the area and reduce ponding. The culvert over the waterway looked good and
appeared to be coping with flood events. The area where muds were originally spread
had pasture establishing. The area where muds were most recently being applied had
good contouring and bunding across three sides. Some muds had migrated to the soil
surface through natural processes; these muds were found to be weathering and broke
apart easily when handled. Ponded water around the spreading area from recent rain
stormwater catchments were
clean. The Herekawe Stream was in low flow, with slight turbidity resulting from the discharge that
dissipated within 25 m. There were no visible emissions to air. An odour survey was conducted around the
site at and no odours were noted.
