Archaeological Assessment of Effects: Awanui Flood Scheme Project Archaeological Assessment of Effects: Awanui Flood Scheme Project 30 November 2019 Commissioned by: Northland Regional Council Private Bag 9021 Whangarei Mail Centre Whangarei 0148 Prepared By: Geometria Ltd. PO Box 68-653 Newton Auckland 1145 AAE: Awanui Flood Scheme Geometria 2019 ii AAE: Awanui Flood Scheme Executive Summary Planned works for the 2019/20 season for the Awanui Flood Scheme will be undertaken at three sites, one of which (Sports Hub) has a recorded archaeological site on it and will require an authority from Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga prior to works commencing. The other two sites (Juken and Allen Bell Park) have been assessed as having very low archaeological potential. Therefore, it is recommended that works can proceed on these two sites prior to the issuing of an authority with the initial topsoil stripping monitored by an archaeologist and kaitiaki with the subsequent earthworks monitored by a kaitiaki. However, if archaeological deposits are discovered during earthworks then work must halt until the authority is issued and active - the authority is being sought for all three sites.

  • Natural Areas of Aupouri Ecological District
    5. Summary and conclusions The Protected Natural Areas network in the Aupouri Ecological District is summarised in Table 1. Including the area of the three harbours, approximately 26.5% of the natural areas of the Aupouri Ecological District are formally protected, which is equivalent to about 9% of the total area of the Ecological District. Excluding the three harbours, approximately 48% of the natural areas of the Aupouri Ecological District are formally protected, which is equivalent to about 10.7% of the total area of the Ecological District. Protected areas are made up primarily of Te Paki Dunes, Te Arai dunelands, East Beach, Kaimaumau, Lake Ohia, and Tokerau Beach. A list of ecological units recorded in the Aupouri Ecological District and their current protection status is set out in Table 2 (page 300), and a summary of the site evaluations is given in Table 3 (page 328).

  • Aupouri Aquifer Groundwater Model Final
    Aupouri Aquifer Review Report 1056-1-R1 Scott Wilson, Ali Shokri Lincoln Agritech Ltd April 2015 Registered company office: Lincoln Agritech Limited Engineering Drive, Lincoln University Lincoln 7640 Christchurch New Zealand PO Box 69133 Ph: +64 3 325 3700 Fax: +64 3 325 3725 Document Acceptance: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report summarises and analyses the available hydrological and geological data for the Aupouri Aquifer. A conceptual model is proposed which is based on the available information, and this understanding forms the framework for a numerical model to quantify aquifer flow balances. The Aupouri Aquifer covers a land area of 75,322 hectares, and extends along the whole length of Ninety Mile Beach on the west coast, and from Kokota (The Sandspit) to Waimanoni on the east coast. It also includes the low- lying land between Waimanoni and Ahipara. The aquifer is for the most part a deep sandy coastal system that has formed as a tombolo between islands of basement rock. Although it is a sandy aquifer, it also contains a significant proportion of clay and peat deposits that have formed between sand dunes. In particular, there is an extensive horizon of low permeability at approximately sea level, which acts as a confining layer to the deeper sediments. Most boreholes tap the more permeable shell-rich marine sands found at the base of the aquifer, although almost all of the water for these bores is provided by leakage from the overlying sands during pumping. The shallow unconfined part of the aquifer is quite dynamic, and most of the rainfall recharge is routed towards the sea within this layer.
