Environmental reporting
To find out how successful we are in our efforts to manage the environment in a sustainable way, we prepare annual reports and summary report cards on air quality, bathing water quality, freshwater quality, surface water hydrology, groundwater and coastal monitoring. These reports and more detailed technical reports contribute to Greater Wellington's five-yearly State of the Environment Report, known as Measuring Up.
Every quarter we produce hydrological summaries of recent trends in rainfall, river flows and groundwater levels.

Greater Wellington monitors rainfall, river flows and groundwater levels at more than 100 sites across the Wellington region. Every quarter we summarise the information collected to give a general picture of recent trends.
