generally maintained in a satisfactory condition, with no significant issues noted during
inspections. Routine monitoring found, under normal plant operation, that the activities at the site were not
having any significant adverse impacts on the receiving environment.
Three incidents occurred during the year which required investigation by Council. The sump at the mixing
chamber where flows from Fonterra and the STDC Hawera WWTP meet overflowed into the nearby tributary
on two occasions in late
fitting mesh doors on the
entrance and exits of the facility, in order to prevent substantial air movement.
The Company has undertaken substantial planting in order to develop vegetative environmental buffers
(VEBs) across the site. The effectiveness of this passive form of odour mitigation will need to be assessed
over time, as they take time to mature.
The Company have not ruled out the installation of a bio-filter, should objectionable odours, beyond the
site boundary, occur in

Of the 14,900 km of ringplain streambank, 85% (12,685 km) is now fenced and 70% (8,003 km) protected with riparian vegetation.
The state and trends of our rivers compare well with equivalent catchments elsewhere.

They develop roots in the nursery

appears to recognise a “biological clock” so that a cutting
from a 3 year-old tree knows that it is 3 years old and
grows differently from a seedling. Advantages are smaller
branching, less forking, straighter stems, they are sturdier,
less likely to have distorted roots at planting, and are
expected to have less taper and bark thickness.

(a) Mai te maunga Taranaki ki te Tai a Kupe: (interconnectiveness) (another way of expressing this is Ki uta ki tai).
The domain of Tangaroa extends from the source of the rivers on Mount Taranaki to the moana (sea). Each awa (river) is linked and together form an entity that includes its
source, and the moana.
