The bolded bit from the conclusion copied below is what they claim is damning scientific evidence, from which they conclude "Any failure to respond to the scientific evidence just adds to the impatience of the Tasmanian community, sick of being ignored by Government."
They dont state that the actual numbers for nitrogen is 0.072mg/L, well within the strictest limits of 0.50mg/L, or that most other substances are 'below the limit of reporting' levels or there being no positive correlation between when the pen is stocked and fallow.
They want to pick and choose the 'scientific evidence' from the report rather than consider it as a whole.
They are Trumpian environmentalists, they are deceptive, malicious and dangerous people, question everything they say.
From the main body of the report;
The maximum value observed for TAN (0.072 mg/L) is well below the ANZG (2018)toxicant default guideline values for marine waters for the protection of 99% of species for ammonia (TAN)of 500 μg/L (0.50 mg/L). It should be noted that the toxicant default guideline value for the protection of95% of species of 910 μg/L (0.91 mg/L) is recommended for slightly to moderately disturbed (SMD)ecosystems however the more conservative value has been assessed in this instance.
And from the conclusion;
Nitrate (NO3), Nitrite (NO2) showed no associated signature and were reported as below the Limit of Reporting (LoR).
Nitrate and Nitrite (NOx) showed no associated signature and was reported as at or below the Limit of Reporting (LoR).
Nitrogen (Total) and Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) levels were higher at sites within 100 metres of the lease whilst the lease was stocked.
Sites beyond 100 metres tended to have higher levels whilst fallow illustrating complicated processes in play such as possible releases of dissolved inorganic and organic substances into the benthic and pelagic zones from the breakdown of labile and refractory detritus.
