BAY OF PLENTY REGIONAL COUNCIL TOI MOANA 1 Executive summary Many of New Zealand’s most well-known lakes and rivers can be found in the Bay of Plenty region and are therefore known to attract significant visitor numbers annually. The preservation and protection of these waterways are what attracts so many international and domestic tourists to them. Due to the close proximity of the Bay of Plenty lakes and rivers, and their popularity, they are extremely susceptible to invasive pest species.

  • 1. Kerosene Creek 2. Wairua Stream
    1. Kerosene Creek First on our list of hot pools in Rotorua is the world-famous Kerosene Creek. 35 minutes from Rotorua and down a gravel road will take you to the thermal pool and waterfall at Kerosene Creek. The creek is popular not just for its geothermal activity but its beautiful surroundings. Location: 28km south of Rotorua. Take State Highway 5, then travel about 2km down Old Waiotapu Road. 2. Wairua Stream Wairua Stream is a bit harder to get to as you have to get a boat across Lake Tarawera, making it a local’s paradise. It is near Te Rata Bay and is one of the most picturesque hot pools near Rotorua. Location: About 25 minutes out of Rotorua down Spencer Road, Lake Tarawera. By boat, launch at Stoney Point and head straight across Lake Tarawera to the headlands on the right of Mt Tarawera. Go straight through these headlands to where the lake opens. Steer gently to starboard and make for the only beach in this area. 3. Wai-o-Tapu / The Bridge / The Secret Spot When it comes to Rotorua hot pools, it does not get more popular thank this one. Funnily enough, it is supposed to be a secret. Get the remnants from the Wai-O-Tapu geothermal attraction by bathing in the hot pool formed by the hot Wai-O-Tapu stream meeting the cool river. It’s a thermal pool, completely natural and completely free! Location: Just outside the Wai-O-Tapu geothermal park (under the bridge). 30km south of Rotorua just off State Highway 5.

  • The Sedimentation and Drainage History of Haroharo Caldera and the Tarawera River System, Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand
    The Sedimentation and Drainage History of Haroharo Caldera and The Tarawera River System, Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand Prepared by K A Hodgson and I A Nairn Environment Bay of Plenty Operations Publication 2004/03 August 2004 5 Quay Street P O Box 364 Whakatane NEW ZEALAND ISSN 1176 - 5550 Working with our communities for a better environment Environment Bay of Plenty i Acknowledgements The Department of Conservation (Rotorua Lakes Office) permitted our studies in lake and river reserves. Fletcher Challenge Forests (and its successors) provided detailed contour maps and aerial photographs. Bryan Davy and Hugh Bibby (GNS) provided a pre- publication copy of their paper on seismic imaging in Lake Tarawera. PGSF Contract IANX0201 funded this study. Sedimentation and Drainage History, Tarawera River System Operations Publication 2004/03 Environment Bay of Plenty iii Executive Summary Haroharo caldera has been formed by the coalescence of multiple collapse structures over the last 350 kyr, the latest major collapse accompanying voluminous rhyolite pyroclastic eruptions at ~50 ka. The caldera has formed a sink for precipitation on surrounding catchments, with overflow via the Tarawera River through the Whakatane graben to the sea at ~30 km to NE. Lakes have probably always occupied at least part of the caldera floor, but the early lacustrine history is largely obscured by younger eruptives. Since 26 ka, the Haroharo, Okareka, Rotoma and Tarawera volcanic complexes have grown within the caldera during eleven eruption episodes, confining ten lakes on the caldera margins. Growth of the volcanic complexes has greatly altered drainage paths and ponding areas within and marginal to the caldera, so that the present ~700 km2 caldera catchment area is about half the ~1400 km2 area that drained into the caldera between 26 ka and 9.5 ka.

The overarching goal of the Deed of Funding Agreement is to meet community aspirations for water quality in the four Deed Funded lakes: Rotoiti, Rotorua, Ōkāreka and Rotoehu. Each of these lakes has a target water quality set by the community in the Bay of Plenty Regional Water and Land Plan. This target water quality is set by Trophic Level Index (TLI) and this report provides an update on the status of water quality across the Rotorua Te Arawa Lakes, against the targets set for all lakes, Deed and non-Deed funded.
