• A respectful and responsible regard for the Taranaki region’s environment and our
management of its natural resources. Reporting allows evaluation and
demonstration of the overall rate of compliance by sector and by consent holders as
a whole, and of trends in the improvement of our environment.
• The Council’s accountability and transparency. Reporting gives validity to
investment in monitoring and to assessments of effective intervention.

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 remains at a good level.

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
maintenance of minimum residual flows,
provision of abstraction records and all other general conditions of their consent(s).
Monitoring found the majority of takes being well managed and operating within relevant consent
conditions during the 2021-2022 period. The Council was required to enter three incidents in relation to
irrigation consents over this period, with all non-compliances deemed sufficiently minor not to warrant
further action from Council. The overall rate of non-compliance

monthly emission results and abstraction records were provided to the Council which were reviewed.
The monitoring showed that the Stratford Power Station continued to be well managed with negligible
environmental effects as a process of the exercise of their consents.
Surface water abstraction was compliant with daily rate and volume. Process water discharges were
compliant with consent defined parameters. Surface water monitoring indicated negligible
