Ara tawhito (trails), ran through these catchments, bringing whānau into the southern lakes and rivers on their seasonal pursuit of resources. Today the rivers are used for recreation, and are valued for their landscape qualities and the species residing in them.

  • 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.

    Clutha River / Mata-Au Monitoring Summary July 2008 - June 2009 Contents Water quality monitoring Water Quality Results • Nutrients Between July 2008 and the end of June 2009 the Otago Regional Council • Turbidity • Bacteria (ORC) monitored 26 river and stream sites in the Clutha catchment to assess the current state of water quality. Most sites were monitored Ecosystem Health bimonthly, but five further sites (Clutha River/Mata-Au at Luggate, Millers • Macroinvertebrate health Flat and Balclutha, the Kawarau River and the Shotover River) were • Algae • Fish monitored monthly by NIWA as part of the national river water quality network (NRWQN). Sites were classified using a water quality index, and River Flows the results are shown in the map below (NRWQN sites denoted by an N). Sites were classified using a water quality index, derived NIWA NRWQN sites from median values of six indicator variables: turbidity, N1 Clutha (Luggate) dissolved oxygen (% saturation), ammoniacal nitrogen, nitrite-nitrate nitrogen, dissolved reactive phosphorus, and N2 Shotover River Escherichia coli (E.coli) bacteria. Median values of these N3 Kawarau River variables were compared with ANZECC and MfE/MoH N4 Clutha (Millers Flat) guideline levels, enabling classification of water quality into N5 Clutha (Balclutha) one of the following groups: Very All seven values comply Good with guideline values Five or six median values comply (to Good include dissolved oxygen) Three or four median values comply (to Fair include dissolved oxygen) Two or fewer median Poor values comply with guideline values There are few significant point source discharges to freshwater in the Clutha catchment and land use has the greatest effect on water quality.
