  • Regional Overview
    Air, land and water in the Wellington region – state and trends Regional overview This summary highlights the key findings from State of the Environment monitoring we carry out of natural resources across the Wellington region. It is drawn from eight technical reports which give the full picture of the health of the Wellington region’s air, land, fresh waters and coast. The reports, published every five years, are based on environmental monitoring and investigations over the past five to ten years (and longer for some resources). The findings are informing the current review of Greater Wellington’s regional plans – the ‘rule books’ for ensuring our region’s natural resources are sustainably managed. These plans are now more than ten years old and we are developing a new integrated plan. Community input to the review is critical – you can find out how to have a say on the back page. How do we measure the health of the region’s air, land and water resources? Regional councils have a legal responsibility under section 35 of the Resource Management Act 1991 to monitor the state of the environment – this essentially means tracking the quality and quantity of the region’s natural resources over time. Greater Wellington does this through long-term monitoring programmes across the region focusing on: ● Air quality at 6 locations ● Soil quality (118 sites under a range of different land uses) and stability ● Rainfall (at 50 sites) and river flows/levels (at 45 sites) ● Groundwater levels (at 146 sites) and quality (at 71 sites) ● Water quality at popular river and beach recreation spots (100 sites) ● River/stream water quality and ecosystem health (at 55 sites) ● The health of selected estuaries and our two harbours Measuring river flow We also carry out short-term investigations where our routine monitoring identifies gaps or potential problems, such as poor air or water quality.

Summary of Findings Population and projections (2018 Census) ● Population: The WCT region is home to around 469,047 people, or 9.8% of New Zealand’s population. It has five territorial authority areas. Two thirds of the people in the WCT region reside in two of these five areas – Wellington City (45%) and Lower Hutt City (22%). Porirua has 12% of the WCT population, followed by 11% in Kapiti Coast District and 9% in Upper Hutt City. ● Population projection: The WCT region’s population will increase by 11% by 2038. Projected population growth in the region is lower than the projected New Zealand average (20%). This means that by 2038, the WCT region is projected to represent a slightly reduced 9.0% of New Zealand’s population. ● Ethnicity: Porirua (22%) and Lower Hutt (10%) have populations with the highest proportion of Pacific Peoples in the WCT region. Both areas also have the populations with the highest proportion of Māori (18% and 16% respectively). Population projections show that Māori and Pacific communities will grow further in proportion in these two areas by 2038.

Some key results to date include better definition and constraint on: 1) faulting in Cook Strait, 2) timing and size of past ruptures on the Wellington, Wairarapa, Wairau, and Ohariu faults, 3) state of locking of the subduction interface, 4) fault interactions throughout the region, in particular rupture statistics of the Wellington-Wairarapa fault-pair, and 5) conditional probability of rupture of the Wellington Fault. Current investigations are focused on characteri- sation of earthquake ground shaking behaviour in Wellington City and the Hutt Valley. 1 INTRODUCTION The It’s Our Fault programme aims to position Wellington to be a more resilient city through a comprehensive study of the likelihood of large Wellington earthquakes, the effects of these earthquakes, and their impacts on humans and the built environment.
