Photo by Christine Liang. 1 Conference Chair Welcome Nau mai haere mai ki o Murihiku - Welcome to Murihiku/Southland! The theme of this year’s annual New Zealand Coastal Society (NZCS) conference is Life on the Edge - Mataora kei runga i te Tapātai. For us in Murihiku this means living with the challenges, changeability, beauty, and diversity that comes from living on the edge of the great Southern Ocean and the challenges and opportunities that this creates. From the striking fiords representing the raised sides of Te Waka o Aoraki in Fiordland, to the pounding surf coast of Te Waewae Bay where Tākitimu’s voyage came to an end; life clings on, however precariously, adapting and thriving. This diversity and tenacity resonates throughout the coastline with a sense of adventure and kaitiakitanga/guardianship in those who reside here. The concept of life on the edge ties past, present and future as we reflect on the roots that have held us strong, but also as we look to the future and how we must adapt to protect, and flourish within, the coastal environment. The 2019 conference in Invercargill aims to celebrate the bountiful islands and diverse stretch of coast that is Southland, the challenges faced in these environments, and the people and species that call this unique part of the world, home. Not only does this theme resonate with the Southland Coast, but it also reflects the challenges and opportunities of life on the coast throughout New Zealand. We have an incredible team of NZCS members and volunteers, who have worked hard over the last few months to put together a programme chock-full of fascinating talks and events. The next three days present an amazing opportunity to meet new people, catch up with friends, learn from each other, and come away with an appreciation of Murihiku’s incredible, uncompromising coastal environment. Our only hope now is that the weather holds… Please come and see either of the Conference Chairs (Matt or Bryony), or any of the Local Organising Committee if you require assistance in any way. We sincerely hope you enjoy your time in Waihōpai/Invercargill, Murihiku/Southland, and visit again soon.

Our Mission To take a leading role in facilitating robust discussion and nationally coordinated interactions to better manage and learn about our coastal and marine environment. Our Vision Sustainable management of New Zealand's coastal and marine environment underpinned by sound science, engineering and policy practice, comprehensive monitoring, involved communities and effective national networks. Our Values The NZCS will promote this vision by being: visionary and innovative; communicative and effective; non-political and impartial; leading edge and strategic. What We Do • Hold an annual conference • Host regional seminars and networking events • Publish the Coastal News magazine • Provide a regular email digest to members with upcoming events, news and job opportunities • Facilitate networking between individuals and professional groups • Support coastal research and study with student scholarships, awards and prizes • Coordinate with universities and other research organisations • Assist with the production of coastal publications (e.g. books, best practice guides, educational material) • Support the development of best practice and informed comment on coastal management issues • Host the biennial Australasian Coasts and Ports conference • Raise public awareness of coastal issues through activity, press releases and publications. 5 NZCS Management Committee The Management Committee is responsible for the policy and administration of the New Zealand Coastal Society.

  • CRT Conference 2020 – Bus Trips
    CRT Conference 2020 – Bus Trips South-eastern Southland fieldtrip 19th March 2020 Welcome and overview of the day. Invercargill to Gorge Road We are travelling on the Southern Scenic Route from Invercargill to the Catlins. Tisbury Old Dairy Factory – up to 88 around Southland We will be driving roughly along the boundary between the Southland Plains and Waituna Ecological Districts. The Southland Plains ED is characterized by a variety of forest on loam soils, while the Waituna District is characterized by extensive blanket bog with swamps and forest. Seaward Forest is located near the eastern edge of Invercargill to the north of our route today. It is the largest remnant of a large forest stand that extended from current day Invercargill to Gorge Road before European settlement and forest clearance. Long our route to Gorge Road we will see several other smaller forest remnants. The extent of Seaward forest is shown in compiled survey plans of Theophilus Heale from 1868. However even the 1865 extent of the forest is much reduced from the original pre-Maori forest extent. Almost all of Southland was originally forest covered with the exception of peat bogs, other valley floor wetlands, braided river beds and the occasional frost hollows. The land use has changed in this area over the previous 20 years with greater intensification and also with an increase in dairy farming. Surrounding features Takitimus Mtns – Inland (to the left) in the distance (slightly behind us) – This mountain range is one of the most iconic mountains in Southland – they are visible from much of Southland.

