Recommended
That the Taranaki Regional Council:
1. receives and notes for information purposes the correspondence
physical environment and how some of the features may
be protected.
• Suggest ways that their immediate physical environment was different in
the past, eg. the school playing fields, land use, river channels
Level 2
• Investigate easily observable physical features and patterns and consider
how the features are affected by people.
Level 3
• Justify their personal involvement in a school or class initiated local
environmental project, eg. a school tree-planting
pervasive long filaments or cyanobacteria can cause a range of issues such as streams becoming un-inviting
for recreational users, anglers having difficulty fishing, streams closures due to cyanobacteria toxins and
adverse impacts on stream ecology.
This freshwater periphyton programme has been designed to monitor for the presence and biomass of
‘nuisance’ algae in Taranaki streams and rivers at levels which may affect the instream values of these
streams i.e., aesthetic values
