  • Project Update 2: Taupō Sports Fishery Review
    Exploring Future Opportunities for the Taupō Fishery Project Update #2 The Taupō Sports Fishery Review is now progressing through the final stages of the public consultation and engagement stage. To date the Project Team has met with the following groups: • Lake Rotoaira Forest Trust • Taupō District Council • Key Department staff, including Fisheries Staff • Fish and Game • Business, marketing and events representatives • Local fishing guides (Turangi and Taupō, Boat and River ) Members of the working team have also talked to a wide number of individuals (fishing guides, business owners, fishers etc) who have contacted us and provided some useful insights and information based on their knowledge and experience in the Taupō Fishery and wider. Survey The online survey has also closed with 742 responses received, a summary report is attached. The responses are currently being assessed by APR Experts (who are preparing the economic assessment of the fishery) and Michael in National Office (to look at social responses, comments and trends). The team is very pleased with this response and is far in excess of what was anticipated. Economic Assessment The 1983 economic assessment of the Taupō Fishery is currently being revised by APR Consultants, who undertook the initial report. This assessment will provide the value of the fishery to the Taupō District as well as a wider range of information on use and associated spending and user trends. Public Workshops Two public workshops have been scheduled next week in Turangi and Taupō. The intent of the workshops is to provide participants with a brief update on the progress of the project and test some of the findings of the survey and wider consultation to date.

  • 2 Acknowledgement and Apology
    NGATI TUWHARETOA DEED OF SETTLEMENT 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND APOLOGY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT 3.1 The Crown recognises that every generation of Ngāti Tūwharetoa since 1840 has been adversely affected by the Crown’s failure to uphold its obligations under te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi. The Crown’s recognition of Ngāti Tūwharetoa’s grievances is long overdue. Accordingly, the Crown now makes the following acknowledgements. Treaty of Waitangi/te Tiriti o Waitangi 3.2 The Crown acknowledges that Ngāti Tūwharetoa Ariki Mananui Te Heuheu T0kino II refused to sign te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi. Nevertheless, the Crown further acknowledges that the undertakings it made to Maori in te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi apply to Ngāti Tūwharetoa. The Crown hereby recognises the legitimacy of Ngāti Tūwharetoa’s grievances and historical claims. Pre-1865 Crown Purchasing 3.3 The Crown acknowledges that - 3.3.1 it included land within the boundary of the 1851 Ahuriri purchase in which Ngāti Tūwharetoa had interests, without obtaining any Ngāti Tūwharetoa consent to this transaction; and 3.3.2 it did not pay Ngāti Tūwharetoa for this land until after the Crown had represented this transaction as a completed purchase; and 3.3.3 this was a breach of te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi and its principles. Warfare 3.4 The Crown acknowledges that - 3.4.1 following the invasion of its armed forces in the Waikato in 1863, some hapū of Ngāti Tūwharetoa were drawn into the fighting because of their whakapapa connections and allegiance to the Kingitanga; and 3.4.2 members of Ngāti Tūwharetoa were wounded and killed during the siege and battle at Orakau in 1864, and the loss of these tribal leaders created a profound sense of grief for Ngāti Tūwharetoa, which is still felt to this day.

    MAURI ORA, 1976, 4: 121-131 121 AN ELEMENT SURVEY OF TH E AQUATIC MACROPHYT E S, WATER AND PLANKTON FROM THE WAIKATO RIVER, NORTH ISLAND, NEW' ZEALAND DAVID J. RAWLENCE Department of Extension Studies, University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand and J.S. WHITTON Soil Bureau, D.S.I.R., Private Bag, Lower Hutt, New Zealand ABSTRACT Element levels were determined in aquatic macrophytes, water, and plankton from six hydro-electric storage lakes on the Waikato River, North Island, Ne\~ Zealand. Lakes Ohakuri, Atiamuri, Whakamaru, Maraetai, Arapuni and Karapiro, sampled on 14·and 15 March 1973, yielded the following species: Cerat:ophy11um demersum L., Elodea canadensis Michx., Dagarosiphon major (Ridley) Moss, Egeria densa Planch., pot:amoget:on crispus L., Pot:amoget:on cheesemanii A. Bennett, and Nymphaea alba L. The plankton and macrophytes were analysed for Si, K, P, Na, Mg, Ca, S, Al, Cl, Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, Co, Mo, Ni, V, Cr, Sr, Ba, Pb, Ti, Ga, and Zr. Water samples were analysed for the same elements, except for P. Ceratophy11um from Lake Atiamuri contained the highest levels of 4 of the 5 macronutrients determined: K, 54 000 ~9/gi P, 5 100 ~g/g; Mg 5 000 ~g/gi S, 6 500 ~g/g. The Lagarosiphon sample from Lake Karapiro contained the highest Ca level: 14 800 ~g/g. The highest levels of the six micro­ nutrient elements determined were: Cl, 21 000 ~g/g, Mn, 4 700 ~g/g (both-in Ceratophyllum); Fe, 1 130 )Jg/g, Co, 10.4 ~g/g, and lY",o, 5.6 ~g/g (in Potamoget:on crispus) i and Cu, 5 ~g/g (in Egeria densa).
