Taputeranga Marine Reserve Taputeranga Marine Reserve Marine Reserve Application Application by the South Coast Marine Reserve Coalition and Royal Forest and Bird Protection Society of New Zealand (Inc.) October 2000 ISBN 0-9597851-7-5 Preface Living in Wellington means living with the sea. Most Wellingtonians live within one or two kilometres of a rugged coastline – and the changing moods of Cook Strait inspire us and shape our lifestyles. Within our magnificent harbour and around the bays of the south coast, Wellington residents make many demands on our precious marine areas. These rich, but once richer, coastal and offshore habitats face a host of stresses from a growing and dynamic city. These include poaching, local depletion of fish, and declining quality of habitats. On the south coast, from the Sinclair Head seal colony to Fort Dorset, lies an area of beauty and unique ecological importance. The rugged headlands, rocky shores, and steep gravel and sand beaches provide a range of habitats for many plants and animals. Over this varied topography wash three different currents, bringing together a mixture of species from warm and cold waters. The high energy and agitation of the waters of Cook Strait completes this special ecological and geographic picture. This document supports an application for a marine reserve on part of the south coast. Our consultations have shown there to be widespread community support for a marine reserve in the area. Extensive and diverse scientific research has established a baseline of knowledge on which future research programmes can be based. We envisage the proposed marine reserve becoming the cornerstone of scientific, educational and management programmes aimed at conserving and enhancing our coast – a jewel in Wellington’s crown.

    Annexure 1: Construction and Operational Noise Nigel Lloyd WELLINGTON AIRPORT RUNWAY EXTENSION Peer Review of Noise Reports Introduction 1 My full name is Nigel Robert Lloyd, and I am an acoustical consultant. 2 I have been engaged by the Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) and Wellington City Council (WCC) to peer review the various technical reports submitted with the application for the extension of the runway at Wellington International Airport (The Airport), and to consider the issues they raise from the perspective of noise (and vibration). Qualifications and Experience 3 I am an acoustical consultant with Acousafe Consulting & Engineering Limited, a position I have held since 1985. I have a degree in mechanical engineering gained at the University of Wales, University College Cardiff in 1976. 4 Prior to my current position, I was employed by the Industrial Acoustics Company in the UK as an acoustical consultant between 1977 and 1980 and then spent five years as the Department of Labour noise control engineer in New Zealand, advising the safety inspectorates on occupational noise management and control. I have a total of 39 years’ experience as a noise control engineer/acoustical consultant. 5 I advised the local residents association (RANAG) on the Wellington International Airport District Plan appeal in 1997 and have advised Manukau City Council on Auckland Airport for the Operative Plan, and Palmerston North City Council and Rotorua District Council on their airport plan provisions respectively. 6 In 2011, I advised the Ministry of Education during the appeals on the Queenstown District Plan Change for the Queenstown Airport. 7 In 2004, I advised Corrigan Commercial Ltd on an appeal by Wellington International Airport Ltd against the establishment of an apartment building in the Miramar Suburban Centre (ENV 2602314_3 1 W105/04).

Believes there are sufficient travellers to make the project viable. Supports the runway extension because it would have economic benefits such as more international students, more diplomatic visits, more film work, and more IT jobs. 2 Kleist, David Oppose Not Specified Opposes the extension due to the economic cost as WCC ratepayers may have to fund $250m of the project compared to Infratil's $50m. Notes that no airlines have so far stated an interest in long haul flights to Wellington. Also concerned that the design of the extension will pose a danger to Cobham Drive traffic and damage electricity and gas utilities in the event of a plane crash. 3 Roberts, Dennis Support Yes Supports the extension because of the economic benefits. Sees an opportunity for produce exports to Asia with the future four lane motorway connecting the Horowhenua with Wellington. 4 Urquhart-Hay, Simon James Support No Supports the extension as believes it will be economically beneficial to the Wellington region. 5 Campion, Roy Support No Supports the extension as believes Wellington needs to swiftly install necessary infrastructure to progress economically and socially.

  • South Coast Management Plan 2002 Name: Dog Pound, Moa Point Site Reference: A17 Road This Is a Specific Use That Is Not Anticipated to Change in the Near Future
    5 MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK 5.1 AN AREA-BASED APPROACH For management purposes, each part of the coast has been described on the basis of its primary characteristics. While the areas are joined together by the coastal character that they all share, distinguishing features have been used to identify distinct areas. The combination of the urban edge, topography such as coastal escarpments, and the inherent character of the different parts of the coast define each area’s nature. The uses that occur in each area assist in their definition, but are more a reflection of their physical attributes (including location in relation to urban areas). By identifying the characteristics of each area, the application of the management policies (section 6) can then be appropriately focused. Each area will be managed in light of its identified character described below. Specific elements have also been described if these are an important aspect of a site’s use. Name: Breaker Bay Site Reference: A1 and Breaker Bay Road Breaker Bay is an urban coastal edge, however the seaward side of the road is generally natural in character. The existing boatshed structures add to the coastal character of the immediate area. Uses include recreation and community landscape projects. Name: Breaker Bay Escarpments Site Reference: A2, A3, A4, A5 This area is characterised by its natural landscape. Restoration work is appropriate, and track access (Eastern Walkway) and signage are key elements of the use of these sites. Name: Rangitatau Reserve Site Reference: A6, A7, A8, A9, A10, A14, A15, A16 This area is also known in part as Ataturk Park.

  • Identification of Wellington Regional Surfbreaks
    Identification of Wellington Regional Surfbreaks Report prepared for: Greater Wellington Regional Council Prepared by: Michael Gunson, Shane Orchard & Peter Windsor October 2014 Identification of Wellington Regional Surfbreaks Report prepared for: Greater Wellington Regional Council Prepared by: Michael Gunson, Shane Orchard & Peter Windsor October 2014 Cover photo: Outside Propellers, Palmer Head - Breaker Bay August 2011. Courtesy Jeremy http://surf.co.nz/mobi/gallery/shot-day-aug-2011/13875/ Preface In my work as a founding committee member of the Surfbreak Protection Society Inc, a quote from previous crown minister, Dr Marilyn Waring to the SOLGM convention in 2001 keeps coming to mind; “...Someone who has lived on the bank of the river as a subsistence fisherman, even when he or she is illiterate, is the expert on fish at that point in the river. He will always know (sic) more than the departmental scientist from Bangkok and the World Bank consultant from Cornell.” I am in effect, that fisherman, I am an expert on many surfbreaks in the Wellington region, but not all. Every surfer will have their own favourite surfbreak or surfbreaks, and will be the expert surfer at that point on the coast. While I have the ability to identify with a good deal of accuracy the 64 surfbreak and surfbreak areas in the Wellington Region as recognised in the NZ Wavetrack Guide, the greatest challenge to me has been to identify maximum surfing ride length in optimum surfing conditions. That is partly why the surfbreaks themselves in this report are contained within a larger polygon area. I go into this in greater detail in the methodology section.
