Metal contaminants were analysed by Hill Laboratories and reported elsewhere. NIWA provided analytical data for organochlorine pesticides (OCs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and particle size distributions (0-300 μm). This report describes methodology and presents results [including quality assurance (QA) data] for the analyses of OCs, PAHs and particle size distributions for estuarine sediment samples collected from Porirua Harbour in 2010.
