following REC defined types: WD/SS, WD/VB, WD/VA, CD/SS, CD/VB, CD/VA. The Default class includes all REC types not in
the Productive class.
Based on a monthly monitoring regime. The minimum record length for grading a site based on periphyton (chlorophyll-a)
is 3 years.
* The productive class is defined by River Environment Classification (REC) types, with a combination of dry climate categories
and soft-sedimentary, volcanic acidic and volcanic basic geology. All sites that do not fall in
establishment of vegetation, were stripped in heavy weather
in September 2015 (Figure 5).
Since this date, numerous attempts had been undertaken to re-establish the vegetation, however wind and
rain erosion had hindered the progress.
Figures 6 and 7 denote the follow up re-sown grass which was undertaken in May 2016. The re-sown grass
was blown out through wind and rain erosion throughout the 2016 winter. In February of 2017, the site was
revisited. The site management had undertaken additional
inspection.
Surface water from recent rain was discharging via three of the open trenches to the coast. Several (known)
boggy areas discharging from the north trench line were contributing to ponding that was visible from the
main highway.
The Hector Place pumping station and the emergency overflow structure were also inspected and found to
be satisfactory.

Nitrogen also enters the Irrigation Area with rain and clover fixation.
4.4 Total volume of irrigation liquid irrigated onto the Irrigation Blocks
The irrigation liquid is pumped from the pond to the irrigator through a buried pipeline. The pumping flow rate
was measured by BTW company in 2015 as 30 m3/hr1.

The breadth of NIWA’s work on freshwater gives an indication
of the complexity and range of human impact.
For example, teams of scientists are working on ways to
treat human wastewater in towns and on farms, installing
fish passages in channelled waterways, reducing the flood of
rain channelled by urban and road stormwater, calculating
downstream impacts of water take, building wetlands and
riparian strips to stop
