	Opening of the Settlement
		The first part of the road contract was not the opening up of the line of communication with AUCKLAND, but the construction of bridges and culverts in the AHUROA district where the pioneers of 1863 had their holdings.
		By the end of1869, the Puhoi Road numbered 32 bridges and culverts, and in 1873, the landowners of the district formed the PUHOI Road Board and levied1penny in the pound on all land.
		The river services ceased with the metalling of the roads, heavy motor carriers then started operation and today the transport facilities are most efficient.

		The Wairua River at Mangakahia Road rose to 3.0 metres while water levels in the Mangakahia River at Titoki reached a maximum of 10.5 metres.
		The flow regimes of Northland's rivers are influenced mainly by climate and geology.
		The flows in the Punakitere and Mangakahia Rivers were typical of many of Northland rivers, in that they were below their expected winter/spring flows but recovered after November to near average flows for the remainder of the year.

	Survival
		When the first Bohemians left their homeland in 1863, they knew virtually nothing about the natives apart from what little they had gathered from Michael KRIPPNER as he was extolling the virtues of the wonderful country that lay ahead.
		The local Nga-Whetu tribe, whose village site was at Te Muri on the coast near the Puhoi River mouth, was subordinate to other tribes and probably never had a population in excess of 100.
		Subsequently, as all purchases of land from the Maoris had to be through the Crown (to guard against exploitation), this sale was investigated but was ratified as being fair by the ‘Old Lands Claims’ Commissioner in the Auckland court.

	Polynesian Mythology: Legend of the Emigration of Turi
		When little Hawepotiki saw all the other lads swimming and playing in the river, he was thrown off his guard and ran there too, and Turi waylaid him, and killed him in a moment, and thus revenged the death of Potikiroroa.
		When they had got near enough to the shore to see distinctly, they foolishly threw the red plumes they wore on their heads into the sea, these being old, dirty, and faded, from length of wear, for they thought, although wrongly, the red things they saw in such abundance on the shore were similar ornaments.
		He travelled along the coast-line from Aotea to Patea, having sent one party before him, under Pungarehu, ordering them to plant the stones of the berries of the Karaka-tree, which they had brought with them, all along their route, in order that so valuable an article of food might be introduced into these islands.

	NRC - Fresh water resource consents (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The demand for water for pasture irrigation has triggered a large increase in the amount of water being taken from Northland's streams and rivers.
		Having records at their fingertips enables staff to inform major water users if levels are dropping towards the point where they may have to stop taking water or reduce their take.
		Because some Northland streams and rivers are fully allocated, and because those irrigating from streams are forced to stop pumping as river levels drop during extreme dry periods, farmers are increasingly turning to dams to ensure that they have a reliable water source when they need it most.
