This is a tool for searching for water quality data from the region's bores and wells.
We regularly collect water samples from bores and wells across the District for a range of monitoring purposes.
Sampling is carried out under several programmes specific to our needs, but we also work with other national agencies like the National Pesticide Survey and the National Groundwater Monitoring Programme.
Once a water sample is collected from a bore or well, it’s sent to an accredited laboratory for analysis. Results are typically returned within 10 days and are electronically transferred to us, where they are automatically uploaded into our environmental database. Results from programmes with external agencies are published once final reports are received.
You can now access all groundwater testing results we hold. This online tool allows you to search for water quality results for any bore or well in Tasman and view the associated data. You also have the option to download the information by requesting the data be emailed to you in CSV format.
More than 1,000 bores and wells currently have water quality results available. Some bores have only been sampled once, while others are monitored regularly.
