Schedule 14.1 Schedule of Historic Heritage [Rcp/Dp]
Schedule 14.1 Schedule of Historic Heritage [rcp/dp] Introduction The criteria in B5.2.2(1) to (5) have been used to determine the significant historic heritage places in this schedule and will be used to assess any proposed additions to it. The criteria that contribute to the heritage values of scheduled historic heritage in Schedule 14.1 are referenced with the following letters: A: historical B: social C: Mana Whenua D: knowledge E: technology F: physical attributes G: aesthetic H: context. Information relating to Schedule 14.1 Schedule 14.1 includes for each scheduled historic heritage place; • an identification reference (also shown on the Plan maps) • a description of a scheduled place • a verified location and legal description and the following information: Reference to Archaeological Site Recording Schedule 14.1 includes in the place name or description a reference to the site number in the New Zealand Archaeological Association Site Recording Scheme for some places, for example R10_709. Categories of scheduled historic heritage places Schedule 14.1 identifies the category of significance for historic heritage places, namely: (a) outstanding significance well beyond their immediate environs (Category A); or (b) the most significant scheduled historic heritage places scheduled in previous district plans where the total or substantial demolition or destruction was a discretionary or non-complying activity, rather than a prohibited activity (Category A*). This is an interim category until a comprehensive re-evaluation of these places is undertaken and their category status is addressed through a plan change process; or 1 (c) considerable significance to a locality or greater geographic area (Category B). -

Public Transport for the Waitakere Ranges Residents' Survey
Public Transport for the Waitakere Ranges Residents’ Survey - Summary Report Prepared by Buzz Channel and Auckland Transport September 2017 Waitākere Ranges Public Transport Survey – Summary Report Page 1 of 69 Executive summary Auckland Transport and the Waitakere Ranges Local Board have been investigating what Public Transport services may be needed in the Waitakere Ranges area. In March/April 2016, Auckland Transport held a survey for residents of the following areas: French Bay, Henderson Valley, Huia, KareKare, Konini (Kaurilands Rd, Daffodil St, Konini Rd), Laingholm, Oratia, Parau, Paturoa Bay, Piha, South Titirangi, Te Henga (Bethells Beach), Waiatarua, Wood Bay and Woodlands Park. These areas were targeted because they either have no current public transport service, have limited service, or were having services removed when the new West Auckland bus network was implemented in June 2017. Participation In total 839 feedback forms were received. The areas with the highest participation were Huia/Cornwallis/Parau with 116 residents from this area responding, followed by Wood Bay/French Bay/Paturoa Bay/South Titirangi with 108 respondents, and thirdly Piha with 101 respondents. Initial findings In order to determine if there is sufficient demand for any new services, data was grouped by potential routes; i.e. feedback from people who lived in the same area and whose chosen destinations could be accommodated by the same route, was analysed together. In most cases the numbers of people who said they would use each of these potential routes, and how often they said they would use them, was not sufficient to operate a viable bus service. However, two possible scheduled services were identified which could be viable and would warrant further investigation. -
Field Studies of Estuarine Turbidity Under Different Freshwater Flow Conditions, Kaipara River, New Zealand
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Portsmouth University Research Portal (Pure) Field studies of estuarine turbidity under different freshwater flow conditions, Kaipara River, New Zealand Steven B Mitchell1, Malcolm O Green2, Iain T MacDonald2, Mark Pritchard2 1School of Civil Engineering and Surveying, University of Portsmouth, PO1 3AH, UK 2National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA), Hamilton, New Zealand Abstract We present a first interpretation of three days of measurements made in 2013 from the tidal reaches of the Kaipara River (New Zealand) under both low and high freshwater inputs and a neap tidal cycle. During the first day, we occupied two stations that were approximately 6 km apart in a tidal reach that runs for 25 km from the river mouth to the upstream limit of tidal influence. During the second day, longitudinal surveys were conducted over a distance of 6 km centred on the upstream station. The data reveal a turbidity maximum in the form of a high-concentration ‘plug’ of suspended mud that was advected downstream on the ebbing tide past the upper (HB) measurement station and which exchanged sediment with the seabed by settling at low slack water and by resuspension in the early flooding tide. The data suggest that fine sediment is transported landwards and trapped in the upper part of the tidal reach under these low-flow conditions. On the third day of measurements we repeated the experiments of the first day but later in the year, for a much higher freshwater flow. -
