(Appendix A). These sites have been used to inform the
setting of ammonia, nitrate, and DRP baseline states.
Baseline states for nutrients
The NPS-FM requires all regional councils to identify baseline states for all attributes described in Appendix
2A and 2B of the NPS-FM within each Freshwater Management Unit (FMU). When compared against
national bottom lines and the relevant objectives for an FMU, baselines provide the reference point from
which councils must either maintain
or more to be in the blue, green or yellow category in
terms of E. coli by 2030.
Monitoring data and available information has improved since the initial targets were identified, and as
such these regional targets will be able to be revised as Council sets target attribute states in relation to
human contact attributes. Spatial water quality models, have been utilized to assess current baseline state
in relation to these swimmability targets, and to also predict future state under a range
