Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance
by the consent holder during the period under review, this report also assigns a
rating as to the company’s environmental and administrative performance.
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 the Company’s approach to
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,
sensitive macroinvertebrate taxa, and
higher respiration and decay rates.

Ecological communities are impacted by moderate DRP
elevation above natural reference conditions. If other
conditions also favour eutrophication, DRP enrichment
may cause increased algal and plant growth, loss of
sensitive macro-invertebrate and fish taxa, and high rates
of respiration and decay.

level of environmental performance during the 2015-2016
year. Of the 20 consents for which compliance and environmental performance could be
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
