Brook Stream, or Waimarama,[1] is a major tributary of the Maitai / Mahitahi River in Nelson, South Island, New Zealand.
Demand began to exceed supply, and a second weir was constructed to create the Top Dam in 1909.
The Roding River waterworks scheme was completed in 1941 and an intake on the Maitai Mahitahi South Branch completed in 1963.
Restoration of Brook Stream, and waterways in the Maitai catchment, has been a major focus of Project Maitai,[2] a Nelson City Council initiative to improve the health of the Maitai River and all its tributaries.
