this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance during
the period under review. The rating categories are high, good, improvement required and poor for both
environmental and administrative performance. The interpretations for these ratings are found in
Appendix II.
For reference, in the 2021-2022 year, consent holders were found to achieve a high level of environmental
performance and compliance for 88% of the consents monitored through
region’s rivers and streams every day.
Today, every dairy farm in Taranaki operates under a regularly monitored discharge permit that requires
effluent to be treated before discharge. And the rates of compliance are consistently high at over 93%.
Clean, healthy water is the region’s most precious resource. A highlight of the report is the finding that
trends in ecological health and a wide range of physical and chemical measures of water quality are the best
that have ever been recorded.
showed that overall the NPDC water schemes are well operated and maintained and appeared
to be having no adverse effects on the environment.
NPDC provided all the abstraction data required under consent conditions and this showed that all daily
volume limits and instantaneous abstraction rates were complied with. Self-monitoring of the Inglewood
discharge showed less than minor non-compliances with suspended solids limits. However, NPDC has since
implemented measures to prevent future …

To monitor the exercising of consent 7470-1.2, abstraction volume and rate data are recorded electronically
and transferred to the Council via telemetry, so the data can be viewed in near real time.
Three groundwater monitoring bores are monitored to assess the potential effects of the abstraction on
local groundwater levels. One of the monitored bores is located within the grounds of Pukekura Park to
assess effects down-gradient of the raceway. Groundwater …

The $20 million grant means that ratepayers can confidently expect a reduction of just over 40% in their Yarrow
Stadium targeted rates from July 2021. The grant also made it easier for us to decide on options for the project,
and we’re excited about the …

Chief Executive, upon request.
Advice Note:
It is acknowledged that there is potential for inaccurate flow records associated with
measuring the residual flow using water level data, given that a change in the rating curve
may result in there being less flow at the water level recorder than when the previous rating
was in use was established.
As such, in the event that the Taranaki Regional Council identifies (via its river gauging) that

Crossing, an emerging ‘Great
Walk’ set to boost the region’s burgeoning reputation as a visitor destination.
The Council is also confident about its plans to build on recent gains in freshwater quality; to develop its
education programme; and to broaden and deepen its relationship with iwi and hapū.
Financially, the impact of our proposals is relatively minor. There is an increase of 4.5 percent in the general
rates take for 2018/2019. In the last three years, the average general rates
