Water resource management rules within a riparian zone might be tailored differently from rules outside such a zone, to account for the strong surface water/groundwater connection. The riparian aquifer zone of the lower section of the Rangitata River which divides the Mayfield-Hinds groundwater allocation zone (GWAZ) and Rangitata-Orton GWAZ has been delineated based on the review of available geological, hydrological and water chemistry data. The Rangitata riparian aquifer zone is conceived to include both shallow and deep groundwater that underlies the margin of land between the Rangitata River and Kapunatiki Creek (encompassing Rangitata Island and the Rangitata South Branch). The historic flood plain on the north side (true-left) of the Rangitata, directly south of Coldstream, is also considered to be part of the riparian zone.

Rainfall over the winter was below average in all parts of the region. However, a dramatic change to well above average rainfall in September served to replenish soil moisture, river flows and groundwater levels. The greatest rainfall anomalies were in North Canterbury, and about the Hunter Hills in South Canterbury. Consequently the highest river flows are now to be found in these areas. For the very southern part of the region, south of the Hunter Hills, September rainfall was not exceptionally high. This, coupled with the accumulated effects of below average rainfall in this part of the region over the nine months prior to September, has resulted in river flows remaining slightly below average in this area. Groundwater levels in shallow aquifers are generally average to above average, owing to recharge from recent rainfall and river flow. Groundwater levels in deeper aquifers are currently low to average, and in the West Melton/Yaldhurst area levels have been low for much of 2003, in response to the continuing effects of low winter recharge.

  • Names & Opening & Closing Dates of Railway Stations
    Names & Opening & Closing Dates of Railway Stations in New Zealand 1863 to 2010 Researched & Written by Juliet Scoble for the Rail Heritage Trust of New Zealand JRS/291 © Juliet Scoble 4/2010 © Rail Heritage Trust of New Zealand 4/2010 Introduction This document lists the names of railway stations and the dates they were opened and closed. Included are the dates stations were opened for goods and or passenger traffic before the lines were officially opened or handed over to the Working Railways Department. Often the Public Works Department would run goods and passenger services whilst the list was still in their custody. These services were operated by the Public Works Department's ballast engine. Goods were carried in Working Railway's wagons. Occasionally a passenger car or covered wagon fitted with seats were provided, but most times passengers were carried in Public Works' ballast wagons. I have included the stations on the lines owned by the government railways, and private lines where government rolling stock was run thereon. This is an on-going work as I am still looking through files and am finding more names and other information to include in this document. Revised versions will be issued from time to time, the frequency depending upon the new information I find. Juliet Scoble 4/2010 Acknowledgements Most information has been obtained from the Rail Heritage Trust's Station Archive created and researched by Juliet Scoble, and from research specifically undertaken for this document.
