Services for local authorities

ESR's Water Management programme supports local authorities in the management of urban, surface and ground water. We bring practical experience and scientific research to address diverse water management issues for regulatory agencies and environmental resource managers.

We have developed management tools based on an understanding of biophysical factors related to source transport and contamination of water resources for human use. 

We offer multidisciplinary approaches to the management of:

• Surface Water
• Groundwater

ESR also undertakes drinking-water quality surveillance and reporting for the Ministry of Health

• www.drinkingwater.co.nz
• Administering the New Zealand programme for the identification of chemical contaminants
• Annual Review of Drinking-Water Quality in New Zealand
• Register of Community Drinking-Water Supplies in New Zealand
