maximising weed control.
GROUND PREPARATION
(pre-plant spraying)
Clear away all grass and weed competition
before planting. Rank vegetation can be
spot-sprayed with a knock-down herbicide
containing the active ingredient glyphosate
eg. Roundup G2. Glyphosate has low
toxicity to wildlife and soil organisms, and
breaks down fast. Spray three or preferably
four weeks before plants go in. Use
Roundup at a rate of 10 ml per litre of
water (for

horizontal momentum of the discharge, as follows:
- Roof-mounted chimney vents in the proposed scenario were represented by three point
emission sources located on the roof of each shed with full vertical momentum to
reflect the vertical orientation of the vents, as follows:.

Lake Rotorangi is determined each year, through four water quality monitoring
surveys and through phytoplankton surveys (conducted simultaneously with the water
quality surveys). A previous benthic invertebrate survey and a three-yearly macrophyte
(aquatic weeds) survey conducted in autumn 2015 are also reported, for completeness.
Based on these surveys and studies, the lake’s condition continues to be classified as
mesotrophic, with a very slow and insignificant rate of increase in trophic
consent to discharge emissions into the air at the plant
site. The consent to emit to air was replaced in May 2016.
During the monitoring period, ANZCO demonstrated a generally good level of
environmental performance.
Monitoring is carried out by both ANZCO and the Council. ANZCO monitors water
abstraction rate, effluent flow rate and composition, receiving water quality, odour at the plant
boundaries, and effluent loadings, soil, and herbage for irrigation areas. The Council

The stadium’s initial regional funding of $9.6 million was covered by a
combination of uniform charges across the region and targeted rates
in New Plymouth and North Taranaki. This arrangement ran from July
2001 to June 2012. In 2002 a major redevelopment saw two new
grandstands added, the TSB Stand overlooking the main field’s eastern
sideline and the Noel and

administrational performance has been rated as Good, as although the
performance against most consent conditions with respect to the administrative compliance was high,
issues around testing of the integrity of the water take pipeline and meeting the requirements of the
Resource Management (Measurement and Reporting of Water Takes) Regulations 2010 are yet to be resolved.
Methanex have been open and participative in their communication with regard to their progress on these
issues.

raw water abstraction rate from the Waitara River for the Motunui plant was
measured continuously and the plant effluent was monitored for a number of
parameters with frequencies ranging from continuously (flow and pH) to monthly

1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and administrative performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the Company, 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
