending now forecast to be $46.8m (compared with
$45.2m signalled in the 2021/2031 Long-Term Plan). As a result, general rates will move from the proposed 5.5%
to 7.9% for 2022/2023, which for most ratepayers will be less than $20 per annum extra. Targeted rates remain
consistent with those
of flows enabling accurate and complete
ratings to be maintained.
• Processing data for all assigned sites and associated parameters
in accordance with Taranaki Regional Council procedure and
relevant NEMS (National Environmental Monitoring Standards).
• Completion of all assigned compliance monitoring
responsibilities.
• Assist the Science and Technology leadership team to develop
and implement yearly work programmes, goals, KPI’s, and
assessing the effectiveness of the work
can result in substantial changes in sediment regimes.
Streams in pastureland generally have a greater sediment yield than those under forested areas
(Davis-Colley, 1997). National literature of erosion rates in New Zealand suggest erosion rates are
between 3 – 11 times higher in catchments under pasture than those under forest, and sediment
yields are 50 – 80 % higher in pastureland than forested catchments (Basher, 2013). The processes
operating on Mount Taranaki may be contrary to this,
that there may be other chances for Transport Choices funding and Public
Transport opportunities.
• Inflation has had a large impact, with cut backs in place to ensure rate payers are
not having to pay extra. Low cost low risk programmes have been deferred.
• The coastal walkway extension has had all Iwi informed with handover to follow
soon.
• An incident occurred involving a tree falling in Ōakura, resulted in NPDC being
found liable for the damage due to the tree’s position and

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.
1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and administrative performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the consent holders,
this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s
tailored monitoring programmes, while for another 96 (10%) of the consents a good level of environmental
performance and compliance was achieved. A further 27 (3%) of consents monitored required improvement
in their performance, while the remaining one (<1%) achieved a rating of poor.
In terms of overall environmental and compliance performance by the consent holder over the last several
years, this report shows that the consent holder’s performance in relation to the cleanfilling operation has

In terms of overall environmental and compliance performance by the consent holders over the last several
years, this report shows that, with the exception of Port Taranaki, the performances of the port industries
have remained at a high level. Port Taranaki’s performance has improved compared to last monitoring year.
