Recent news articles focused on dairy farms and their contribution to water pollution in New Zealand. Nitrogen and phosphorous are vital nutrients in farming because they encourage plant growth. However, either nutrient in abundance becomes toxic and puts our waterways, and therefore wildlife, and fish in danger. It also threatens our way of life and will eventually limit or completely do away with the recreational use of waterways.
Waterways in NZ are already overtaxed by an increasing population and the stressors put on the environment from pollution by wastewater. We wash dishes and clothes, we take showers, we prepare food, and we maintain our gardens; all water usage that needs treatment and eventually ends up back in our streams, lakes, and rivers. It’s important that everyone does their part in water treatment in New Zealand.
Test Your Ponds to Determine Need for Water Treatment Services
Farmers, retailers and block owners who have a pond on their property should have the water tested to see if it requires treatment. Natural processes and the influence of humans control your Pond’s water quality conditions. The types of rock and soil in the pond watershed, as well as the source of the water, will affect water quality and so will natural factors. However, the biggest taxation on water quality is directly related to land uses and activities in or near the body of water. Early detection of problems with water quality through testing can minimize the harmful effects to our environment.
Don’t wait until there is obviously a problem with your pond to seek water treatment in NZ. By that time, any issue will be far worse than if early intervention techniques were employed. Have the water tested early so you are aware of potential problems, or find quality problems in the early stages. What the pond on your land is used for will determine what type of testing and services your water needs. A pond that supplies drinking water to your livestock is tested for different parameters than a pond used for fishing or one used primarily for swimming and recreation. Early detection and proper management of water quality issues are critical. Parklink can help you manage all water quality problems.
