Rainfall for April was generally well below the average, ranging from 27% to 72%, with an average of 50% of normal for April. Rainfall was higher around the Maunga and ring plain, and Cape Egmont received 84% of normal rain. Most of the rain fell in two events on 6 and 22 April. Te Maunga recorded between 67% and 79% of normal. Year to date rainfall is sitting between 67% and 213% with an average of 113% of normal.

of gravity (Photo 5 to 7). Discharge from Pond F to the unnamed tributary of the Kurapete Stream
occurs via a steel pipe access culvert. The tributary flows approximately 600 m before joining the Kurapete
Stream upstream of the Everett Road Bridge. In an emergency (e.g., during a sustained heavy rain event),
Ponds B and C are bypassed as water is pumped directly from Pond A to Pond D where it travels through
the system to Pond F. Contouring and bunding of the site directs stormwater to Ponds
as well as ensuring public awareness of the impacts of
stormwater on recreational water quality particularly after a rain event. In the coastal water, where most
people are likely to bathe, counts were well within ‘Surveillance’ mode (MfE, 2003; Table 3). The health risk
overall, was therefore considered to be low.
The addition of groundwater monitoring to the 2023/24 programme allows the Council to track impacts to
groundwater quality from the WWTP. In the first year, groundwater samples

Erosion
Erosion is the wearing away and loss of land by the action of water or wind. In Taranaki we
have some erosion problems.
• Erosion sometimes occurs in Taranaki when trees and other plants have
been cleared off steep hill country. This causes slips when waterlogged
soil falls off the solid base.
Solution: plant trees to hold the soil together, and soften the rain falling
on the land. The roots
