high suspended solids. In order to minimise deleterious effects on the receiving environment, Port Taranaki
Ltd (Port Taranaki) have implemented a number of preventative measures since 2012, including upgrading
the stormwater treatment system and improving stormwater management procedures.

livestock or other animals can occur via direct deposition, runoff from pastoral land, and piped
discharges from farms. Human contamination of water can occur due to leaking sewage pipes or

heavy rain overflow conditions.
Wet weather in August 2015 and September 2015 raised pond levels but not to

majority of irrigation systems currently in operation in the province fall in to the
pressurised category. Pressurised systems can be further differentiated based on the
method of operation and equipment used. A summary of the systems encountered in
the region and some of their advantages and disadvantages are summarised below:
