A Geospatial Assessment of Critical Infrastructure Impacts and Adaptations in Small Rural Towns Following the 14 November 2016 (Kaikōura) Earthquake, New Zealand

Additionally, facilities that people take for granted in larger population centres, such as supermarkets and schools, are more widely distributed in low population density regions. We adopt the 14 November 2016 (Kaikōura) earthquake in New Zealand as a case study to explore critical infrastructure challenges and impacts, service disruptions, and community adaptations in four small North Canterbury and Marlborough towns – Waiau, Culverden, Seddon and Ward. However, behavioural, infrastructure and legislative adaptations can be inherent or quick to evolve in small towns with frequent service disruptions. Despite these factors, small towns are often underrepresented in impact assessments and appear to have been a low priority for investigation in the past. -
Introduction Getting There the Hurunui River the Waiau River
Introduction The Hurunui and Waiau Rivers offer a more relaxed fishing experience than the bigger braided rivers further south. They are home to North Canterbury’s best populations of brown trout in addition to seasonal populations of sea run salmon. The Hurunui and Waiau Rivers flow through hills for most of their length and are Canterbury’s most scenic braided rivers. In places, the presence of hills on the riverbanks make access challenging but anglers who put in the effort should be well rewarded. Getting There The Waiau River The Hurunui and Waiau Rivers lie around 90 and 130 kilometres north clears after a fresh. The section of river on either side of the State The Waiau River runs through a series of gorges from the Alps to the of Christchurch City respectively. The lower reaches are accessed from Highway 7 (Balmoral) Bridge is the easiest to access. Mid January until sea. Access can be difficult in places but is more than made up for by roads leading off State Highway 1. Both rivers benefit from a number mid March is the best time to fish for salmon in the Hurunui River. the stunning scenery on offer. The Waiau Mouth is a popular spot for of bridges which are the principle access points for anglers wishing to salmon fishing but can only be accessed by launching a jet boat at fish the middle reaches. In the upper reaches of the Hurunui, access is Populations of brown trout can be found anywhere from the mouth up Spotswood and boating downstream for ten minutes. -
Hanmer Springs
Survey of business owner/managers’ perceptions of outdoor smokefree areas: Hanmer Springs July 2017 Survey and report prepared by: Cancer Society, Canterbury-West Coast division Information Team, Community & Public Health, Canterbury District Health Board Executive summary Introduction Community support for smokefree outdoor areas is well documented, however, there is little local data on tourism-related business owner/manager’s perceptions of smoking, smokefree policy and smokefree outdoor areas. The aim of this survey was to gauge tourism industry views on these issues to guide the Cancer Society’s advocacy work with the Hurunui District Council (HDC). Methods A survey of owner/managers of tourism-related businesses in Hanmer Springs was conducted in February and March 2017. Forty-two owner/managers representing 44 businesses completed a face- to-face or telephone interviewer-administered questionnaire. Main findings More than three-quarters of respondents thought that outdoor dining/seating areas should be smokefree. Forty-six percent of respondents thought that smokefree outdoor dining should be introduced using a voluntary policy, while the remaining 54 percent thought that it should be introduced using a regulated local policy. Most respondents stated that they would be more likely to support smokefree outdoor areas if there was evidence of success where smokefree outdoor areas were in place, and customer, community and council support for smokefree outdoor areas. Forty-one percent of respondents thought that introducing more smokefree outdoor areas in Hanmer Springs would have a positive impact on tourism, and 43% thought that it would make no difference. Most respondents (88.1%) stated that they would support a smokefree main street in Hanmer Springs. -
Hurunui District Farm Case Studies Following the November 2016 M7.8 Hurunui-Kaikōura Earthquake
Analysing Cascading Hazard Impacts and Recovery at Farm Level: Hurunui District Farm Case Studies following the November 2016 M7.8 Hurunui-Kaikōura Earthquake A thesis Submitted in partrial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Engineering Geology at the University of Canterbury By Jess McHale University of Canterbury 2018 Dry land, sudden shock Cascading earth, water, stock New course, same old farm ii Abstract Farming and urban regions are impacted by earthquake disasters in different ways, and feature a range of often different recovery requirements. In New Zealand, and elsewhere, most earthquake impact and recovery research is urban focused. This creates a research deficit that can lead to the application of well-researched urban recovery strategies in rural areas to suboptimal effect. To begin to reduce this deficit, in-depth case studies of the earthquake impacts and recovery of three New Zealand farms severely impacted by the 14th November 2016, M7.8 Hurunui-Kaikōura earthquake were conducted. The initial earthquake, its aftershocks and coseismic hazards (e.g., landslides, liquefaction, surface rupture) affected much of North Canterbury, Marlborough and the Wellington area. The three case study farms were chosen to broadly represent the main types of farming and topography in the Hurunui District in North Canterbury. The farms were directly and indirectly impacted by earthquakes and related hazards. On-farm infrastructure (e.g., woolsheds, homesteads) and essential services (e.g., water, power), frequently sourced from distributed networks, were severely impacted. The earthquake occurred after two years of regional drought had already stressed farm systems and farmers to restructuring or breaking point. -

Canterbury District Health Board (CDHB) 2. The CDHB is responsible for promoting the reduction of adverse environmental effects on the health of people and communities and to improve, promote and protect their health pursuant to the New Zealand Public Health and Disability Act 2000 and the Health Act 1956. 3. These statutory obligations are the responsibility of the Ministry of Health and, in the Canterbury District, are carried out under contract by Community and Public Health under Crown funding agreements on behalf of the Canterbury District Health Board. General comments 4. Health and wellbeing (overall quality of life) is influenced by a wide range of factors beyond the health sector. These influences can be described as the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age, and are impacted by environmental, social and behavioural factors. They are often referred to as the ‘social determinants of health1. Barton and Grant’s Health Map2 shows how various influences on health are complex and interlinked. -

Report on Altering Waiau River to Waiau Uwha Flows from Thompson Pass in the Spenser Mountains to the South Pacific Ocean South of Kaikoura
Report on altering Waiau River to Waiau Uwha Flows from Thompson Pass in the Spenser Mountains to the South Pacific Ocean south of Kaikoura MAP 1 Source: MapToaster™ NZTopo250 sheets 18 and 19 Crown Copyright Reserved SUMMARY • Te Rūnanga o Kaikōura (TRoK) is seeking to alter the recorded name, Waiau River, to Waiau Uwha, without the generic term ‘River’. • TRoK’s tradition is that ‘Waiau Uwha, the female river, coupled with Waiau Toa [Clarence River], the male river, drifted away from each other. Waiau Uwha laments this separation and her tears swell the waters when melted snow enters the river’. • TRoK has also made a proposal to alter Clarence River to Waiau Toa. • The river flows generally south and then east for approximately 160 km from its source below Thompson Pass in the Spenser Mountains to its mouth at the South Pacific Ocean, approximately 50 km southwest of Kaikoura. • TRoK has provided evidence of the river being named ‘Waiauuwha’, ‘Waiau-uha’ and ‘Waiau uha’. Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori has confirmed that the orthography ‘Waiau Uwha’ is correct, and advised that ‘ua’ can be a contraction of ‘uha’, which is a variant form of ‘uwha’. • Altering Waiau River to Waiau Uwha River (or Waiau Uwha without the generic term) would recognise the historical significance of the name, 1 Land Information New Zealand 20 April 2016 Page 1 of 9 Linzone ID A2160684 and support TRoK’s desire to have the meaning and story behind the name live on. It would also meet the NZGB’s statutory function to collect and encourage the use of original Māori names on official charts and maps. -
