A. McClean Matakana Island Sewerage Outfall Report Bacteria and viruses . Various different types of .hacteriaare .. found in sewage. Some, such as faecalcoliforms, salmonella, and Escherichia coli, are used as an indicator of bacterial pathogens. Increasingly, viruses rather than bacteria are being used as an indicator to determine shellfish suitability for consumption. In particular,the United States. National Advisory Committee recommends monitoring of vibrio. species of virus. Three main vibrio species are considered harmful to human health: vibrio parahaemolyticus, vibriovulnificus,~.andvibrioalginolyticus.Monitoring of both .bacteria and viruses is· requiredjnorderto~determine the level ofshellfish contamination . .Biological .oxygen Demand (BOD) This is an indicator ofresidual organic content in the effluent. This content may involve further biodegradation and therefore place a demand on oxygen in the environment. Faecal Coliforms (FC) These are bacteria that are present in the gut and in the faeces of warm blooded animals. For this reason they are often used to indicate the presence ofpollution (bacterial pathogens) derived from humans. Faecal coliforms are less useful as indicators of excreted viruses. Pathogens Disease-causing micro-organisms; viruses, fungi, bacteria and eggs of parasites. pH A measure of acidity or basicity of a substanc.eranging from 1.0 to 14.0 with 7 being neutral. Sewage .

  • Our Port History to Modern Day August 2013
    Port History to Modern Day S:\Port Information\Our Port History to Modern Day August 2013 2 EARLY HISTORY OF THE PORT OF TAURANGA 1290 Judge Wilson in his Sketches of Ancient Maori Life and History records that the canoe Takitumu carrying immigrants from Hawaiiki arrived in approximately 1290 AD and found Te Awanui (as Tauranga was then named) in the possession of a tribe of aborigines whose name, Puru Kopenga, or full net testified to the rich harvest to be drawn from the surrounding waters. 1769 In November, Captain James Cook passed close to Tauranga (pronounced Towrangha ) but did not enter the harbour. 1828 Probably the first European vessel to visit Tauranga was the missionary schooner Herald that called during this year. 1853 Captain Drury in HMS Pandora surveyed and charted the coast and harbour. 1864 Under the Marine Board Act of 1863, the Auckland Provincial Government Superintendent appointed the first pilot Captain T S Carmichael on 8 December 1864. He fixed leading buoys and marks in position to define the navigable channel, and his first piloting assignment was to bring HMS Esk into the harbour. The first house at Mount Maunganui was built for him late in 1866, to replace the tent in which he had lived during the previous two years. Copies of his early diaries are held in Tauranga s Sladden Library. Tauranga is probably the only Port in the country to experience a naval blockade. The Government of the day, fearful that arms would be run to hostile Maori warriors, imposed the blockade by notice in the New Zealand Gazette dated 2 April 1864.

  • Aongatete Nature Education Programme Teacher Information
    AONGATETE NATURE EDUCATION PROGRAMME TEACHER INFORMATION AONGATETE EDUCATION PROGRAMME 2019 TEACHER INFORMATION The Aongatete Forest Project (AFP) is a 500 ha pest managed area in the Kaimai Mamaku Conservation Park, located between Katikati and Tauranga. The project began in 2006 with pest control over 245 ha, followed by extension of this area to 500 ha in 2013. The purpose of the AFP was to demonstrate and advocate for the desperate need to provide larger scale pest control across the Kaimai Mamaku Conservation Park to prevent further decline of this area. The Aongatete Forest Project kaupapa provides a fantastic opportunity for students to • discover how incredibly unique New Zealand is • gain an insight into many of the conservation challenges in New Zealand • learn a set of practical conservation skills they can use to make a positive difference in their • communities. Titipounamu/Rifleman, Aotearoa’s smallest bird, were first confirmed as present at Aongatete around 2013. Titipounamu are a declining endemic New Zealand species at risk from introduced mammalian predators and like so many of our native species they are cavity nesters. Due to the loss of suitable natural nesting sites nest-boxes can provide a low cost and non-lethal method to protect rifleman nests from predators. Late last year the first confirmed breeding success of titipounamu in a nest box was recorded at Aongatete! 1 OVERVIEW The environmental science focus of the Aongatete Education Programme (AEP) is delivered via a range of hands-on activities carried out by conservation field staff here at Aongatete and similar conservation sites across the country.

  • Aongatete Sub-Catchment Action Plan 2012
    Aongatete Sub-Catchment Action Plan 2012 The Aongatete Sub-Catchment Action Plan is one of a series about the sub-catchments surrounding Tauranga Harbour. This action plan provides an analysis of the current land management issues, a summary of the available physical resources in the Aongatete sub-catchment, and planned action for land and resource use in the sub-catchment. Published October 2012 Aongatete Sub-Catchment Action Plan Page 1 Introduction The Aongatete sub-catchment is five km south of Katikati. It is 8308 hectares in area and flows from the Kaimai Ranges and enters the harbour between Matahui and Morton Roads. The Aongatete sub-catchment is part of the Tauranga Ecological District. The sub-catchment is 14.5 km long and 6 km wide. It includes 320 km of riparian margins and 10 km of harbour margin. The primary waterways in the sub-catchment are the Aongatete and Whatakao Rivers. There are four named tributary streams (Kauritatahi, Pahangahanga, Poupou and Waitioka) and numerous unnamed tributaries. The most widely spread land cover in the sub-catchment is indigenous bush at 56 percent. Pasture covers 32 percent, horticultural 10 percent and exotic forest two percent. Large areas Source: BOPRC, ESRI, i-cubed, USGS, NASA, NOA of estuarine wetlands surround the Aongatete estuary. Sub-catchment soils are derived from air-fall ash and belong to the Katikati soil series. These soils are classified Typic Orthic Allophanic, which have a high allophonic (clay) mineral content. These soils are versatile with no rooting barriers, however the physical structure is poor. This indicates these soils are vulnerable to erosion under poor vegetation cover or intensive land-use.
