The track passes through regenerating bush and impressive stands of mature beech/rata forest. Times are one way. Conditions: Dogs are welcome in the northern block. Keep them under control and remove droppings. Dogs must be on a leash on the Pencarrow Coast Road to protect wildlife habitat. Do not take them south of the steep foot track to the historic lighthouse. No dogs are permitted at Baring Head as livestock graze the area. Pack in and pack out. Take your rubbish home and recycle it where possible. Do not remove, disturb or damage native plants and animals. Light no res. Portable stoves are permitted. Mountain biking is permitted on designated tracks in the northern forest (Main Ridge from Wainuiomata to Rata Ridge), in the Parangarahu (Pencarrow) Lakes Area and at Baring Head. The park has moderately steep hills and is exposed in places. There is no shelter in the Parangarahu Lakes Area or Baring Head. As the weather can be changeable please: Carry warm and waterproof clothing Carry enough food and drink for your trip Plan your route and leave your intentions with someoneWear strong lace-up footwear The Hawtry Route on the Main Ridge between the McKenzie Track and the top of the Kereru Track is an unformed track and marked with orange discs. It takes approximately 1 hour to walk this section. In the interests of safety, inexperienced people should allow plenty of time to nish their walk in daylight. Note that it takes at least 30 minutes to walk down from the Main Ridge to Days Bay or Eastbourne. Some sections of the tracks are moderately steep and slippery when wet. Avoid streams in heavy rain. See NZMS sheet BQ32 for further detail of the terrain. https://www.walkingaccess.govt.nz/track/main-ridge-hill-to-ferry-road-days-bay/pdfPreview 2/4 10/1/2021 Main Ridge Hill to Ferry Road, Days Bay — NZ Walking Access Commission Ara Hīkoi Aotearoa How to get here Private vehicle Wainuiomata Hill Road: Near the lookout.

  • Distribution of Geological Materials in Lower Hutt and Porirua, New Zealand a Component of a Ground Shaking Hazard Assessment
    332 DISTRIBUTION OF GEOLOGICAL MATERIALS IN LOWER HUTT AND PORIRUA, NEW ZEALAND A COMPONENT OF A GROUND SHAKING HAZARD ASSESSMENT G. D. Dellow1 , S. A. L. Read 1 , J. G. Begg1 , R. J. Van Dissen1 , N. D. Perrin1 ABSTRACT Geological materials in the Lower Hutt, Eastbourne, Wainuiomata, and Porirua urban areas are mapped and described as part of a multi-disciplinary assessment of seismic ground shaking hazards. Emphasis is mainly on the flat-lying parts of these areas which are underlain by variable Quaternary-age sediments that overlie Permian-Mesowic age 'greywacke' bedrock. Within the Quaternary-age sediments, the two material types recognised on strength characteristics are: 1) Soft sediments, typically composed of normally consolidated, fine-grained materials (sand, silt and clay), with typical standard penetration values (SPT) of <20 blows/300 mm; and 2) Loose to compact coarser-grained materials (sand, gravel), with SPT values of > 20 blows/ 300 mm. The total thickness and nature of Quaternary-age sediments in the study areas is described, with particular emphasis on the thickness and geotechnical properties of near-surface sediments. Such sediments are considered likely to have a significant influence on the an1plification and attenuation of ground shaking intensity during earthquakes. In the Lower Hutt valley, near-surface soft sediments greater than 10 m thick have an areal extent of -16 kni. Such soft sediments underlie much of Petone and the Lower Hutt urban and city centres, and have a maximum known thickness of 27 m near the western end of the Petone foreshore. In the Wainuiomata area, near-surface soft sediments greater than 10 m thick have an areal extent of - 3 krn2, and attain a maximum thickness of 32 m.

  • Barber Grove, Moera, Lower Hutt 1
    Report 16.463 Date 20 September 2016 File CCAB-8-769 Committee Council Author Jozsef Bognar, Property Consultant Land Transfer – Barber Grove, Moera, Lower Hutt 1. Purpose To seek approval to accept the transfer of stopbank and stopbank buffer land located at 23R Barber Grove, Lower Hutt from Hutt City Council (HCC) for flood protection purposes. 2. Background In late 2011 Hutt City Council approached Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) with an offer to transfer a parcel of HCC owned land adjacent to Te Awa Kairangi/Hutt River to GWRC for flood protection purposes. The land offered to GWRC contains part of Te Awa Kairangi/Hutt River stopbank and buffer and has been maintained by GWRC for many years as part of GWRC’s wider flood protection land holdings and responsibilities in that area. As the predominant use of the land is for flood protection purposes, both Councils agreed in principle that it was logical for the transfer to be progressed. An underground HCC wastewater overflow pipe runs through the land and possibly other HCC services. In order to protect HCC’s interest in those services, it was agreed that the transfer of land would be subject to GWRC granting utility services easements to HCC for any existing utilities located within the land. A draft agreement between the parties was prepared in 2012 but HCC put the transaction on hold due to concerns regarding a potential requirement for the Barber Grove land in connection with a major sewer upgrade planned for the Moera/Seaview area. More recently, HCC has advised that the transfer has been cleared to proceed and the parties have now confirmed terms and conditions of the land transfer; subject to the final approval of both Councils.

  • NZS1170.5:2004 Site Subsoil Classification of Lower Hutt
    Proceedings of the Ninth Pacific Conference on Earthquake Engineering Building an Earthquake-Resilient Society 14-16 April, 2011, Auckland, New Zealand NZS1170.5:2004 Site Subsoil Classification of Lower Hutt D. Boon1, N.D. Perrin2, G.D. Dellow2, R. Van Dissen2 & B. Lukovic2 1British Geological Survey, Nottingham, England; 2GNS Science, Lower Hutt, New Zealand ABSTRACT: A 3D engineering geological model of the Quaternary sediments of the Lower Hutt sedimentary basin was constructed from topographic, geological, geophysical, and geotechnical data. The data include 846 borehole records. The three- dimensional geometry of seven basin units was identified based on variations in strength and lithology. Shear-wave velocities measured using a range of geophysical techniques were obtained and compared with the 3D model. Engineering geological boundaries in the 3D model corresponded well with observed changes in shear-wave velocity. This allowed a range of shear-wave velocities to be assigned to each geological unit. The 3D engineering geology model was then used to calculate a shear-wave velocity profile on a 25 m2 grid to produce a site-period model for Lower Hutt. This model is used to derive a site subsoil class map in accordance with the preferred methods described in NZS 1170.5:2004. The site subsoil class C/D boundary was determined using the 0.6s contour from the site-period model. The minimum and maximum shear-wave velocity values for each unit were used to determine the uncertainty in the location of the C/D boundary. Subsoil class E sites were determined using standard penetration test results and surface geology.
