convince industry that we are focused on driving efficiency into our Foreword from the processes – without compromising the effectiveness of the outcomes they deliver. We consider our efforts towards delivering value for Authority money and actively participating in transport and wider public sector efficiency initiatives to be strong evidence of our commitment in this area. Insofar as the projects we are managing are concerned, our results are a little uneven. Sound progress in most projects, including the Funding Review, has been offset by the Maritime Operator Safety System and Seafarer Qualification projects remaining, stubbornly, ‘on the books’. However, the changes in deliverables are partly the result of our responding to industry feedback, and the revised timeframes are considered to be robust and on track for delivery.

  • Analysis of the Grounding of the MV Rena in New Zealand, 5 October, 2011
    DOI: ISSN : Analysis of the grounding of the MV Rena in New Zealand, 5 October, 2011. Ian G. McLean Dept of Forestry and Resource Management, Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology, Mokoia Drive, Rotorua, New Zealand 3046; E-Mail: [email protected] Corresponding Author: Ian G. McLean [email protected] ABSTRACT The grounding of the general cargo vessel MV Rena near Tauranga Harbor in October 2011 was New Zealand’s worst environmental disaster. The ship hit an offshore reef, creating hazardous salvage conditions, and the consequent spill of 350 tonnes of fuel oil affected 50 km of coastline and many islands. Many containers fell overboard, creating hazards for other shipping, requiring additional salvage resources, and introducing toxins to the marine environment that are still washing up six years later. The community responded to the disaster by flocking to the beaches and cleaning up the oil by hand, giving well over 20,000 hours of volunteer time. Short- and long-term environmental consequences for wildlife and the inshore marine environment are reviewed, along with the effects on the local economy, the political context and the management response. There were significant economic effects during the summer immediately following the event, but the clean-up appears to have been remarkably successful. While the above-water superstructure of the ship was removed, much of the (broken-up) hull remains on or close to the reef today. The final (legal) decision on the removal of the wreck has enabled abandonment of the wreck. There appear to be few, if any, long-term wider environmental effects although elevated levels of some contaminants are still measurable close to the wreck in 2017.

C/V Rena Oiled Wildlife Response BRETT GARTRELL, HELEN MCCONNELL and KERRI MORGAN New Zealand Wildlife Health Centre IVABS, Massey University, Palmerston North, NZ Email: [email protected] The C/V Rena ran aground on the Astrolabe Reef within the Bay of Plenty in the early hours of October 5th, 2011, carrying 1770T of heavy fuel oil and 1330 containers. Although the New Zealand Wildlife Health Centre at Massey University has had a contractual agreement with Maritime New Zealand for Oiled Wildlife Response (OWR) since 1999, this was the first time this system has been tested in a large-scale spill response. Wildlife personnel and equipment were mobilised within hours of the grounding, and a functional search and collection operation and oiled wildlife facility were up and running within 36 hours of the incident. The co-operation of local people, the Department of Conservation, iwi representatives and the National Oiled Wildlife Response team were essential in delivering an effective mitigation response. Oiled Wildlife Response in New Zealand is fully integrated into the National Oil Spill Contingency Plan, and as such, was incorporated within the Incident Command Structure during the C/V Rena spill response.
