Crp-Edendale-Public-Version.Pdf Southland has NO Civil Defence sirens (fire brigade sirens are not used as warnings for a Civil Defence emergency) Edendale Community Response Plan 2018 If you’d like to become part of the Edendale Community Response Group Please email [email protected] Find more information on how you can be prepared for an emergency www.cdsouthland.nz In the event of an emergency, communities may need to support themselves for up to 10 days before assistance arrive. Community Response Planning In the event of an emergency, communities may need to support themselves for up to 10 days before assistance arrives. The more prepared a community is, the more likely it is that the community will be able to look after themselves and others. This plan contains a short demographic description of Edendale, information about key hazards and risks, information about Community Emergency Hubs where the community can gather, and important contact information to help the community respond effectively. Members of the Edendale Community Response Group have developed the information contained in this plan and will be Emergency Management Southland’s first points of community contact in an emergency. Demographic Details • Edendale is contained within the Southland District Council area; • Edendale has a population of approximately 555 people and the population of the wider area is approximately 2,400 people; • State Highway 1 goes through Edendale; • the KiwiRail main trunk line for the South Island passes through Edendale; • The town has a milk processing plant operated by Fonterra; • The broad geographic area for the Edendale Community Response Plan includes Brydone, Seaward Downs, Gorge Road, Mokotua, Rimu, Waimatua, Mabel Bush, Woodlands, Dacre and Te Tipua; • The town has a fire service, primary school, and an early learning childcare facility. Within the wider district there are four primary schools and one kindergarten. Hazard and Risk Information Earthquake • Like much of the South Island, Edendale would be affected during an Alpine Fault earthquake. The most likely impacts for Edendale would be loss of lifelines causing loss of communication, water supply, power and road disruption. Agricultural and biosecurity • As the Edendale area includes a large rural based community any impacts to livestock or for land use could have major economic and health impacts, especially around psychosocial impacts. Flooding • In the event of a flood, anyone farming, whitebaiting and fishing on the Lower Mataura River would be affected. Hazardous Substance Spill • State Highway 1 and the KiwiRail main trunk line both pass through the Edendale township. These are both major transportation routes, and can transport any number of hazardous substances, posing the potential for a hazardous substances spill. The drift of potentially dangerous smoke or fumes or the run-off of hazardous materials might place the community at risk and necessitate the evacuation of some areas. Identified Potential Vulnerable Sub Communities • Schools – Edendale Primary School (approximate roll 150) - Woodlands Full Primary School (approximate roll 110) - Rimu Full Primary School (approximate roll 117) - Gorge Road Full Primary School (approximate roll 40) - Te Tipua Full Primary School (approximate roll 43) • Kindergartens - Longbush Rural Kindergarten (approximate roll 30) • Preschool - Little Ones Early Learning Centre – licenced for 45 children • Elderly in the community; • Rurally isolated people including migrant employees; • People with disabilities. Community Emergency Hubs Community Emergency Hubs provide pre-identified places where the community can gather in the event of an emergency. Not all Hubs will be suitable during an emergency, and it is up to the community to decide at the time. It is possible that a new venue will need to be found, but the concept of a location where the community gather is vital during a response as people seek immediate support, shelter, comfort and information. Each pre-determined location will be provided with a hub guide and be able to access advice from Emergency Management Southland if they require further information or support. In Edendale, Community Emergency Hub locations identified by the community are: • Christian Activity Centre, George Street, Edendale • Scout Den, Seaward Road, Edendale • Edendale Rugby Club, SH1, Edendale Key Identified Local Resources Water Treatment, Supply and Plumbing Organisation Phone Other details Southland District Council 0800732732 Urban water supply, Sewerage scheme, Stormwater Electrical Services Organisation Phone Other details Donald Electrical 03 206 6960 [email protected] Additional resourcing Organisation Phone Other details Pioneer Tavern & Motel 03 206 6890 Woodlands Tavern 03 231 3120 Gorge Road Country Club 03 239 5892 [email protected] Herberts Transport 03 206 9966 [email protected] Kapuka Heenans Transport 03 231 3237 (Woodlands) [email protected] 03 239 5854 (Kapuka) [email protected] Caldwells Contracting 03 206 6465 [email protected] Edenview Camp 03 206 6464 Edendale Dairy 03 206 6940 Edendale Discount Store 03 206 6585 Mokotua Store 03 239 5729 Mokotua Garage 03 239 5819 Woodlands Butchery & Store 03 231 3481 Seaward Downs Community 021 064 5486 Centre VetCo 03 206 6170 – Edendale 03 230 4689 - Kennington Fonterra Emergency Response Co-ordinator – Scott Cameron Clark Contracting 03 206 6547 Trevor Clearwater Contracting 03 206 6016 Agnews Garage 03 206 6600 Donald Engineering 03 206 6319 027 558 9942 Beck Engineering 03 206 6650 027 206 6651 Dougs Engineering 03 231 3315 027 439 5167 Schools, Rest home, Medical and Community Organisations Name Contact Phone Email Edendale Primary David McKenzie [email protected] School Woodlands Primary Fiona Murray 03 231 3198 [email protected] School Rimu Primary School Kate Webster 03 230 4415 [email protected] Gorge Road Primary Jenny Craig 03 239 5763 [email protected] School Te Tipua Primary Jenny Mockford 03 203 8550 [email protected] School Longbush Kindergarten Jo Wilkes 03 231 3148 [email protected] Little Ones Early Nadine Rhind 03 206 6216 [email protected] Learning Centre Plunket Caroline Blackmore Pioneer Lions Club Jan Wylie Edendale Rugby Club Denise Fodie Woodlands Rugby Club Richard Smith Rural Women Seaward Beverley Hillis Downs Angling Club Mark Rule Recreational Roger Whitebaiters McNaughton Association Edendale Scouts Allistair Gauldie Woodlands Scouts Kate Sherriff Toi Toi Scouts Ross Fox Community Board Pam Yorke contact Gorge Road CDA Ray Waghorn Woodlands CDA Michael Straith Community Response Group Contact lists (some numbers have been removed for public release) Community Response Group Contact lists Key local emergency service contacts Police Richard Lindsay Fire Scott Cameron Fire Brent Shepherd St John Jan Douglas Community Emergency Hub key holders Name Contact Phone Second phone or email Christian Activity Centre Alvin & Liz Pask Edendale Scout Den Allister Gauldie Edendale Rugby Clubrooms Kevin Heads Community Response Group Members Name Phone Second phone Email Ken Holland Bob Schmidt (Woodlands) Charlie Keenan (Kapuka South) Sheree Keenan (Kapuka South) Mark Hamill (Gorge Road) Tracy Beck (Gorge Road) Sue Beck (Gorge Road) David McKenzie Allister Gauldie Angela Gibbs Alvin Pask Reece Cameron Bob Wallis Malcolm McLean Community Response Groups into Recovery Community Response Groups will be vital during the recovery of a community.

