Oil Services Ltd. Water samples were collected for
physicochemical analysis on selected inspections.
During the period under review, Port Taranaki Ltd obtained a ‘good’ rating for environmental and ‘high
rating’ for administrative performance and compliance with the resource consents.
Suspended solids in two samples marginally exceeded the consent limits during first flush. This was due to
heavy rain conditions at times when log loading onsite was in full operation. There were no
slopes and stream terraces.
The remnant is of a native forest type that is classified as 'Chronically Threatened' in Taranaki and falls
within an 'Acutely Threatened' Land Environment (LENZ) F5.2a. Remnants such as this provide
important habitat for rare and threatened species. Allerby's Bush also offers good connectivity to other
nearby habitats, covenants and Key Native Ecosystems in the area such as the Everett Park Scenic
Reserve KNE.

Operations and Regulatory Agenda 30 April 2024
take from the Pātea. At the WTP located on Cardiff
Road, water is filtered using membrane filters and then treated with chlorine and fluoride for domestic
supply before being pumped to a nearby reservoir. The water supply is reticulated to approximately 2,300
separate customers.
Filter backwash is discharged via a large pond. The outlet from the pond is an inverted pipe located at the
opposite end of the pond from the inlet. The discharge from the pond emerges from the pipe to fall over a
80
percent compliance as the target, and if employees fall below that rate, the Port supports them to get
back on track.
The Port also promotes employee skills and capability through industry memberships, secondments,
conferences, leadership development, and individual mentoring programmes. Furthermore, the Port
provides cybersecurity and biodiversity training, and it has supported three MBAs over the last four
years, with two more in progress. Lastly, the Port develops
