for the continuous measurement of flow rate and temperature. Silver Fern Farms Ltd (meat processing plant) demonstrated an overall high level of environmental performance. The Company holds six resource consents, to allow it to maintain a dam in and to take from the Tawhiti Stream; to discharge to the stream and to land; and to discharge emissions into the air. During the period under review, one incident was registered against the site, in relation to flooding behind the dam
were recorded from the physicochemical parameters analysed during the mid-summer survey conducted in February 2019, when a moderately high discharge rate of well-treated wastewater characterised this system. No impacts of the effluent discharge were indicated by MCI scores through the reach of the river surveyed. During the year, STDC demonstrated a high level of environmental and administrative performance with the resource consents held in relation to the Manaia WWTP. The Manaia WWTP was
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 environmental and administrative performance during the period under review. Environmental performance
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. For reference, in the 2021-2022 year, consent holders were found to achieve a high level of environmental performance and compliance for 88% of the consents monitored through the
Park, New Plymouth for recreation, sporting and cultural activities to the advantage of all citizens of the Taranaki region. The stadium’s initial regional funding of $9.6 million was covered by a combination of uniform charges across the region and targeted rates in New Plymouth and North Taranaki. This arrangement ran from July 2001 to June 2012. In 2002 a major redevelopment saw two new grandstands added, the TSB Stand overlooking the main field’s eastern sideline and the Noel and

Administrative performance is concerned with the Company’s approach to demonstrating consent compliance in site operations and management including the timely provision of information to Council (such as contingency plans and water take data) in …
Lake Rotorangi is determined each year, through four water quality monitoring surveys and through phytoplankton surveys (conducted simultaneously with the water quality surveys). A previous benthic invertebrate survey and a three-yearly macrophyte (aquatic weeds) survey conducted in autumn 2015 are also reported, for completeness. Based on these surveys and studies, the lake’s condition continues to be classified as mesotrophic, with a very slow and insignificant rate of increase in trophic
