  • CRT Conference 2020 – Bus Trips
    CRT Conference 2020 – Bus Trips South-eastern Southland fieldtrip 19th March 2020 Welcome and overview of the day. Invercargill to Gorge Road We are travelling on the Southern Scenic Route from Invercargill to the Catlins. Tisbury Old Dairy Factory – up to 88 around Southland We will be driving roughly along the boundary between the Southland Plains and Waituna Ecological Districts. The Southland Plains ED is characterized by a variety of forest on loam soils, while the Waituna District is characterized by extensive blanket bog with swamps and forest. Seaward Forest is located near the eastern edge of Invercargill to the north of our route today. It is the largest remnant of a large forest stand that extended from current day Invercargill to Gorge Road before European settlement and forest clearance. Long our route to Gorge Road we will see several other smaller forest remnants. The extent of Seaward forest is shown in compiled survey plans of Theophilus Heale from 1868. However even the 1865 extent of the forest is much reduced from the original pre-Maori forest extent. Almost all of Southland was originally forest covered with the exception of peat bogs, other valley floor wetlands, braided river beds and the occasional frost hollows. The land use has changed in this area over the previous 20 years with greater intensification and also with an increase in dairy farming. Surrounding features Takitimus Mtns – Inland (to the left) in the distance (slightly behind us) – This mountain range is one of the most iconic mountains in Southland – they are visible from much of Southland.

  • Southland Conservancy
    A Directory of Wetlands in New Zealand SOUTHLAND CONSERVANCY Te Anau Basin Wetland Complex (71) Location: 45o27'S, 167o46'E. To the east and southeast of Lake Te Anau, Southland, South Island. Area: c.2,400 ha. Altitude: 180-360 m. Overview: The Te Anau Basin Wetland Complex consists of seven distinct and isolated wetlands within the Te Anau Basin. These sites are the Dome Mire and Dismal Swamp area, Kepler Mire, Amoeboid Mire, Kakapo Swamp, Dunton Bog and two areas within the Snowdon Forest. The Dome Mire and Dismal Swamp area and Kepler Mire are described in greater detail as Sites 71a and 71b, respectively. All of the wetlands have a similar glacial origin; however, individual sites vary as a consequence of their history, drainage (water table, amounts of ponded water), fertility, topography etc. The complex of peatlands contains a rich variety of plant communities which include several significant plant distributions and provide important habitat for wildlife. Physical features: The Te Anau Basin lies on the eastern margin of Fiordland, a gneiss/schist/granite massif uplifted by the Alpine Fault on its western margin and carved by extensive glaciation through the Quaternary. On its eastern flank, down-faulting in the Te Anau Basin area has contributed to the preservation of soft Tertiary sedimentary rocks, and the deposition of glacial gravels. During the last glaciation, glaciers occupied much of the basin. Depressions and areas of limited drainage developed in the moraines, tills and outwash gravels as the glaciers retreated. Wetlands have developed on these glacial outwash deposits of last glacial to post-glacial age.

  • FROM POTHOLES to POLICY: How Invercargill City Council Informs Itself Of, and Has Regard To, the Views of All of Its Communities
    FROM POTHOLES TO POLICY: How Invercargill City Council informs itself of, and has regard to, the views of all of its communities Janette Malcolm School of Geography, E nvironment and Earth Sciences, Victoria University of Wellington Wellington, ew Zealand Submitted in partial fulfilment of the Master of D evelopment Studies D egree JULY 2008 Abstract In the 1990s, governments in the Western world were seeking solutions to the economic and social dysfunction resulting from a decade of pure neo-liberal policies. Increased inequalities in the distribution of wealth, the promotion of individualism at the expense of community and citizens feeling alienated from government had become critical problems, nowhere more so than in New Zealand. A solution that has been adopted is to reconnect government at all levels with citizens and the civic sector. The good governance agenda proposed increased transparency and accountability of government to citizens, and a new role for citizens as participants and partners. It became the foundation for a fundamental reform of local government in New Zealand, resulting in the Local Government Act 2002. However, the acquisition of a right to participate does not necessarily lead to knowledge of that right and the capacity to exercise it on the part of citizens: nor the willingness to allow it on the part of government. There are also more general questions about the exercise of power, about representation and about whose voices are heard. This thesis, through a case study of Invercargill City Council, a local government authority in Southland, New Zealand, examines these issues relating to citizen participation and the extent to which the Council has been able to create an environment and processes that enable all of its communities to participate.

  • Section 2.6 Areas of Significant Indigenous Vegetation and Significant Habitats of Indigenous Fauna Is Also Relevant to Wetlands
    SECTION TWO SIGNIFICANT RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ISSUES 2.1 INTRODUCTION 2.1.1 The process of preparing this Plan commenced with a wide-ranging programme of consultation throughout the community. Groups with a perceived community of interest were also called together to identify what they saw as fields of enquiry that should be addressed. Consultation was held with the Ministry for the Environment, the Department of Conservation, the Southland Regional Council, the Southland District Council, takata whenua (through representatives of the four runaka), and such groups as the Southland Fish and Game Council, the New Zealand Historic Places Trust, the Southland Conservation Board, Invercargill Airport Ltd, South Port, New Zealand Aluminium Smelters, New Zealand Transport Agency, the Ministry of Forestry, the Ministry of Health, and representatives from other organisations such as Federated Farmers. 2.1.2 From this consultative process, significant issues emerged and were explored by Council’s District Plan Group. In general these issues were identified by more than one group, or were particularly significant to a group. The Plan Group selected from these issues those which could be addressed in the context of a plan prepared under the Resource Management Act. A process of “sieving” took place to identify and isolate the significant Resource Management issues to be addressed in the Plan. 2.1.3 For the purposes of this Plan a resource management issue is identified as significant when: (A) It is within the ambit of the Resource Management Act 1991 (B) It has been expressed by the community as being of importance (C) It would be possible for Council to modify the outcome through intervention 2.1.4 People hold values for resources or attributes.

  • Regional Pest Management Plan (The Proposal) Without the Need for a Good Neighbour Rule
    Environment Southland staff responses to questions from the Hearing Panel - Minute 2 Staff have provided responses to the questions provided by the Hearing Panel by way of Minute 2 dated 31 August 2017. a) Why did the proposal not include a good neighbour rule for possums and rabbits? Rabbits Over the last 25 years, neighbour/boundary rabbit problems have not been an issue in Southland. If cross boundary rabbit issue occurred, staff are proposing to work with landowners to ensure both properties meet their obligations under the proposed Regional Pest Management Plan (the proposal) without the need for a good neighbour rule. Possums Nationally a 500m Good Neighbour Rule was proposed by the Biomanagers Good Neighbour Rules development group for possum control. This GNR was considered as part of the development of the proposal. However ES staff do not believe a 500m GNR is an effective management approach to reduce possum densities due to their high mobility and reinvasion rate. The cost benefit analysis carried out by Landwaterpeople supports this view and states ‘The good neighbour rule does not appear to meet the tests of reasonableness in the NPD, because the boundary control distance of 500m provides no benefit in terms of control costs for recipient landholders. The only situation which comes close is when both the source and receptor landholder are low prone land (pasture and open country), where the costs of the source landholder are approximately 50% more than the savings in costs for the receptor landholder’. Staff also considered the cost of having to monitor both parties (one monitor to prove the receptor was below 5% and doing a good job and one to prove the exacerbators was over 5%, affecting their neighbour and therefore in need of compliance action).
