Surface Water Quality the Water of Leith and Lindsay's Creek Kaikorai
Surface water quality The Water of Leith and Lindsay’s Creek Kaikorai Stream Waitati River and Carey’s Creek © Copyright for this publication is held by the Otago Regional Council. This publication may be reproduced in whole or in part provided the source is fully and clearly acknowledged. ISBN 1-877265-67-5 Published August 2008 Water of Leith, Kaikorai, Waitati and Carey’s Creek i Foreword To help protect water quality, the Otago Regional Council (ORC) carries out long- term water quality monitoring as part of a State of the Environment programme. To supplement this information, targeted and detailed short-term monitoring programmes are also implemented in some catchments. This report provides the results from more detailed investigations carried out in three catchments: Water of Leith Kaikorai Stream Waitati River and Carey’s Creek The Water of Leith and Kaikorai Stream are both located in Dunedin and drain typical residential and industrial areas. Both watercourses have many stormwater outfalls which compromise water quality. The Waitati River and Carey’s Creek have little development in their catchments. The upper catchments are forested while lower in the catchment, pasture dominates. Water quality is generally very good. This report forms a baseline study from which ORC and local community programmes can work together to address various issues in the catchments. It is hoped that these catchment programmes will promote environmentally sound practices which will sustain and improve water quality.

James Macandrew of Otago Slippery Jim Or a Leader Staunch and True?
JAMES MACANDREW OF OTAGO SLIPPERY JIM OR A LEADER STAUNCH AND TRUE? BY RODERICK JOHN BUNCE A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2013 iii ABSTRACT James Macandrew, a Scotsman who migrated to Dunedin in 1851, was variously a businessman, twice Superintendent of Otago Province, an imprisoned bankrupt and a Minister of the Crown. He was an active participant in provincial and colonial politics for 36 years and was associated with most of the major political events in New Zealand during that time. Macandrew was a passionate and persuasive advocate for the speedy development of New Zealand’s infrastructure to stimulate the expansion of settlement. He initiated a steamer service between New Zealand and Australia in 1858 but was bankrupt by 1860. While Superintendent of Otago in 1860 and 1867–76 he was able to advance major harbour, transport and educational projects. As Minister of Public Works in George Grey’s Ministry from 1878–79 he promoted an extensive expansion of the country’s railway system. In Parliament, he was a staunch advocate of easier access to land for all settlers, and a promoter of liberal social legislation which was enacted a decade later by the Seddon Government. His life was interwoven with three influential settlers, Edward Gibbon Wakefield, Julius Vogel and George Grey, who variously dominated the political landscape. Macandrew has been portrayed as an opportunist who exploited these relationships, but this study will demonstrate that while he often served these men as a subordinate, as a mentor he influenced their political beliefs and behaviour. -
