Information, education and advice
Each year the Council receives and responds to numerous requests from the public for information on
sustainable land management relating to vegetation clearance, native logging, the implementation rate of
the Sustainable Land Management and Riparian Land Management programmes, aerial photography,
planting advice and new property plan enquiries.
In 2013/2014, the
that with the proposed abstraction rate of 3.9 cumecs, the scheme has the potential to
‘flatline’ the lower river, even under scenario 2. An example of this is shown in Figure 3, where the smaller
variations in flow can be completely absorbed by the station. Jowett states in his report that the impacts of low
flows begin to manifest after 30 days. The synthetic natural flow record shows that this occurs most years
(Figure 5, Table 5). Although scenario 2 (no abstraction when flows are in excess
1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and administrative performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by STDC, this report also
assigns them a rating for their environmental and administrative performance during the period under
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 the STDC’s approach
and that of consent holders to resource management and, ultimately, through the refinement of methods
and considered responsible resource utilisation, to move closer to achieving sustainable development of
the region’s resources.
1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and administrative performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the consent holders,
this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative
bore permeability tests on the monitoring bores GND 2188 and GND 2190 (January
8th 2015).
The 'slug test' method requires removal of a set amount of water, where after recovery of water
levels is timed with a stopwatch. The four litre 'slug' was removed by a high rate vacuum pump,
and the recovering water level was determined with a calibrated electronic dip tape. Both
monitoring bores did not fully recover to their initial water levels after 100 minutes. GND 2188
recorded sudden surges in water

deposited dust at or beyond the boundary of the site that, in the opinion of at
least one enforcement officer of the Taranaki Regional Council, is offensive or
objectionable. For the purpose of this condition, discharges in excess of the
following limits are deemed to be offensive or objectionable:
a) dust deposition rate 0.13 g/m2/day; and/or
b) suspended dust level 3

No rating is given for environmental and administrative performance as the project was on hold for the year
under review.
For reference, in the 2018-2019 year, consent holders were found to achieve a high level of environmental
performance and compliance for 83% of the consents monitored through the Taranaki tailored monitoring
programmes, while for another
