  • COCKLES (COC 3) Otago Peninsula (Austrovenus Stutchburyi) Tuaki
    COCKLES (COC 3) COCKLES (COC 3) Otago Peninsula (Austrovenus stutchburyi) Tuaki Waitati Inlet Purakunui Otago Harbour Papanui Inlet 1. FISHERY SUMMARY COC 3 was introduced into the Quota Management System in October 2002 with a TAC of 1500 t; comprising of a customary allowance of 10 t, a recreational allowance of 10 t, an allowance for other fishing related mortality of 10 t, and a TACC of 1470 t. Historical catch limits can be seen in Table 1. 1.1 Commercial fisheries Cockles are present at various locations around the Otago Peninsula but are only commercially fished from Papanui Inlet, Waitati Inlet, and Otago Harbour (under a current special permit). Commercial fishing in Papanui and Waitati Inlets began in 1983. A limit of 104 t was in effect for Papanui and Waitati Inlets combined from 1986–87 until 1991–92. From 1992–93 to 1998–99, the catch limits were 90 t for Papanui Inlet and 252 t for Waitati Inlet. In April 2000, the catch limits were increased to 427 t for Papanui Inlet and 746 t for Waitati Inlet. In 2002 when cockles entered the QMS spatial restrictions upon harvest within COC 3 were removed. Commercial landings from Papanui and Waitati Inlets are shown in Table 1. Since August 2009 cockles have been taken from Otago Harbour under a special permit in order to investigate the ecosystem effects of commercial cockle harvesting in this location. This permit states no explicit limit to the tonnage able to be taken but does delimit the area where harvest will be taken and currently expires on the 31st of December 2015.

  • FT7 Vanished World
    GEOSCIENCES 09 Annual Conference Oamaru, NZ FIELD TRIP 7 VANISHED WORLD Wednesday 25 November 2009 Leader: Ewan Fordyce Geology Dept, University of Otago BIBLIOGRAPHIC REFERENCE: Fordyce, E. (2009). Vanished World. In: Turnbull, I.M. (ed.). Field Trip Guides, Geosciences 09 Conference, Oamaru, New Zealand. Geological Society of New Zealand Miscellaneous Publication 128B. 13 p. INTRODUCTION The trip has themes of: geological education/ geological sites; regional stratigraphy/ paleontology; and history of geology. It is based around localities from Papakaio to Duntroon-Maerewhenua, North Otago. We will visit a geological visitor centre - Vanished World Centre, Duntroon (www.vanishedworld.co.nz), and significant sites for the Paleogene of southern Canterbury Basin: Cameron's Pit (plant fossils, Cretaceous), Maerewhenua (shallow marine strata, sill, Eocene), and Awamoko-Duntroon (distal marine and unconformities, Oligocene). We will visit 1-2 of the sites specially developed for the public as part of the Vanished World Trail. Text, photos and graphics are by Ewan Fordyce. VANISHED WORLD The Vanished World Trail comprises a self-guided 80 km tour around some 20 geological sites in North Otago, on the coast from Waianakarua (south) to Oamaru (north), and inland to Duntroon in the Waitaki Valley. Sites are on public and private land; access to sites is free, but conditions may be imposed by some landowners. Some sites are close to or on roads, but others require a short walk. The trail is a community initiative developed by locals since 2000, in partnership with the University of Otago, to foster conservation, education and scientific study. The concept of Vanished World arose from local interest in, particularly, research on fossils from the district, but aims to take geology in the broadest sense to the public.
