Compliance monitoring reports

All industries within Southland require a resource consent to discharge to air, water, coast and land. These discharges are monitored to ensure compliance with consents and to minimise impacts on the environment.

The 2019-20 Compliance Monitoring Report highlights the impacts of the challenging year, which included the significant February flooding event and COVID-19. While fewer on-farm inspections were able to be carried out, the team continue to invest significant time and effort to help educate and support consent holders around their consent conditions and other rules.
