Potential Shallow Seismic Sources in the Hamilton Basin Project 16/717 5 July 2017
Final Report on EQC Potential shallow seismic sources in the Hamilton Basin Project 16/717 5 July 2017 Vicki Moon & Willem de Lange School of Science University of Waikato 1. Introduction Following the exposure of a fault within a cutting in a new sub-division development in NE Hamilton, an initial investigation suggested the presence of 4 fault zones within the Hamilton Basin (Figure 1) that represented a potential hazard to infrastructure within the Basin. Hence, the overall aim of the proposal put to EQC was to refine the locations of four potentially active faults within the Hamilton Basin. To achieve this aim, two main phases of geophysical surveying were planned: 1. A seismic reflection survey along the Waikato River channel; and 2. Resistivity surveying to examine the sub- surface structure of identified fault zones. Additional MSc student projects, funded by Waikato Regional Council, were proposed to map the surface geology and geomorphology, and assess the liquefaction potential within the Hamilton Basin. During the course of the project, the initial earthworks Figure 1: Map of the four fault zones that were initially identified from geomorphology for the Hamilton Section of the Waikato Expressway and surface fault exposures, as presented in provided exposures of faults, which resulted in some the original proposal. modification of the project. 2. Methods The two main methodological approaches planned for this project were: 1. A high resolution CHIRP seismic reflection survey along the Waikato River within the Hamilton Basin. A previous study examining the stability of the river banks in response to fluctuating water levels (Wood, 2006) had obtained detailed data on the morphology of the river bed using multi-beam and single-beam echo sounders (MBES and SBES respectively), and side scan sonar. -

Preventing a Second Wave of COVID-19 in Taranaki
Preventing a second wave of COVID-19 in Taranaki Shamini Mahadevan, Jacob Manning Final-year Medical Students 29/04/2020 ABSTRACT Background: The aim of this report is to identify groups once we move from Alert Level 4 who have a high likelihood of reintroducing COVID-19 in Taranaki which would then result in a large number of cases. Methods: A population health risk assessment matrix was created in consultation with various stakeholders and a review of current literature. Results: We identified 31 groups that pose a risk of re-introduction and this included nine groups who were assessed as having a high overall population health risk. The highest risk group was New Zealanders visiting family/whānau (Māori and Pacifika). Other high-risk groups were: New Zealanders visiting whānau (non-Māori), students returning home, young people coming home after losing jobs in major centres, drug dealers/traffickers, organised crime, offshore oil and gas workers, and locum healthcare workers. Conclusions: The best way to prevent a second wave of COVID-19 in Taranaki is by early detection and the use of non-pharmacological measures such as isolation and quarantine. Early detection of COVID-19 needs to target groups who are at high risk of bringing the virus into Taranaki and pose the highest overall population health risk. This report provides guidance on the highest risk groups in Taranaki and the following recommendations are made: Actively testing symptomatic people in the identified high-risk populations Regularly applying an equity lens to the testing data to ensure that high risk groups are being tested. -
