consent between 30 July and 5 August 2022. Due to a lightning strike which destroyed the scheme’s
electronics, OWSL were required to take water in manual operation mode, which resulted in a breach of

were found to achieve a high level of environmental
performance and compliance for 878 (87%) of a total of 1007 consents monitored through the Taranaki
tailored monitoring programmes, while for another 96 (10%) of the consents a good level of environmental
performance and compliance was achieved. A further 27 (3%) of consents monitored required improvement
in their performance, while the remaining one (<1%) achieved a rating of poor.

discharge standards and abstraction rates. In comparison to previous years, the monitoring indicated that
CCCWSL’s compliance with abstraction rate limits had declined slightly. The maximum abstraction limit was
exceeded for an extended period of time in order to maintain water supply for consumers on two occasions
when pipes had burst. This was recorded as a non-compliance in respect to the resource consent, and an
