ISBN 978-0-478-37648-7 Published October 2012 Prepared by Jens Rekker, Resource Science Unit Sea Level Effects Modelling for South Dunedin Aquifer i Overview Background South Dunedin urban area, which is mainly residential, is generally low lying reclaimed land, having once been coastal dunes and marshes. The underlying area has a groundwater system (or coastal aquifer) with a water table very close to the surface. The water table is closely tied to the surrounding sea level at both the ocean and harbour margins. The Otago Regional Council has been monitoring groundwater levels at three bores since 2009; results from which indicate that water table height is under the direct influence of climate and mean sea level, plus the drainage provided by the area’s storm and wastewater drains. The low lying land and already high water table makes the area vulnerable to any future rises in sea level. If the water table did rise any further it would create further pressure on the current drainage system and also increase the chances of surface ponding. Groundwater modeling was used in this investigation to assess the effects of a range of different sea level rise scenarios. What this study found The water table height is strongly influenced by the mean water level in the adjoining ocean and harbour. The close association is highlighted by areas of the aquifer within 300m of the coast showing the effect of the tides by fluctuating water table levels. The sea level has risen slightly over the past 150 years (up to 0.2m), and the water table has probably responded in an equivalent fashion. Further rises in Mean Sea Level are highly likely to force further equivalent rises in the water table. Groundwater modeling of this effect suggests that even the mildest continuation of the current rise of sea level rise would create ponding in some parts of the South Dunedin urban area. Water table levels are also in part controlled by the fortuitous draining through the stormwater and wastewater pipe network, which allows surrounding groundwater to enter through cracks or breaks in the system. What should be done next? Groundwater levels will continue to be monitored to assess any changes to water table levels. The network of bores will also be extended to further improve the accuracy of the model predictions. The information from this report can be used for future planning requirements. ii Sea Level Effects Modelling for South Dunedin Aquifer Technical Summary The South Dunedin urban area is low-lying having been reclaimed from coastal dunes, marshes and intertidal deposits since European settlement. The water table lies close to the surface, typically 0.3 m to 0.7 m under the urban area. A coastal aquifer comprising mostly sands, estuarine muds and alluvial gravels makes up the basin infilling between the Dunedin mainland and the Otago Peninsula. The coastal aquifer is exposed to the sea at the Harbour Basin and Ocean Beach (St Kilda Beach, Middle Beach and St Clair Beach). Recent drilling investigations have characterised a sandy aquifer in hydraulic communication with the sea, including tidal fluctuations of the water table in proximity to the ocean. It is inferred that any long-term rise in the mean level of the sea would translate into a rise in the water table. Thus, groundwater modelling was used in this investigation to assess the magnitude of sea level rise effects on South Dunedin from groundwater causes. Scenarios or projections of future sea level rise encompassing the 21st Century were used in formulation model scenarios. The following bullet points outline the results of computer modelling: • Groundwater computer modelling suggests that even the mildest continuation of the measured rate of sea level rise would manifest in groundwater ponding of a few tens of centimetres in the parts of the South Dunedin urban area. • Based on the LiDAR land surface data and the groundwater model-derived water table surface, the greater potential for groundwater ponding at the surface is within the Bayview Road – Hargest Crescent – Forbury Park area.

This publication may be reproduced in whole or in part provided the source is fully and clearly acknowledged. ISBN 1-877265-67-5 Published August 2008 Water of Leith, Kaikorai, Waitati and Carey’s Creek i Foreword To help protect water quality, the Otago Regional Council (ORC) carries out long- term water quality monitoring as part of a State of the Environment programme. To supplement this information, targeted and detailed short-term monitoring programmes are also implemented in some catchments. This report provides the results from more detailed investigations carried out in three catchments: Water of Leith Kaikorai Stream Waitati River and Carey’s Creek The Water of Leith and Kaikorai Stream are both located in Dunedin and drain typical residential and industrial areas. Both watercourses have many stormwater outfalls which compromise water quality. The Waitati River and Carey’s Creek have little development in their catchments. The upper catchments are forested while lower in the catchment, pasture dominates. Water quality is generally very good. This report forms a baseline study from which ORC and local community programmes can work together to address various issues in the catchments. It is hoped that these catchment programmes will promote environmentally sound practices which will sustain and improve water quality.

  • Environmental Status of the Near Shore Coastal Environment
    Environmental Status of The Near Shore Coastal Environment April 2005 Environmental Status of The Near Shore Coastal Environment ISBN 1-877265-14-4 April 2005 Environmental Status of The Near Shore Coastal Environment i Executive Summary This report presents a comprehensive review of the environmental status of Otago’s near shore coastal environment. There is no current Otago Regional Council (ORC) coastal monitoring programme and therefore the ORC relies on resource consent monitoring to fulfil it’s responsibilities under the Resource Management Act (1991), the Regional Policy Statement and the Regional Plan: Coast. The only intensive coastal monitoring undertaken is in the vicinity of Dunedin and is due to the discharge of Green Island and Tahuna WWTP effluent, otherwise coastal monitoring of Otago’s coastal marine area (CMA) is limited both temporally and spatially. A review of coastal monitoring undertaken since the late 1990’s is presented with particular regard to water quality, the effects of discharges and possible effects on recreational and food gathering areas. Four main areas are covered: • Water quality monitoring undertaken as a requirement of resource consents. • Other monitoring as required by resource consents such as sediment monitoring programmes, ecological programmes, algal monitoring programmes or monitoring for the extent of mussel contamination. • ORC State of Environment monitoring of the major rivers that discharge into the Otago CMA. • A review of published research conducted in Otago’s CMA over the past 10 years.
