Any produced water will be from reserves far below that which is used for domestic
or farm purposes. Shallow groundwater (which does not have any saltwater content)

Contamination of water supplies
Investigations of sheep dip sites in New Zealand have shown
that sheep dipping chemicals can contaminate ground and
surface water. This is a hazard for livestock, humans and

Zealand drinking water standards have been measured in both
surface water and in groundwater, including household bores
down-gradient of former dip sites.
