Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the receiving
environment from the activities during the monitoring year. Administrative

to 21% (for nitrate nitrogen) would be captured.
Even if the total loadings from only pastoral catchments were considered, the overall capture
rate rose only to 23%: that is, over three-quarters of all contaminants originating from
pastoral land would still enter waterways if the LAWF recommendations were fully
implemented.
When Prof McDowell ran the model for the Taranaki ring plain, he found there would be
substantial differences in residual contaminant load entering waterways,
Under the NPS-FM, water use is
managed by setting environmental
flows and levels, taking into account
any changes that are likely to occur as
a result of climate change. Limits can
then be set on the rate and amount
of water taken, and where and when
that water can be abstracted.
Monitoring of water use ensures that
people comply with the relevant rules
and regulations.
The Council’s current Regional
Freshwater Plan requires that 66% of

categorised, 2 (10%) were rated ‘improvement required’ and 18 (90%) were rated ‘high’.
The site was generally well managed, however, two incidents resulted from procedural issues
that have now been addressed. Water abstraction limits were adhered to. The stormwater
system performed well and no impacts were detected in the receiving environments. There
an infringement notice issued as a result of one of the complaints
received about the site.
During the year, TBS Coatings Limited demonstrated a good level of environmental
performance and a high level of administrative performance with the resource consent. An
exceedance of the dust deposition rate was observed in two of the six gauges deployed, which
may have been the result of re-suspended yard dust. The Company undertook a site clean up
as a result of this non-compliance. No
