nearest towns are Stratford which is 10 km to the south east and Inglewood which is 12 km to the north.
The predominant soil type has been identified as gravelly sand, and vegetation growth transitions from
native forest at the edge of the national park to pasture. The average annual rainfall for the site is 1,942 mm
based on the Stratford meteorological station.

in the Taranaki region. The highest median enterococci count was
recorded at Ohawe (40 enterococci cfu/100 ml). Median enterococci counts at all other beaches
were equal to or less than 9 cfu/100 ml. Out of the 217 samples collected for both SEM and for
additional monitoring purposes, 95% were below the Alert level. Of the few samples which
entered the Alert and Action guideline category (5%), the vast majority (9 out of 11) had been
influenced by rainfall and/or freshwater.
The
likely to be contaminated. In these circumstances, sampling is to be undertaken
again within 24 hours to see if the situation is continuing. If the second result is also above
280 then ‘Action’ mode is triggered. That is, it is when there are two consecutive samples
above 280 enterococci per 100 ml that it is considered public health is potentially
compromised. This involves notifying the Taranaki District Health Board. As discussed
below, high flows in streams and rivers following rainfall
periphyton
proliferate. In particular, the duration of low, warm, and slow flows in the presence of strong
sunlight is a controlling factor. An independent national study found that the Taranaki region
is essentially the least susceptible region in New Zealand for excessive periphyton to occur,
because of the frequency of rainfall events even during summer (this is not about total rainfall,
but the return interval between the rainfall events that result in flushing effects in rivers). This
