BAY OF PLENTY REGIONAL COUNCIL TOI MOANA 1 Executive summary Many of New Zealand’s most well-known lakes and rivers can be found in the Bay of Plenty region and are therefore known to attract significant visitor numbers annually. The preservation and protection of these waterways are what attracts so many international and domestic tourists to them. Due to the close proximity of the Bay of Plenty lakes and rivers, and their popularity, they are extremely susceptible to invasive pest species. -
Occupants' Health and Their Living Conditions of Remote Indigenous
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Occupants’ Health and Their Living Conditions of Remote Indigenous Communities in New Zealand Bin Su 1,* and Lian Wu 2 1 School of Architecture, Unitec Institute of Technology, 0600 Auckland, New Zealand 2 School of Healthcare and Social Practice, Unitec Institute of Technology, 0600 Auckland, New Zealand; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 29 September 2020; Accepted: 9 November 2020; Published: 11 November 2020 Abstract: The New Zealand Ministry of Health reported that respiratory disease affects 700,000 people, annually costs New Zealand NZ$7.05 billion, and is the third-highest cause of death. The hospitalisation rate for asthma of Maori¯ communities is 2.0 higher than that of other ethnic groups, and hospitalisation rates for deprived homes are 2.3 times higher than those of the least deprived homes. Based on physical data and evidence, which were drawn from a mixed methodology that includes field studies of the indoor microclimate, dust-mite allergens, mould growth, and occupants’ Respiratory Health Survey of a number of sample houses of Maori¯ communities in Minginui, Te Whaiti, Murupara, and Rotorua of New Zealand, the study identifies unhealthy indoor thermal conditions, thresholds or ranges of indoor micro-climate related to different levels of dust-mite allergen and mould growth, the most common type of indoor mould, and correlations between dust-mite and mould and correlations. The study not only identified that the poor health of occupants is closely related to their inadequate living conditions, but also identifies the threshold of indoor micro-climates to maintain indoor allergens at the acceptable level, which can be used as a guideline to maintain or improve indoor health conditions for future housing development or retrofitted old housing. -

Showing all the elements in a maer of 3 days. Cold, wind, rain, frost and the eventual, sunshine. Some waited with sausage in hand for the ute loads of possums, hares, rabbits, wallabies, stoats, ferrets, 4 blind mice. ( not in the count but a rodent all the same) and a couple of turkeys. As they arrived hunt- ers produced their largest possums weighed, had their lots categorised, counted and recorded to produce a total of 298 as well as a trailer of rabbits, wallabies, stoats, and a ferret As well as the challenge there was a lively and hilarious aucon of goods (supplied many local business- es) by Charles Sturt which raised an extra $920 to the amount raised on the day.

