and diversions are situated around the ponds to divert clean stormwater away from
operational areas.
74. Stormwater runoff typically occurs immediately following rain events. The stormwater
volume depends on a number of factors, including the moisture content of the soil and
the intensity of the rain. The majority of contaminants contained within the stormwater
will be in the ‘first flush’ of water leaving
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 (31% of
samples, or 35% if the samples of the Waimoku are included) across the 16 recognised bathing sites was
slightly higher than the recorded long-term average. However, it should be noted that the “Action” category
is the only category for which swimming is not recommended. In the

the area and reduce ponding. The culvert over the waterway looked good and
appeared to be coping with flood events. The area where muds were originally spread
had pasture establishing. The area where muds were most recently being applied had
good contouring and bunding across three sides. Some muds had migrated to the soil
surface through natural processes; these muds were found to be weathering and broke
apart easily when handled. Ponded water around the spreading area from recent rain
stormwater catchments were
clean. The Herekawe Stream was in low flow, with slight turbidity resulting from the discharge that
dissipated within 25 m. There were no visible emissions to air. An odour survey was conducted around the
site at and no odours were noted.

1 Wowzers. It won't surprise anyone to see there was A LOT of
rain in February. Most of it fell over just a couple of
weekends, the 5th to 7th and the 11th to 13th. Our sites
recorded between 178% and 702% of normal rainfall, with an
average of 354%.
