Plymouth met the NES, with monitoring results showing low levels
of CO in the area most of the time.
The highest one-minute level of carbon monoxide recorded during the one-month survey was 10.6 mg/m³.
This was detected on a Friday night during the ‘Americarna’ festival. This relatively high carbon monoxide
emission rate is a reflection of the high number of vehicles with large engine capacities running at low
revolutions per minute in the streets at that time. The highest eight–hour
information on the riparian planting programme (see Chapter
3—Fresh water, page 84).
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
consent holders during the period under review, this report also assigns a
rating as to each 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
demonstrating consent compliance in site operations and management including the
timely provision of information to the Council
1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental 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 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 consent

• The discharge does not result in surface ponding;
• No spray drift enters surface water;
• The discharge does not occur at a rate at which it cannot be assimilated by the
soil/pasture system; and
• The pasture cover within irrigation areas is maintained at all times.

limited monitoring data. In 2016, MfE commissioned a report to estimate the state of freshwaters in New
Zealand from a human health perspective (Snelder et al. 2016). Monitored water quality variables were
combined with catchment and land-use data to estimate water quality for all lakes in New Zealand, which
was subsequently used to make predictions of cyanobacterial biovolumes for all lakes. The spatial water
quality attribute models were rated to have satisfactory

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