    1 IN CONVERSATION WITH THE MAYOR GARY TONG through new technology (such as through our roading team’s use of drones). On a personal note, two things have stood have out this year; one of great sadness, the other a highlight. Sadly, we farewelled former Mayor Frana Cardno in April. She was a great role model and the reason I got into politics; a wonderful woman who will be sadly missed. Rest in peace, Frana. At the other end of the spectrum, in May I helped host His Mayor Gary Tong Royal Highness Prince Harry’s visit to Stewart Island. He’s a top bloke whose visit generated fantastic publicity for the Much like before crossing the road, island and Southland District.

The intention was that this would give another 15-20 years of life to the burner. 3 In 2015, it was suggested that there was an electrical fault and the burner was taken out of service with the wire being cut between the wall and the thermostat in the main hall and the burner unit. 4 The previous CDA had identified a project to upgrade the windows, paint the interior, install a zip and replace the LED lights. This was costed at approximately $40,000. 5 Subsequent to that decision being made the former Ohai Bowling Club building was gifted back to the community of Ohai and a decision was made to consult with the wider community about the comparative cost of upgrading and maintaining the Bowling Club and the Hall with a view to only keeping one building for use by the community. 6 In February 2018, at the first informal meeting of the new Ohai Community Development Area Subcommittee, the hall heating was identified as being a priority project for the Subcommittee and staff were requested to investigate alternative heating options.

  • The Soils of Southland and Their Potential Uses E
    THE SOILS OF SOUTHLAND AND THEIR POTENTIAL USES E. J. B. CUTLER, Pedologist, Soil Bureau, Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Dunedin The pedologist should concern himself not only with mapping and classification of soils; he should examine the use to which soils are put and the changes that take place under varying kinds of use or misuse. The soil survey is only the starting point; it shows the physical, chemical and genetic characteristics of soils, their distribution and relationship to environment. First of all we are interested in the nature of our soils in their undisturbed native state. We can then~ follow the changes that have taken place with changing farming techniques and try to predict desirable changes or modifications; changes which will not only improve the short term production from the soils, but enable us to maintain long-term, sustained-yield production. These prin- ciples apply equally in the mountains and on the plains. Secondly we are interested in seeing that our soil resources arc used most efficiently; that usage of soils takes place in a logical way and that those concerned .with economics are aware of the limitations of the soil as well as of its potentialities. Thirdly there is the aesthetic viewpoint, perhaps not capable of strict scientific treatment but nonetheless a very important one to all of us as civilised people. There is no reason why our landscape should not be planned for pleasure as well as for profit. THE SOILS OF SOUTHLAND The basic soil pattern of Southland is fairly simple; there are three groups of soils delineated primarily by climatic factors.

  • Anthropogenic Impacts on Waituna Lagoon: Reconstructing The
    i Anthropogenic impacts on Waituna Lagoon: Reconstructing the environmental history Sarai Cosgrove 2011 A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for a Master of Science degree in Ecology at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand ii iii Abstract Waituna Lagoon is a shallow temperate coastal lagoon in Southland, New Zealand. The 1,350 hectare Waituna Lagoon and associated wetland system is of national and international importance for its unique ecology and the cultural values placed upon it. Waituna is opened to the sea ca. 1-2 times annually, during which time it becomes estuarine. This opening regime has been artificially managed since 1908, with an unknown impact on the lagoon. Since 2007, Waituna appears to have experienced rapid degradation and eutrophication, possibly due to intensification of farming in its catchment. It has rare, extensive beds of the seagrasses Ruppia megacarpa and Ruppia polycarpa, which have been lost from many similar systems due to eutrophication and sedimentation. Waituna Lagoon is currently under active management to preserve its unique ecology, and its restoration to a more natural state is being considered. This study aims to reconstruct Waituna Lagoon’s natural opening regime and Ruppia dynamics, as understanding the natural ecosystem is important for restoration. The hypotheses are: (1) that under a natural opening regime, environmental variations within Waituna Lagoon were less frequent but more extreme; (2) that Ruppia was not present in Waituna Lagoon under a natural opening regime; and (3) that Ruppia was not dominant in Waituna Lagoon under a natural opening regime. Three push cores (130, 83 and 64 cm length) were collected from the sheltered Shand Bay and from the wind-exposed, deepest site in the main lagoon.
