    Integrated Water Resource Management for the Cardrona River

    Integrated Water Resource Management for the Cardrona River © Copyright for this publication is held by the Otago Regional Council. This publication may be reproduced in whole or in part provided the source is fully and clearly acknowledged. Published December 2011 ISBN: 978-0-478-37615-9 Prepared by Matt Dale and Jens Rekker Integrated Water Resource Management for the Cardrona River i Foreword Otago’s rivers and streams are a major feature of any Otago landscape and help make the region what it is. The clean waters provide a rich ecological environment, serve rural and urban communities, and act as a tourist attraction. In many parts of the region, surface waters are vital for irrigation water, which enables or enhances primary production during the dry summer months. The future development and prosperity of Otago depends on water. However, much of Otago has long been recognised as a water-short area, and consequently the province is constantly at the forefront of water management in New Zealand. A key thrust of the Regional Plan: Water is its emphasis on the progressive implementation of minimum flow regimes for streams and rivers throughout the region. The goal of these minimum flows is to maintain the stream’s aquatic ecosystem and natural character during periods of low flow, while providing for the socio-economic and cultural values of the community. Furthermore, setting appropriate allocation limits for surface water and groundwater as well as promoting water-use efficiency are integral for ensuring reliable access to the water resource. The Cardrona catchment drains into the Upper Clutha River/Mata-Au and the underlying aquifer includes parts of the Wanaka Township.
