previously exhaust has also been via end wall fans, which are no longer used for exhaust). The ventilation configuration is to be changed to a system manufactured by DACS with exhaust via chimney roof vents to aid dispersion of emissions. 19 Odour will be emitted from the free-range operation at a lower rate than from conventional broiler (i.e. non free range) operations of an equivalent scale for the following reasons: 1
inspection visits to the site. To monitor the exercising of consent 7470-1.2, abstraction volume and rate data are recorded electronically and transferred to the Council via telemetry, so the data can be viewed in near real time. Three groundwater monitoring bores are monitored to assess the potential effects of the abstraction on local groundwater levels. One of the monitored bores is located within the grounds of Pukekura Park to assess effects down-gradient of the raceway. Groundwater …
abstraction rates/volumes, maintenance of minimum residual flows, provision of abstraction records and all other general conditions of their consent(s). The Council entered a total of 41 incidents over the course of the 2012-2013 period in relation to irrigation consents. This included 18 incidents for breaches of authorised abstraction rates and/or volumes over the course of the irrigation season. Fifteen of these received abatement notices for their non-compliance, while the other three had
circulation conditions (eg asthma, emphysema, heart attack, strokes); over the longer term, increased concentrations correlate with increased cancer rates and premature death rates as well as chronic respiratory illnesses. While the current NES-AQ, set by MfE in 2004, is for fine particulate matter of 10 µm diameter (PM10 ), it is anticipated that the next revision of the NES-AQ will focus on PM2.5, given its higher potential for adverse health effects. As a result, in this report exposure to
structurally new or different in the schedule of administrative charges from that adopted in the 2021/2031 Long-Term Plan. Consent holders, and others that are impacted by these charges, will have a long-term familiarity with the approach to RMA administrative charges. 9. The charge-out rates have been updated, the fixed minimum charges have been updated, the schedules of charges have been updated, and the individual monitoring programme charges have been reviewed and updated. 10.

monitoring, enables the Council to 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 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
showed that overall the NPDC water schemes are well operated and maintained and appeared to be having no adverse effects on the environment. NPDC provided all the abstraction data required under consent conditions and this showed that all daily volume limits and instantaneous abstraction rates were complied with. Self-monitoring of the Inglewood discharge showed less than minor non-compliances with suspended solids limits. However, NPDC has since implemented measures to prevent future …

station is maintained on the stream for the continuous measurement of flow rate and temperature. Silver Fern Farms Ltd (meat processing plant) demonstrated an overall good level of environmental performance. Silver Fern Farms Ltd holds six resource consents, to allow it to maintain a dam in and to take water from the Tawhiti Stream; to discharge to the stream and to land; and to discharge emissions into the air. During the period under review, there was one incident reported in
