Inspection visits typically comprised of:
• a visual inspection of the abstraction bore, production pipework monitoring equipment and
associated infrastructure; and
• obtaining manual measurements of groundwater levels in the abstraction and monitoring bores and
retrieving electronic data.
To monitor the exercising of consent 7470-1.2, abstraction volume and rate data are recorded electronically
at the site by a data logging system and transferred to the Council via telemetry,
the Meeting of Waters. The results suggest an impact from the increased rate of
take allowed by the variation of consent 2053 since 2016.
The Company has struggled to provide regular and timely updates on progress made towards monitoring
sedimentation within the lake in this monitoring period. Due to the late submission of a lake sedimentation
report during the writing of this report, a compliance assessment on the work undertaken by the Company
to date has not yet been made in this
environmental
performance and a good level of administrative performance. There were seven incidents
logged in regards to exceedance of abstraction rates by STDC plants, however these all were
found to be caused by operational events, such pump starts, air in the flow meters, and data
handling errors rather than actual non-compliances and/or sustained abstraction exceedances.
During the monitoring period, OWSL demonstrated an overall high level of environmental
performance and high level of

1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and administrative performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the Company, this
report also assigns them a rating for their environmental and administrative performance during the period
under review.
Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the receiving environment from the
activities during the monitoring year. Administrative performance is …
continually refined and enhanced.
THE BOTTOM LINE
The Council finished the 2017/2018 year with a surplus
of $962,000 (total comprehensive income). Total
expenditure was $26.6m. Overall it was a good result,
noting that the general rates increases have been at or
below the rate of inflation for the past few years (a 1%
general rates increase in 2017/2018). The Council’s
balance sheet remains very strong, with no public debt.
All of the achievements outlined here
Overall it was

We gratefully acknowledge the efforts and
achievements of council staff during the year, ably
governed by a team of Councillors providing clear
direction, consistent with our mission.

administrative performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the consent holder,
this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance during
the period under review. The rating categories are high, good, improvement required and poor for both
environmental and administrative performance. The interpretations for these ratings are found in
Appendix II.
