During the period under review, Downer EDI Works Ltd was issued with a high rating for their
environmental performance and administrative performance and compliance with their resource consents,
as defined in defined in Appendix II, relation to its Rifle Range Road site.
During the period under review, Enviro NZ demonstrated a high level of environmental and
inspection visits to the site.
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 …

consents to discharge effluent and solids to land, two consents for structures in watercourses, and one
consent to discharge emissions into the air at the plant site.
Monitoring is carried out by both the Company and the Council. The Company monitors water abstraction
rate, effluent flow rate and composition, receiving water quality, odour at the plant boundaries, effluent
loadings and soil and herbage for irrigation areas. The Council

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

Financially, the impact of our proposals for ratepayers is relatively minor. The Council is proposing an increase of
3.5 percent in its general rates take for 2018/2019. In the last three years, the average general rates increase
has been 0.97%. Over the life of the 2018/2028 Long-Term Plan the general rates increase averages out at
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 …