  • FROM POTHOLES to POLICY: How Invercargill City Council Informs Itself Of, and Has Regard To, the Views of All of Its Communities
    FROM POTHOLES TO POLICY: How Invercargill City Council informs itself of, and has regard to, the views of all of its communities Janette Malcolm School of Geography, E nvironment and Earth Sciences, Victoria University of Wellington Wellington, ew Zealand Submitted in partial fulfilment of the Master of D evelopment Studies D egree JULY 2008 Abstract In the 1990s, governments in the Western world were seeking solutions to the economic and social dysfunction resulting from a decade of pure neo-liberal policies. Increased inequalities in the distribution of wealth, the promotion of individualism at the expense of community and citizens feeling alienated from government had become critical problems, nowhere more so than in New Zealand. A solution that has been adopted is to reconnect government at all levels with citizens and the civic sector. The good governance agenda proposed increased transparency and accountability of government to citizens, and a new role for citizens as participants and partners. It became the foundation for a fundamental reform of local government in New Zealand, resulting in the Local Government Act 2002. However, the acquisition of a right to participate does not necessarily lead to knowledge of that right and the capacity to exercise it on the part of citizens: nor the willingness to allow it on the part of government. There are also more general questions about the exercise of power, about representation and about whose voices are heard. This thesis, through a case study of Invercargill City Council, a local government authority in Southland, New Zealand, examines these issues relating to citizen participation and the extent to which the Council has been able to create an environment and processes that enable all of its communities to participate.

  • Potential Impacts of Vehicle Traffic on Recruitment of Toheroa (Paphies Ventricosa) on Oreti Beach, Southland, New Zealand
    Impact of vehicles on recruitment of toheroa on Oreti Beach, Southland, New Zealand A report to Te Ao Mārama, Environment Southland, Invercargill City Council and Department of Conservation Ecosystems Consultants Report Number 2014/02 December 2014 Suggested citation for this report: Moller JA, Garden C, Moller SI, Beentjes M, Skerrett M, Scott D, Stirling FF, Moller JS, Moller H (2014).

Michael Skerrett: Te Ao Mārama, PO Box 7017, Invercargill. ii Executive Summary The Oreti Beach population of toheroa are of national conservation importance because of their outlying and limited distribution, long-term declines of both northern and southern populations, general degradation of marine ecosystem health, and the importance of toheroa as a customary food of Māori. Crushing of juveniles by vehicle traffic has been mooted as a potential threat to toheroa recruitment, but reliable scientific measures of its putative importance are lacking.

  • Section 2.6 Areas of Significant Indigenous Vegetation and Significant Habitats of Indigenous Fauna Is Also Relevant to Wetlands
    SECTION TWO SIGNIFICANT RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ISSUES 2.1 INTRODUCTION 2.1.1 The process of preparing this Plan commenced with a wide-ranging programme of consultation throughout the community. Groups with a perceived community of interest were also called together to identify what they saw as fields of enquiry that should be addressed. Consultation was held with the Ministry for the Environment, the Department of Conservation, the Southland Regional Council, the Southland District Council, takata whenua (through representatives of the four runaka), and such groups as the Southland Fish and Game Council, the New Zealand Historic Places Trust, the Southland Conservation Board, Invercargill Airport Ltd, South Port, New Zealand Aluminium Smelters, New Zealand Transport Agency, the Ministry of Forestry, the Ministry of Health, and representatives from other organisations such as Federated Farmers. 2.1.2 From this consultative process, significant issues emerged and were explored by Council’s District Plan Group. In general these issues were identified by more than one group, or were particularly significant to a group. The Plan Group selected from these issues those which could be addressed in the context of a plan prepared under the Resource Management Act. A process of “sieving” took place to identify and isolate the significant Resource Management issues to be addressed in the Plan. 2.1.3 For the purposes of this Plan a resource management issue is identified as significant when: (A) It is within the ambit of the Resource Management Act 1991 (B) It has been expressed by the community as being of importance (C) It would be possible for Council to modify the outcome through intervention 2.1.4 People hold values for resources or attributes.
