This is principally because, based on the
descriptions of the heating and ventilation systems, in my opinion, odour emission
rates will be lower and have the potential to be considerably lower than the
standard emission rate factors used for modelling odour from the chicken sheds.
38 In my view, the odour dispersion modelling results can also be calibrated using the
knowledge of complaints, compliance, and onsite odour observations, which
indicate a generally low level of

1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental 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 the Partnership’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.
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 …

February 2021, when a moderately high discharge rate of well-treated wastewater characterised this system.
No significant impacts of the effluent discharge were indicated by MCI scores through the reach of the river

NPDC provided all the abstraction data required under consent conditions and this showed that all daily
