under consent conditions and this showed that daily
volume limits and instantaneous abstraction rates were complied with for the majority of the monitoring
period. Self-monitoring of the Inglewood discharge showed that the discharge generally complied with
consent conditions.
During the year, NPDC demonstrated a high level of environmental and administrative performance with the
resource consents.
For reference, in the 2020-2021 year, consent holders were found to achieve a high level
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.
In terms of overall environmental and compliance performance by the consent holder over the last several
years, this report shows that the consent holder’s performance remains at a high level.

for specific projects to assist with the recovery from COVID-19. And we are committing funds to the refurbishment of our
Stratford office, which is no longer fit for purpose.
We will also be conducting one of our regular formal reviews of our 100% ownership of Port Taranaki Ltd, with more
public consultation if changes are proposed as a result.
Budgeting for a rates increase is never a decision taken lightly.

the on-
site activities, and compliance with the conditions of the consents during the period under review. The
monitoring programme for this year included nine inspections, one water sampling survey, one soil
sampling survey, and two in-stream biomonitoring surveys.
During the monitoring period, the site generally demonstrated a level of administrative performance
that requires improvement in terms of annual reporting. The environmental performance is rated ‘good’
rather than high’ due to
resource consents held by Fonterra for the Whareroa site 5

year round, irrespective of the flow conditions in the Inaha Stream.
The dilution rate of the wastewater discharge to the Inaha Stream was compliant for the duration of the
discharge. The analysis of the oxygen and the sodium absorption ratio of the wastewater were compliant
when assessed.
The application of wastewater and fertiliser to land was limited to below 250 kg N/ha across all irrigation

2.2 Appendix V of the RAQP is titled “Good management practices for
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 to
demonstrating consent
