Cadmium generally enters groundwater systems as a result of leaching from agricultural
land which has been subject to fertiliser application, particularly superphosphate. It has
therefore become the focus of some attention, within both scientific circles and public
interest/media.
An initial investigation into cadmium concentrations in shallow Taranaki groundwater was
conducted by the Taranaki Regional Council (the Council)
the two
rocky shore professional development sessions,
one at Kawaroa, the other at Rahotu. It is
pleasing to see teachers follow up with a rocky
shore study which is a key reason for having
them. This term’s workshop is on wetlands. We
are spending the afternoon of Thursday 5 May
visiting a number of wetland areas (see insert)
all of which are suitable for class visits.
As a result of the Christchurch earthquakes the
Council has reviewed the procedures for visitors

CONSERVATION
In the 19th century the fernbird was
described as one of New Zealand’s
most common birds. However, due to
the ongoing destruction of its natural
wetland habitat the North Island
fernbird is now hardly seen
around the Taranaki ring plain from Mohakatino in the north to the
Waitotara river mouth in the south. The Taranaki Regional Council
recommends planting coastal tree daisy along estuary and lake margins
within the coastal zone throughout the region.
WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP
Fence off areas of scrub and forest to prevent browsing by cattle, sheep
and wild animals.
When planting coastal tree daisy, ensure plant material is eco-sourced
to preserve our local form.

and clear explanations given by both the Council
Marine Biologist Emily Roberts and a speaker
from Port Taranaki. The investigation had many
benefits, among them has been a Council review
of and adjustment to, our coastal monitoring
programme when the dredge is in action. A
terrific effort from all concerned.
