These reports provide a monthly overview of how the Environmental Delivery group is performing against its key levels of service.
We track the progress across a range of regulatory and operational activities, including compliance monitoring, consent application processing, incident response, as well as consent audit inspections.
Our summaries aim to offer a clear and consistent view of our performance, highlight areas of focus or improvement, and support transparency and accountability in the delivery of our environmental responsibilities. These are also provided to councillors at council meetings.

Environmental Delivery performance remained strong in April 2025, with all resource consent applications processed on time and public inquiries responded to within target timeframes. Compliance activities are tracking well ahead of targets, with high volumes of monitoring and inspections completed year to date. Enforcement remains low, and overall trends indicate consistent, above-target delivery across key service areas. Boat engine hours were notably lower this month, less than half of March’s total.
