This report summarises six targeted groundwater quality
studies conducted in the Wairarapa from 2004 to 2008.
These studies investigated the extent of nitrate-nitrogen
contamination in selected intensive farming areas in
Te Ore Ore, Carterton and South Featherston, expanding
coastal settlements (Riversdale and Flat Point) and an
area of increasing rural/residential subdivision serviced
by on-site wastewater treatment systems (Norfolk Road,
Carterton).
