There a several different types of pollution in the Waikato river, coming from different sources:
Agricultural pollution is leached into the ground water, and contained in the runoff. This includes fertilizers and effluents.
The Wairakei Geothermal Power Station is the major cause of greatly exceeded arsenic levels in the river.
Treated human wastes are pumped in downriver of several towns including Hamilton.
Waste from unlined landfills also leaks in, as has been reported to be happening at the waste dump of Horotiu.
