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 Company’s
approach to demonstrating consent compliance in site operations and management including the timely
provision of information to Council (such as contingency plans and water take data) in …

During the monitoring period, Riverlands demonstrated an overall good level of
environmental performance.
Monitoring is carried out by both Riverlands and the Council. Riverlands 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
undertakes inspections of the plant site and irrigation areas; effluent quality checks and
health ratings from ‘very good’ to ‘fair’ in ring
plain streams. The MCI state of the environment
monitoring programme continued during the year under
review, with results for the 2017/2018 year to be reported
during 2018/2019.
Measure: Microbiological state of inland waters and
coastal waters at bathing sites.
Target (Years 1-10): Maintenance or increase in number
of sites compliant with the 2003 Ministry of Health
contact recreational guidelines.

on population productivity. Similarly, Armstrong et al.
(2006) found that the nesting success, fecundity, adult female survival and juvenile survival of
North Island robins in the Paengaroa Mainland Island declined as rat tracking rates increased;
although 40 robins were reintroduced to Paengaroa in 1999, none of these were found in 2010—
likely as a result of rat predation. South Island robin (Petroica australis) numbers have also been
found to be strongly correlated with rat abundance in
