implementation of riparian management and improved stream health
and reduced E coli levels; the lack of correlation between increasing riparian
interventions and any evidence of a change in attainment of the NPS-FM
swimmability criteria; the very high rate of attainment of swimmability in Taranaki
if assessed against EU criteria instead of NPS-FM criteria; and the absence of any
correlation between nutrient trends and macroinvertebrate community health
trends

pumping capacity (to the NPDC
wastewater treatment plant). The secondary pond was deepened during 1999-2000 to
increase the storage capacity. The predictive model indicated a much reduced
likelihood of pond overflow of 3 occurrences in total over any 10 year period as a
result of this increased pond capacity and higher diversion pumping rate than
originally proposed.
Previously, NPDC advised that investigations into cross connections between sewer
and stormwater systems would be undertaken to
development of the region’s resources.
1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and consent 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 Todd’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.

indicates how this information can be used for this purpose.
Some tidal stream and current information is contained on hydrographic charts of the area
and should be used in conjunction with tide tables for the appropriate day. Locations of
maps reflecting tidal stream directions and rates for the Taranaki bite and adjacent areas are
