AN East Cape hapu will hikoi in continued protest against a coastal barging operation proposed for their isolated town. Te Whanau a Hinerupe say the marine ecology is already in “crisis” and a proposal to build a barging facility at the mouth of the Karakatuwhero River will send it beyond a state of repair. Whanau say they are not just tangata whenua (people of the land) but also tangata moana (people of the ocean), and they must be the voice for that which cannot speak for itself. About 30 people attended a hui at Hinerupe Marae in Te Araroa on Sunday and voted to “reaffirm” Te Whanau a Hinerupe’s stance of “total opposition” to a barging facility on the East Coast between Potikirua and Whangaokeno.

Small numbers of lambs have arrived on ‘earlies’ arrivals the lower country around the district and that rate will steadily increase in the next few weeks. The main lambing “drop” happens from mid-August and into September. AgFirst consultant Peter Andrew said the cold weather would make it tough for the new arrivals. “This time of year for lambing is what we call ‘the earlies”, and those ewes have started delivering. “This is the time when ewes that were mated from February 20 onwards begin to give birth,” Mr Andrew said. “These ewes are mated early for storm risk, drought management and marketing reasons. “Most farmers factor in that they need to breed sheep and manage them so they will be able to lamb in wet and cold conditions “The current cold weather will provide some threat to the survival rate of the new arrivals but it should not be that significant.” Mr Andrew said feed-wise the region has been pretty well off, with good grass growth through the late autumn and so far into winter. “It varies but generally there is plenty for most of the new mums to eat, which is critical for both milk and lamb survival. “At the top of the coast and in some places inland, feed is really short, which will mean lighter animals, and the situation has not been helped with rainfall dumps damaging floodgates and tracks.”. Mr Andrew said scanning had not been anything out of the ordinary. “Some farmers have held their scanning levels but a lot have dropped, and that’s especially so up the Coast north of Tolaga Bay. “It is a bit of a shame as in September farmers are going to be receiving $10 a WINTER LAMBS: Sylvie Ladd, 9, and brother Thom Ladd, 4½, feed hungry lambs they have called Molly and Winter at their kilogram for lamb, probably a record. farm at Knight Road, Patutahi.

STEADY PROGRESS: The replacement of 120 metres of revetment at the junction of the three rivers has almost hit the halfway point, with repairs expected to be finished in August. A challenge of the job was contractors can only work three hours either side of low tide during daylight hours. The band rotunda area has been cordoned off since-mid June. Gisborne District Council 4 waters operations manager Chris Hopman said three sections, totalling 120m, from in front of the rotunda to near the Peel Street Bridge were being replaced. The $524,000 project was planned and budgeted for in the Long Term Plan, Mr Hopman said. “The revetment is made from timber piles supported by steel anchors into the bank. Some timbers are rotten, especially at the low water line. Some anchors have failed and the piles have moved forwards towards the river.” Picture by Liam Clayton 4 NEWS The Gisborne Herald • Tuesday, July 13, 2021
