Present Donna Field (Chair), Chris Allen, Ben Curry, Craig Fowles, Arapata Reuben, Sheryl Stivens and Stuart Wilson. In attendance Environment Canterbury: Lesley Woudberg (Facilitator), Don Rule, Tania Harris, Christina Rob b. Ash burton District Council: Business Support Officer (minutes). Approximately 14 members of the public attended the meeting. 1 Welcome and Karakia Mr Arapata Reuben opened the meeting with a karakia. 2 Apologies David Caygill, Gordon Guthrie, Karl Russell, Jackie Wright. Sustained 3 Extraordinary Business Nil. 4 Registeroflnterests Circulated in agenda and updated. 5 Confirmation of Minutes Amendment- Item 7 Correspondence: "The committee was disappointed that the correspondence from Mr Mackenzie personally targeted the Chair for doing herjob. It was considered that the tone of this correspondence was inappropriate and should not be condoned'~ That the minutes of the Ashburton Water Management Zone Committee meeting held on Tuesday 24 February 2015, subject to amendment, be confirmed. Fowles/Stivens . Carried The Chair with the agreement of the committee proposed that the deputation be taken after Item 8. 6 Deputations ( 12.12pm) Mr Matt Bubb (Aqualinc) and Mr Jock Ross attended the meeting to discuss a proposal to capture and store rainfall run-off on Mr Ross's Lagmhor property following heavy rainfall/ storm events. This water would then be used to irrigate an area of land up to approx. 60 ha. The current wording of the pLWRP (Section 13) prevents this activity, despite the fact that storing water during flood type events on a small scale would appear to Mr Ross, to be a sensible use of the resource. Mr Ross is seeking the support from the Ash burton Zone Committee for the proposal. Mr Ross advised that he has approximately 60 hectares of land that goes from too wet to too dry. When very wet, he has to drain water from the farm, diverting it into Lagmhor Creek, and believes it would be beneficial to store this flood water for use during the dry season. Mr Bubb advised that the farm is located within the Ashburton River catchment and the proposal is to capture stormwater from the property before it reaches Lagmhor Creek and the Ashburton River. Lagmhor Creek is a flood risk and this proposal would also help to mitigate this risk in high flow times. 3 CWMSAshburton Zone Committee 28 April2015 Agenda There is some degree of urgency with this proposal as the proposed Land and Water Regional Plan is about to become operative. Once operative, an application of this type would become a prohibited activity. Gordon Guthrie attended the meeting at 12:28pm. Following lengthy discussion the Chair advised that the Zone Committee was unable to make a consensus decision of support for this proposal at this time. Several members expressed the need for further information. It was noted that Mr Ross was able to submit a consent application to Environment Canterbury at any time, with or without the support of the Zone Committee. The consenting process would ensure the application was assessed thoroughly for effects. 7 Correspondence (11:26am) The Chair tabled a letter from Dame Margaret Bazley, Chairperson of Environment Canterbury, Dame Margaret thanked members ofthe Hinds Drains Working Party and the Ash burton Zone Committee for the work undertaken to advance the Canterbury Water Management Strategy in the Hinds drains area. The Chair also tabled correspondence from the Chair of the Ash burton Biodiversity Group (Cr Alan Totty) with regard to sediment levels in the Ash burton Lakes which are impacting the Maori Lakes and south branch of the Ashburton River. Cr Totty invited the Zone Committee to meet with the Ashburton Biodiversity Group to discuss the issues. A requirement of the Zone Committee is to liaise with the Ash burton Biodiversity Group. The Chai r will contact Cr Totty to arrange a workshop for discussion. That the correspondence be received. Curry/Reuben Carried 8 DairyNZ Update Mr James Ryan and Shirley Hayward (DairyNZ) and Michael Hyde (Fonterra) attended the meeting to present updates to the Ash burton Zone Committee. Mr Ryan advised that the dairy sector is increasingly stepping up in the environmental space and recognises there are significant challenges ahead. DairyNZ is predominantly a research group and has a joint work programme with ECan. The industry wants to see growth but do not want to see existing farmers make reductions in order to allow further land use changes. Mr Ryan will arrange a meeting to discuss zone specific initiatives if members were interested. Mike Hyde presented an overview of Supply Fonterra programmes, initiatives to encourage change on farms. Ongoing changes to programmes are expected as Fonterra's Water Accord is implemented and more targets are to be met. Specifically in the Ashburton Zone 99.73% of Fonterra Defined Waterways are permanently stock excluded. The deputation was taken at 12:12pm. 9 Zone Focused ECan Staff Teams Mr Don Rule, Director Consents and Planning, attended the meeting to discuss the memorandum from Environment Canterbury's Chief Executive, Mr Bill Bayfield. A pilot zone team will be set up in Hurunui­ Waiau Zone in March 2015 with other teams being established between July and December 2015. The team will work directly with the Zone Committee, to ensure that their priorities are being addressed and the outcomes are achieved. 10 Consents Update- River Openings The closing date for submissions should read 14 April2015. 4 CWMS Ash burton Zone Committee 28 April 2015 Agenda 11 General Updates Ben Curry advised that the power station at Highbank is out of operation due to maintenance requirements. The RDR water is currently bypassing the station via the north and south branches ofthe Ash burton river. HDWP have asked if they can put water in the Hinds River. This is being considered by Arowhenua. • Regional Committee The Regional Committee Meeting is to follow this meeting

  • PRINCIPAL's PIECE LAST NEWSLETTER for 2012 UPCOMING EVENTS TERM DATES for 2013 Start of Year 2013
    PRINCIPAL’S PIECE LAST NEWSLETTER FOR 2012 Dear Parents and Caregivers Last Wednesday, 21 November Mrs Fiona Jessep, Agriculture teacher, Mrs Carol Wilson the Chair of the Board of Trustees and myself attended an information day called “Principals in2 the Field”. This was a day organised by our own Young Farmers showcasing some of the career opportunities in the Agriculture industry. About 40 people attended from secondary schools in the Canterbury region. The day started at Lincoln University then we went to the Sheep Breeding Centre where we were given a presentation normally given to Year 12 Agriculture students. While I could select the best potential for meat producing ewes from a small flock by just looking at them, I struggled to choose the best breeding line by the same method. However, with good data and an explanation of how to use it these both became easier tasks. The explanation and demonstration of AI (artificial insemination) was also interesting. Our next stop was the SYNLAIT Plant. While we were not able to access inside (as there were too many of us) the representatives from the plant gave us a detailed explanation of the business and the way they work towards sustainable environmental practices. Junior Prizegivings 2012 Our third visit was to 5 Star Beef Lot at Wakanui where we were shown around the farm and Yr 9/10 11.00am then Sir Graeme Harrison, Chairman of ANZCO and past pupil of the College addressed us on the importance of the Primary Industries to New Zealand, the future potential in the industry and Yr 7/8 1.30pm the need for our brightest young minds to see the potential for successful careers in this field.
