were higher at four sites and lower at two sites.
The report also provides an assessment of each site’s statistical water quality in terms of
appropriate guidelines and standards for various usages based upon a summary of the
record for the complete 1995-2013 period.

operations are more than 1.2 km from the road
with irrigation close to the road. Based on my measurements the closest
part of Pad 3 is about 1.4 km from the road with the activities on Pad 1
approximately 1.7 km from the road. The closest grass area that will be
irrigated is approximately 400 metres from the road, southeast of the
office and weigh bridge.

Mangaoraka Stream at
Corbett Road and Punehu Stream at SH45). Significant deteriorations in black disc clarity
were recorded at three sites, two of which reflected historical erosion events in the
headwaters.
The most improvement in long term water quality has been illustrated in the Waingongoro
River at SH 45, with significantly improving trends in DRP and total phosphorus, and with
reduction in nitrate and total nitrogen by slightly less than the rate defined as significant.
