been addressed through extension of the irrigation disposal
system in 2007-2008, and by more intensive wastewater and groundwater monitoring. During the year
under review, there was a higher nitrogen load applied to the paddocks than has been the case since the
extension of the irrigation system. The nitrogen application rates ranged from 151 to 509 kg/ha/year with
average application rates of 350, 423 and 425 kg/ha/year on Farms 1, 2 and 3 respectively. The annual

Company’s environmental and consent compliance performance during the period under review. The report
also details the results of the monitoring undertaken and assesses the environmental effects of the
Company’s activities.
During the monitoring period, Ample Group Limited demonstrated a good level of environmental
performance, and poor administrative performance, resulting in a poor rating overall.
The Company holds six resource consents, which include a total of 92
Inaha Stream and tributaries did not indicate any recent significant impacts
from TBP operations. Most sampling locations received the same or improved rating compared to the
previous year, with most rated as fair or good. The biomonitoring report concluded that discharges to the
Inaha stream during the monitoring period were not likely to be having a significant adverse effect on the
community of organisms.
Sampling of the groundwater wells in the irrigation areas indicated that irrigation

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis, at rates that will write-off the cost or valuation of assets, to their estimated residual values, over their useful
rhododendron seed were collected, and
these have been sown at Pukeiti by Andrew Brooker. The germination
rate has been very good. Over 80 percent have germinated.
In a few years some of the species, no doubt, will be distributed to the
network of gardens with which agreements have been signed, and
offered for sale to members.

The Company was required to coordinate a number of investigations and reports during this reporting
period that also included finalising a number of outstanding 2020-2021 compliance period reports and
investigations which had been delayed. The Mangamingi Bridge Report was finalised during this monitoring
period. Investigations are ongoing regarding the