Soils of the Bay of Plenty Volume 2 Central Bay of Plenty Environment Bay of Plenty Environmental Publication 2010/11-2 5 Quay Street P O Box 364 Whakatane NEW ZEALAND ISSN: 1175 9372 Working with our communities for a better environment E mahi ngatahi e pai ake ai te taiao Soils of the Bay of Plenty Volume 2: Central Bay of Plenty Environmental Publication 2010/11-2 ISSN: 1175 9372 June 2010 Environment Bay of Plenty 5 Quay Street PO Box 364 Whakatane 3158 NEW ZEALAND Prepared by W. C. Rijkse and D. F. Guinto Preface Soil is a resource, a living, breathing entity that, if treated properly, will maintain itself. It’s our lifeline for survival. When it has finally been depleted, the human population will disappear. Project your imagination into the soil below you next time you go into the garden. Think with compassion of the life that exists there. Think, the drama, the harvesting, and the work that carries on ceaselessly. Think about the meaning of being a steward for the earth. Marjorie Harris, In the Garden (1995) For as long as I can remember I have been intrigued and fascinated by landscapes and soils of New Zealand, in particular of the Bay of Plenty where I spent a good deal of my career mapping soils. A landscape to me is a puzzle, a closed book, and to be able to open that book, to solve the puzzle by finding out what soils are in the landscape and what are the possibilities for good land use, is a joy we scientists call pedology – the science of soils. -
Over the Years
OVER THE YEARS A HISTORY OF THE RURAL COMMUNITY HALLS IN THE ROTORUA DISTRICT FOREWORD Nau mai, Haere mai, There are nine rural community halls in the Rotorua District, at Broadlands, Kaharoa, Mamaku, Ngakuru, Ngongotaha, Okareka, Reporoa, Rerewhakaaitu, and Waikite. Volunteers have driven the development and maintenance of these vital community facilities, which have been the focus for community functions and gatherings for many years. In 2001, Rotorua District Council awarded certificates of appreciation to many of these volunteers for their tireless efforts to sustain the upkeep of their local halls. This booklet was commissioned by the District Council to record the history of Rotorua’s rural halls, for both archival and community interest. Information was compiled in the latter months of 2002 by Marlana Maru, a Year 2 Bachelor of Applied Social Science student from the Waiariki Institute of Technology. RDC Social Research Officer Paul Killerby undertook additional editing and formatting. Marlana and I would like to thank the many local informants whose memories and impressions contributed to this booklet. In particular we would like to thank Barbara Blackburn, Peter Blackburn, Andy Burnett, Mary Burnett, David Fleet, Lyn Fleet, Maxine Greenslade, Triss Hill, Wally Hope, Marie Jepsen, Noeleen Martelli, Verna Martelli, Pam Murray, Jim Nicholson, Norman Reichardt, Rei Reichardt, Arthur Roe, Don Sandilands, and Chris Stevens. We would welcome any further background information on the halls listed in this booklet, which will be recorded and utilised in any further update of the publication.

Archaeology of the Bay of Plenty
Figure 10. Pa at Ruatoki, of Plenty region. This is a plausible date for this region, as can be seen W16/167. from the individual site reviews. It shows that the emergence of a perceived need for security in the region occurred as early there as anywhere else in New Zealand. 9.2.3 Terraces Terrace sites are common in the Bay of Plenty and may or may not be associated with pits or midden. As noted in the section under pits in the field records, terrace sites are more likely to have midden associated with them than are pit sites, which is consistent with terraces having a primarily domestic (housing) function. On excavation, terraces often turn out to be part of wider site complexes. In the Kawerau area, the Tarawera lapilli has filled most pits, so that the sites appear now as if they were simple terrace sites only. O’Keefe (1991) has extracted the number of terraces per site from the recorded sites in the western Bay of Plenty. Single terraces occur most frequently, and the frequency of sites with larger numbers of terraces decreases regularly up to sites with about nine terraces. Thereafter, sites with larger numbers of terraces are more frequent than would be expected. This indicates that sites with ten or more terraces comprise a different population, perhaps the result of construction under different social circumstances than the smaller sites. Undefended occupation sites are represented in the excavation record, most notably the Maruka research project at Kawerau (Lawlor 1981; Walton 1981; Furey 1983). Elsewhere in New Zealand, records indicate that some undefended sites have had long occupancies, and have yielded reasonably numerous artefacts. -

This report is in accordance with Clause 5.1 and 5.2 of Deed of Funding with the Crown, for the Programme. In this report, progress made on individual interventions is reported against the Annual Work Programme commitments. The overarching goal of the Deed of Funding Agreement is to meet community aspirations for water quality in the four Deed Funded lakes: Rotoiti, Rotorua, Ōkāreka and Rotoehu. Each of these lakes has a target water quality set by the community in the Bay of Plenty Regional Water and Land Plan. This target water quality is set by Trophic Level Index (TLI) and this report provides an update on the status of water quality across the Rotorua Te Arawa Lakes, against the targets set for all lakes, Deed and non-Deed funded.
