  • 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.
