Waiwhakaiho River and Te Henui Stream, and less frequently at Lake Opunake, were due principally to resident wild fowl populations in the vicinity of recreational usage sites (as confirmed by inspections and more recently by DNA marker surveys). In terms of E. coli, bacteriological water quality in the latest survey period was similar in comparison with historical surveys. The total number of samples falling within the “Alert” or “Action” categories (29% of samples) was 1% higher than the long-term

My apologies for not always being available to help with every request but in many cases I was at least able to provide some of the necessary equipment which I know was appreciated.

country are susceptible to soil loss by erosion when protective tree cover is removed or when pasture cover is depleted. Unstable pastoral land does not retain topsoil - and is therefore unable to sustain high levels of sheep and beef production. In the frontal hill country and on the ringplain, the countryside is not so steep, but different problems exist. On the banks of rivers and streams, where tree and shrub vegetation has been removed, bank erosion
