  • Our Port History to Modern Day August 2013
    Port History to Modern Day S:\Port Information\Our Port History to Modern Day August 2013 2 EARLY HISTORY OF THE PORT OF TAURANGA 1290 Judge Wilson in his Sketches of Ancient Maori Life and History records that the canoe Takitumu carrying immigrants from Hawaiiki arrived in approximately 1290 AD and found Te Awanui (as Tauranga was then named) in the possession of a tribe of aborigines whose name, Puru Kopenga, or full net testified to the rich harvest to be drawn from the surrounding waters. 1769 In November, Captain James Cook passed close to Tauranga (pronounced Towrangha ) but did not enter the harbour. 1828 Probably the first European vessel to visit Tauranga was the missionary schooner Herald that called during this year. 1853 Captain Drury in HMS Pandora surveyed and charted the coast and harbour. 1864 Under the Marine Board Act of 1863, the Auckland Provincial Government Superintendent appointed the first pilot Captain T S Carmichael on 8 December 1864. He fixed leading buoys and marks in position to define the navigable channel, and his first piloting assignment was to bring HMS Esk into the harbour. The first house at Mount Maunganui was built for him late in 1866, to replace the tent in which he had lived during the previous two years. Copies of his early diaries are held in Tauranga s Sladden Library. Tauranga is probably the only Port in the country to experience a naval blockade. The Government of the day, fearful that arms would be run to hostile Maori warriors, imposed the blockade by notice in the New Zealand Gazette dated 2 April 1864.

This task is controlled by the Working Group 3 of the WPCAP. • As a first step towards this objective, a state-of-the art analysis of P2S solutions currently in operation has been developed. This analysis is based on the answers to a questionnaire. 3 Questionnaire The ports that have been part of the survey are as follows: • Port of Rotterdam • HAROPA- Port of Le Havre • Port of Zeebrugge • Port of Kristiansand • Port of Ystad • Port of Hamburg • Port of Vancouver • Port of Halifax • Port of Seattle • Port of Gothenburg • Port of New York & New Jersey • Ports of Stockholm • Port of Long Beach • Port of Barcelona • Port of Los Angeles • Port of Kemi These ports have P2S solutions in place.

The records that were donated to USC were chiefly those that were generated in the 1940s and 50s as part of the Tidelands controversies, concerning the Los Angeles / Long Beach / Wilmington harbor areas, and documenting channels, wetlands, islands, elevations, and shoreline. In addition to many maps, drawings, and historical files, the records consist of many volumes of land surveys (done by civil engineer Francis Bates) which were done in the old tidelands area in the 1930s and 40s. Mr. Bates also obtained copies of many of the original rancho documents for this area (e.g. Rancho Los Cerritos) to provide a complete history of the harbor, onshore and offshore.
