  • Trends in the Quality of the Surface Waters of Taranaki
    Trends in the quality of the surface waters of Taranaki Taranaki Regional Council Private Bag 713 STRATFORD February 2006 Executive summary Section 35 of the Resource Management Act requires local authorities to undertake monitoring of the region’s environment, including land, soil, air, and fresh and marine water quality. Monitoring is undertaken to identify pressures upon the regional resources, their state, changes in their state (trends), and the effectiveness of the policies and actions undertaken to maintain and enhance the environment. The Taranaki Regional Council initiated comprehensive state of the environment monitoring programmes (SEM) in 1995 to inform itself and the regional community on the state of the region. The results of the programmes describing Taranaki’s environment have been reported twice to date. This report examines trends in the physicochemical quality of the region’s surface freshwater. With the accumulation of ten years’ data, and the development and implementation of appropriate statistical analysis tools, the Council is now in a position to quantitatively assess trends in water quality, taking into account variations in flow conditions. While the SEM data is the primary record used in this review, use has also been made of data gathered 25 years ago in a survey of the Taranaki ring plain conducted by the Taranaki Catchment Commission. The state of Taranaki’s surface freshwater is reviewed in general terms, and is also compared to various national guidelines and to comparable rivers and streams elsewhere in New Zealand. The findings of this work show that generally Taranaki has good to excellent freshwater quality, and water quality is generally not compromised for appropriate water uses.

  • Swim-Inability Article
    SWIM-INABILITY It’s a clumsy word, the sort of jargon only a bureaucrat could think up, and one not easily found in dictionaries. Despite that, “swimmability” hit its straps in 2017, given currency by the new leader of the Labour Party – now Prime Minister - who had it as one of her three main election planks. If anyone’s to blame for the sudden respectability of this clunky new buzzword for clean rivers and beaches, it’s Jacinda Ardern. Whether her promises of safe bathing will come to pass in Taranaki’s rivers and surf breaks depends on many things that are probably beyond her control. Or anyone else’s for that matter. Most of the time, our waterways are clean and safe. But some of the time, they’re not. Whether 90 percent will become “swimmable” by 2040, the government’s aim, will depend on public demand. WORDS: Jim Tucker PHOTOS: Rob Tucker o the uninitiated, this image is possibly shocking and inconceivable, an unexpected portrait of the Tasman Sea off New Plymouth’s coast after a rainstorm gorged T Taranaki’s hundreds of streams with euphemistically named “suspended solids” from the dairying farmland. It looks full of dirt and bugs, and probably is. But that doesn’t stop people getting out there to go surfing. They’re the initiated, to many of whom the concept of “swimmability” is just that, a vague political construct that has no place in the quest for a perfect wave. Swallowing gobs-full of water is an accepted side-effect, merely “routine” according to one researcher into surfing risks from antibiotic-resistant bugs.

This is important because it provides us with scientifi cally robust measures of how the environment is changing. Overall, the report shows that the health of our rivers and streams – an important issue for Taranaki – does decrease down catchments, as would be expected in an intensively farmed region, but signifi cantly, over time, it is either not changing or has measurably improved.
