THE KEY HAZARDS IN SHOTOVER COUNTRY, LAKE HAYES ESTATE & LAKE HAYES Earthquake // Major Storms // Snowstorms Flooding // Wildfire // Accident Earthquake New Zealand lies on the boundary of the Pacific and Australian tectonic plates. Most earthquakes occur at faults, which are breaks extending deep within the earth, caused by movements of these plates. There are thousands of earthquakes in New Zealand every year, but most of them are not felt because they are either small, or very deep within the earth. Each year there are about 150 – 200 quakes that are big enough to be felt. A large, damaging earthquake could occur at any time, and can be followed by aftershocks that continue for days, weeks or months. www.geonet.org.nz Major storms / Snowstorms Major storms affect wide areas and can be accompanied by strong winds, heavy rain, thunder, lightning, tornadoes and snow.

  • Lake County Agricultural & Pastoral Society
    Lake County Agricultural & Pastoral Society From the President Welcome to the 102nd Lake Hayes A&P Show! Our small committee of volunteers have been working hard to create this great family day out. You are invited to come and enjoy the trade displays and stalls, family entertainment and competitions. Catching up with all those locals who have been attending the show for years, or meeting those who are attending for the first time. The Lake Hayes A & P Show is not big compared to other Shows, our grounds are sandwiched between a lake and a state highway, we have the most picturesque site in the country. We aim to provide locals and visitors with a traditional rural day out with a modern and creative flair. In recent years, we have certainly maintained our popularity; trade space is booked in, up to one year in advance, and there’s a waiting list. We make a conscious decision to cater for the traditional A&P enthusiast, offering equestrian competitions, sheep and wool classes, shearing competitions and displays, home industry sections, but in recent years have moulded our schedule to incorporate events for townsfolk and rural lifestyle block families. This year we have added in a section for Miniature Horses – one that is sure to be a crowd pleaser, plus the Clydesdales are back. So, there actually is ‘something for everyone’ at the Lake Hayes A & P Show! A huge thank you goes out to our loyal members and sponsors, who provide the financial backing so that we can run this event year and after year, and thank you also to the competitors (many of whom travel from afar), trade site vendors, spectators and volunteers.

  • Lessons Learnt Preparing a 30 Year Infrastructure Strategy for the Queenstown-Lakes District
    A CASE STUDY: LESSONS LEARNT PREPARING A 30 YEAR INFRASTRUCTURE STRATEGY FOR THE QUEENSTOWN-LAKES DISTRICT Lead Author: Polly Lambert Policy, Standards & Assets Planner, Queenstown Lakes District Council Queenstown Co-Author: Dr Deborah Lind Infrastructure Advisor, Rationale Ltd Arrowtown Abstract The Local Government Act 2002 Amendment Act 2014 became law on 8 August 2014, requiring councils to prepare an infrastructure strategy for at least a 30 year period, and to incorporate this into their long-term plans from 2015. The Queenstown Lakes District is a recognised tourism destination that supports economic growth across the southern part of the South Island of New Zealand and contributes significantly to the ‘NZ Inc.’ global brand. As such, the district is attractive to local and international investment in housing, services and visitor related activities. The current resident population of 29,000 supports the infrastructure services for a peak day population of 100,000 people. Combined with the fact that the District is one of the highest future growth areas in the country, this placed increased pressure on the three waters and transport services in terms of capacity and service delivery. This paper will share the approach, challenges and outcomes of preparing a 30 year infrastructure strategy for the Queenstown Lakes District and the lessons learnt to inform, and improve on, future infrastructure planning. Key Words (wiki’s) 30 Year Infrastructure Strategy, LGA Section 101, Asset Management, Forward Planning, Long Term Plan, Evidence Based Decision Making adventure, exploration, creativity or relaxation.

  • Otago Conservancy
    A Directory of Wetlands in New Zealand OTAGO CONSERVANCY Sutton Salt Lake (67) Location: 45o34'S, 170o05'E. 2.7 km from Sutton and 8 km from Middlemarch, Straith-Tari area, Otago Region, South Island. Area: 3.7 ha. Altitude: 250 m. Overview: Sutton Salt Lake is a valuable example of an inland or athalassic saline lake, with a considerable variety of saline habitats around its margin and in adjacent slightly saline boggy depressions. The lake is situated in one of the few areas in New Zealand where conditions favour saline lakes (i.e. where precipitation is lower than evaporation). An endemic aquatic animal, Ephydrella novaezealandiae, is present, and there is an interesting pattern of vegetation zonation. Physical features: Sutton Salt Lake is a natural, inland or athalassic saline lake with an average depth of 30 cm and a salinity of 15%. The lake has no known inflow or outflow. The soils are saline and alkaline at the lake margin (sodium-saturated clays), and surrounded by yellow-grey earths and dry subdygrous Matarae. The parent material is loess. Shallow boggy depressions exist near the lake, and there is a narrow fringe of salt tolerant vegetation at the lake margin. Algal communities are present, and often submerged by lake water. The average annual rainfall is about 480 mm, while annual evaporation is about 710 mm. Ecological features: Sutton Salt Lake is one of only five examples of inland saline habitats of botanical value in Central Otago. This is the only area in New Zealand which is suitable for the existence of this habitat, since in general rainfall is high, evaporation is low, and endorheic drainage systems are absent.

  • Ah Lums Store Middlesex Street, Arrowtown's Chinatown, ARROWTOWN
    Ah Lums Store Middlesex Street, Arrowtown's Chinatown, ARROWTOWN http://www.historic.org.nz/Register/ListingDetail.asp?RID=4366&sm= Register Number:4366 Registration Type: Historic Place - Category I Region:Otago Region Date Registered:26/11/87 City/District Council: Queenstown-Lakes District Council Brief History: The building now known as Ah Lum’s store is one of the few buildings constructed by nineteenth-century Chinese goldminers in Otago that still stands. Chinese settlement in New Zealand began around 1865. Although those administering most regions in New Zealand actively discouraged Chinese miners from moving to New Zealand, the Otago Provincial Council invited Chinese working in Australia to come to the region. Despite the official encouragement, Chinese miners in Otago, as in all other regions, frequently met with hostility from other miners as well as from bureaucrats. The heyday of Chinese mining was during the 1870s and 1880s, when many Chinese became involved in reworking gold-bearing areas that had been deserted by European miners. The Chinese settlement at Arrowtown was about 200 metres away from the main street of Arrowtown. Despite this, the settlement and its occupants was quite socially separate from the rest of the town. By 1885 the Arrowtown settlement had grown to consist of about ten huts, made of stone or mud, a social hall and at least two stores. There was also an extensive garden area. The community was almost definitely made up entirely of men. There were a number of similar Chinese settlements adjacent to other Central Otago goldfield towns, but today Arrowtown’s is the best preserved.
