  • Emergency Management, Opuha Dam Collapse, Waitangi Day 1997
    Emergency management, Opuha Dam collapse, Waitangi Day 1997 Philip Lees1 and David Thomson2 The partially completed Opuha Dam near Fairlie in South Canterbury failed at about 1.00 am on 6 February 1997, releasing about 13 million cubic metres of water into the Opuha Riverbed. The developing Civil Defence emergency is described, showing how rapidly a situation could change to one of high hazard. This experience has reinforced views that: effective emergency management plans must be in place for large dams, both during and after construction; emergency procedures need to be activated early and when there are several hours of daylight left; dam-site staff must give an honest appraisal of a potential emergency situation, and in turn must provide accurate information to emergency management organisations. Recommendations are given for the scope of emergency management plans for the now-completed Opuha Dam and for other dams during their construction. Keywords: Opuha Dam, dam breach, river capacity, volume of water, impounded. Introduction Waitangi Day, 6 February, 1997 is a day that will remain on the minds of flood warning staff of Environment Canterbury (ECan) probably for the rest of their lives. The partially completed Opuha Dam near Fairlie in South Canterbury failed at about 1.00 am that morning, releasing about 13 million cubic metres of water into the Opuha Riverbed (Figure 1). Fortunately no lives were lost although in the days that followed there were stories of a number of very close escapes: campers scrambling through riverside berm areas with trees crashing around them and farmers in the same situation trying to shift stock.

  • Title: Timaru's District Wide Sewer Strategy Author
    Title: Timaru’s District Wide Sewer Strategy Author: Ashley Harper, Timaru District Council Abstract: Timaru’s District Wide Sewer Strategy Key Words: Wastewater Strategy, Working Party, Community, Oxidation Ponds, Wetlands, Trunk Sewers, Tunnels Introduction The Timaru District has four main urban areas, namely Timaru, and the inland towns of Geraldine, Pleasant Point and Temuka, with each of these areas having a traditional piped sewer network. The total population served within these urban areas is 40,000. #:872456 Since 1987 Timaru’s wastewater had been treated via a 0.5 milliscreening plant and associated ocean outfall, while each of the three inland towns utilised oxidation ponds and river discharge as the wastewater treatment and disposal process. In 1996 the Timaru District Council initiated a review of the respective wastewater treatment and disposal strategies, primarily because of emerging environmental and regulatory issues. Council supported a community based approach to identifying a preferred strategy, noting that the strategy needed to be robust and viable and to recognise the unique nature of the Timaru District’s effluent. Compliance with proposed environmental standards was a non negotiable requirement. Wastewater Working Party The community based approach involved the appointment of an experienced facilitator (Gay Pavelka) and the formation of a Wastewater Working Party in 1997. Membership of the working party was made up of representatives of the following organisations: Timaru District Council Community Boards
