1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance
by the consent holder/s during the period under review, this report also assigns a
rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance.
Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the
receiving
southern coastline, where dunefields extend inland for several kilometres. Less than
2% of the Taranaki region is classified as coastal sand country.
The Taranaki coastline is exposed to the west, and as a consequence, high energy
wave and wind conditions dominate the coastal environment. Almost the entire
Taranaki coastline is subject to varying rates of erosion from waves and wind. This
has resulted in a predominantly cliffed coastline, with the western coast
characterised by

review.
Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the receiving environment from the
activities during the monitoring year. Administrative performance is concerned with Methanex’s approach to
demonstrating consent compliance in site operations and management including the timely provision of
information to Council
significance of the trend was determined using the p value (p < 0.05 = significant).
When multiple correlations are undertaken, there is a chance that some will be found to be significant
purely by chance. In order to deal with this potential problem, the Benjamini-Hochberg False Discovery Rate
(FDR) method was applied to the results of the Mann-Kendall test. Further justification for this statistical
approach can be found in Stark and Fowles (2006).

the Council to take
action on any environmental matter even if not explicitly addressed within a regional plan.
The analysis shows that the Council’s monitoring, liaison, and if needs be enforcement of
consents is very effective, achieving extremely high levels of compliance and low levels of
complaint. The average annual rate of non-compliance is barely more than 2%, or 8 events
per year. A very small number of consented sites are proving problematic; the Council
applies the full suite
