This title introduces three important elements. First, it is a particular kind of study. Second, it is oriented to reconciling conflicting interests. Third, it deals with wild land in public ownership. We have attempted to do much more than present a report involving inventory and assessment of resources and recommendations of a package of resource uses. Certainly from the beginning this project has had as its main puroose the formulation of a multi-objective use plan, producing a recommended use planning outline for the Mavora Lakes area. It was with this aim that a proposal was submitted to the Director General of Lands to secure financial support for the project.

If a gate is open or closed leave it that way. • A farm is the owner’s livelihood and if they say no dogs, then please respect this. • When driving on riverbeds keep to marked tracks or park on the bank and walk to your fishing spot. • Never push in on a pool occupied by another angler. If you are in any doubt have a chat and work out who goes where. • However, if agreed to share the pool then always enter behind any angler already there. • Move upstream or downstream with every few casts (unless you are alone).

  • Classification of Gravel Component Lake Beaches in the South Island
    Classification of Gravel Component Lake Beaches in the South Island, New Zealand By Margaret Winter A thesis submitted to the University of Otago in fulfilment of the requirements of a Masters of Science degree in Geography. University of Otago 2012 ‘There are only two types of waves you need to know about in life, those that’ll kill you and those that won’t.’ G.L. Winter i Abstract Lake beaches with a gravel component (sediments > 2 mm in b-axis diameter) have received very little attention in the coastal geomorphology literature. This research is based on 19 lakes in the South Island of New Zealand that were surveyed and sampled in summer, 2010 to 2011, and winter, 2011. Methods included lakeshore surveys, sediment sieving, and lake wave hindcasting using the ACES model. Results show that three types of lake beach were present. The beach types were pure gravel beaches (all sediments > 2 mm diameter), mixed sand and gravel (MSG) beaches (mixed sediments down the profile), and composite gravel beaches (pure gravel upper beach with an often shallower sand/silt lower profile). MSG beaches sometimes lacked sand in the upper shore and changed to a more mixed sand and gravel sediment in the lower shore. Two of the seven composite beaches studied displayed mixed sediment in the upper shore instead of pure gravel. Linear discriminant analysis returned a good discrimination rate between lake beach types (66.7 % of beach correctly predicted), though only sorting was a useful discriminator (average grain size, sorting, beach width, storm berm elevation, number of berms, and Iribarren number were tested).

  • Report 99-004 Cessna 206 ZK-EKJ Impact with Mountainous Terrain By
    Report 99-004 Cessna 206 ZK-EKJ impact with mountainous terrain by Mount Suter 17 km south of Milford Sound 18 April 1999 Abstract On Sunday 18 April 1999 at around 1538 hours, ZK-EKJ, a Cessna 206 floatplane on a round-trip scenic flight from Te Anau to overhead Milford Sound, struck the top of a vertical craggy mountain ridge. The pilot and 4 passengers died during the impact. The pilot probably attempted to cross the ridge crest at low level and might have misjudged the height of the ridge top because of visual illusions or distraction. Some localised turbulence or downdraughts and the fast speed of the aircraft may have contributed to the accident. Had the pilot applied a safe ridge crossing technique, including maintaining a sufficient height margin above the ridge, the accident could have been avoided. The pilot was reported to have carried out unnecessary low flying and crossing of ridge crests with minimal clearance on scenic flights, on a number of occasions over several years before the accident. The operator did not, adequately supervise the pilot, independently investigate an allegation of the pilot low flying or establish a system to control or monitor the pilot’s performance and compliance with safety requirements. The pilot’s reported acts of unnecessary low flying were not made known to the Civil Aviation Authority. The operator’s organisational shortcomings that probably contributed to the accident were not identified by or made known to the safety authority. Safety recommendations were made to the operator’s chief executive and the Director of Civil Aviation to address safety issues identified during the investigation.
