The rating categories are high, good, improvement required and poor for both environmental and
now. Southern monitoring reveals possum hot spots We are currently completing possum monitoring in the South operation. There have been several hot spots with catch rates well above required levels. In some areas it appears there has been little or no control work done, which is disappointing. These farmers are making it harder and more expensive for their neighbours, who are working hard to keep numbers low. As a result, an increased number of Notices of Direction have been
accordance with State of the Environment monitoring requirements. The 2013-2014 programme continued to incorporate these changes. A later consultant’s report (in 2000) re-confirmed trends (using up-dated methodology) that the lake was phosphorus limited and remained mesotrophic. Further trend reporting for the period 1990-2006 was provided as a component of the consents renewal process and suggested that while there has been a very slow rate of increase in trophic level, the lake would be
significant confusion in the community. • Some permitted activity standards are also arguably redundant. For example, the permitted activity standards under regulation 13 for stockholding areas require the area be sealed so that Policy and Planning Committee - Opportunities for Freshwater Reform 14 page water cannot permeate faster than a certain rate and the area be 50m away from any water body or drain. If an area is appropriately sealed and effluent appropriately

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. 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

For existing ponds, we provide estimated leak rates and comments on leak detection monitoring and maintenance (see Section 4). • Environmental considerations for siting new ponds (see Section 5). 1.2 Scope of work We have carried out the following: • Desk top review of available geological information including: - Townsend et al., 2008.

experienced the intensification seen in some other regions. For example, the total number of milking dairy cattle in 1998/1999 was 481,034 (nearly 15% of the nation’s milking herd) and by 2013/2014 it was still only 493,361 (10% of the national herd). Likewise, stocking rates have hardly changed, from an average of 2.8 cows per hectare in 1998/1999 to 2.85 cows per hectare in 2013/2014. These are lower stocking rates than the national average. The pressures on land use are not
