	Kawerau Geothermal Development: A case study
		(Kawerau was using geothermal steam a couple of years before Wairakei, and these fields were the first wet geothermal fields to be developed in the world.) Cold groundwater inflows caused the demise of some of the earliest wells with their relatively shallow casings.
		Unlike all current or future geothermal field developments in New Zealand, where reinjection will be incorporated into the process from the start, waste water at Kawerau has been traditionally discharged to the Tarawera River.
		It is possible that shallow reinjection may cause increased flows of geothermal water to the surface possibly in the areas of natural springs which ceased flowing in the 1960s and 1970s; however, this has not yet been observed.
