What we want to know Measure Target Result<br />
The manageable nitrogen<br />
load within the Lake <strong>Taupo</strong><br />
catchment from pastoral land<br />
use activities is reducing by<br />
20% by 2018, from the<br />
benchmark average (2001 -<br />
2004).<br />
<strong>Council</strong> reduces the nitrogen<br />
discharge from its wastewater<br />
treatment plants within the<br />
Lake <strong>Taupo</strong> catchment by<br />
20% of the benchmark<br />
average (10,337kg/ year), by<br />
2018.<br />

As at 31 March <strong>2013</strong>, a total<br />
of 150.7 tonnes of nitrogen<br />
(164% of the target for the<br />
year) has been permanently<br />
removed from pastoral land<br />
within the catchment.<br />
On Track.<br />
The 2016-18 target is subject to the Crown, Waikato Regional <strong>Council</strong> and TaupO <strong>District</strong> <strong>Council</strong> reaching agreement to fund the removal of an additional 30 tonnes of<br />
nitrogen raising the total amount of nitrogen to be removed from 153 to 183 tonnes.<br />
