This publication may be reproduced in whole or in part provided the source is fully and clearly acknowledged. ISBN 1-877265-67-5 Published August 2008 Water of Leith, Kaikorai, Waitati and Carey’s Creek i Foreword To help protect water quality, the Otago Regional Council (ORC) carries out long- term water quality monitoring as part of a State of the Environment programme. To supplement this information, targeted and detailed short-term monitoring programmes are also implemented in some catchments. This report provides the results from more detailed investigations carried out in three catchments: Water of Leith Kaikorai Stream Waitati River and Carey’s Creek The Water of Leith and Kaikorai Stream are both located in Dunedin and drain typical residential and industrial areas. Both watercourses have many stormwater outfalls which compromise water quality. The Waitati River and Carey’s Creek have little development in their catchments. The upper catchments are forested while lower in the catchment, pasture dominates. Water quality is generally very good. This report forms a baseline study from which ORC and local community programmes can work together to address various issues in the catchments. It is hoped that these catchment programmes will promote environmentally sound practices which will sustain and improve water quality.

  • South Island Infrastructure Investment
    South Island Infrastructure Investment • Rolling out more than $7 billion of investment in transport projects, schools, hospitals and water infrastructure across the South Island. • Commitment to rolling our shovel-ready projects and a pipeline of long-term projects to create certainty for our construction sector. Labour will continue to build on its strong record of investment in infrastructure and roll out more than $7 billion of infrastructure investment in the South Island. Our $7 billion of infrastructure investment in the South Island provides certainty to the regions and employers. This investment will result in long-term job creation and significant economic benefits. In government, we have managed the books wisely. With historically low interest rates, we are able to outline this much-needed investment in infrastructure. This investment is both affordable and the right thing to do. This will not be all of our infrastructure investment in the next term, and we will continue to invest in capital infrastructure for health, housing, transport and local government, as well as other areas. But this provides a pipeline of work that will assist us in recovering from the impacts of COVID-19. The overall infrastructure investment for the South Island includes: • $274.1 million of investment via the New Zealand Upgrade programme for transport projects • $368.72 million from the Provincial Growth Fund • $667 million from the IRG projects • $3.5 billion from the National Land Transport Programme (forecast 2018-2021). • $6 million from the

  • The Dunedin Earthquake, 9 April, 1974 Part 2: Local
    123 THE DUNEDIN EARTHQUAKE, 9 APRIL, 1974 PART 2: LOCAL EFFECTS D. G. Bishop* ABSTRACT The earthquake of 9 April, 1974 was the strongest experienced in the Dunedin area in historic times. It was centred at sea about 10 km south of the city and had a magnitude of 5.0. The felt intensity reached MMVII in the St. Clair area, where a ground acceleration of 0.27 g was recorded. Variations in felt intensity were determined from a survey of grocery stores. The intensity decreased rapidly away from a maximum on the alluvial ground of the southern suburbs and correlated strongly with the underlying rock type. The number of claims received by the Earthquake and War Damage Commission was extraordinarily large for an earthquake of this magnitude. Damage, generally of a rather minor nature, was reported from all parts of the city, but was greatly concentrated in the South Dunedin - St. Clair area. About half of the 3000 claims received included chimney damage. The effects of the earthquake highlight the need to assess the safety of public buildings in Dunedin, particularly those sited on areas of thick alluvium. INTRODUCTION central city area and an intensity of MMVII at St. Clair. A sharp earthquake was felt throughout the Dunedin City area at 7.50 p.m. on GEOLOGY Tuesday, 9 April, 1974. The earthquake had a shallow focus (probably about 20 km) Dunedin City is built on the southern about 10 km south of the city? its magnitude flank of the Dunedin Volcanic Complex was 5.0 (see Part 1 for details).

  • THE ZEN of CRUISING NEW ZEALAND Text and Photos by Amanda Castleman
    >travelgirl glimpse: new zealand Hei Matau: Safe Passage Across Water THE ZEN OF CRUISING NEW ZEALAND text and photos by Amanda Castleman An albatross lazes along beside the boat. Our engines push against the wind and on-rushing tide off New Zealand’s Otago Peninsula. But this bird just cruises — look ma, no hands! — on its 10-foot wingspan. That same power carries non-breeding toroa (royal northern albatrosses) on circumpolar flights, skating along the Antarctic fringes and nesting on far-flung, salt-chapped islands. Just one colony, here at Taiaroa Head, deigns to live on a human-inhabited mainland. Otago is an exception-worthy place with its free- hold farms, sun-soaked coves and volcanic sea cliffs. Sand dunes rear up 325 feet in one area. The nation’s only castle rides the peninsula’s spine: a monument to William Larnach, a gold miner turned banker and 19th-century politician. Nearby lives the world’s rarest penguin, the native Hoiho (“noise shouter” in Maori), Mount Cargill’s trails overlook Dunedin and the Otago peninsula, home to the only colony of royal northern albatrosses on a human-inhabited mainland. which slouches on the $5 bill beside some giant daisies. 54 kiXm\c^`ic nnn%kiXm\c^`ic`eZ%Zfd 55 >travelgirl glimpse: new zealand Like much of New Zealand, Otago’s natural beauty is epic. Wide-screen. Almost over-bright, as if Hobbit Director Peter Jackson filmed the whole Colorado-sized country in 48 frames per second. And though I’ve been warned — begged even — not to mention “bloody Middle Earth again,” I can’t help myself.

  • Wellinformed May 2019
    WellInformed May 2019 From the Chief Executive As I continue to travel the region, I am impressed with the desire of motivated people in primary care to deliver high quality care and be involved in new and improved models of service delivery. There is no better example than the rollout and implementation of the Health Care Home program in the Southern region which is showing very promising outcomes for practices and patients. Of note: • Three practices (16,475 patients) have opened doctors’ notes to patients. • 1,485 additional patients have been registered on portals in first tranche practices . • 35% of same day appointment requests have been resolved by phone, saving the patient from coming to the practice and giving the practice increased capacity. • Over 4,500 patients have had CLIC comprehensive health assessments. • A practice in Gore has successfully begun multi-disciplinary team meetings on Palliative and Level 3 CLIC patients. One of the key roles of an organisation such as WellSouth is to advocate for primary care and ensure that general practice has access to funding to support their enrolled patients. Primary Options for Acute Care (POAC) is one such example where funding has been found for the extended care that practices are able to undertake to keep their patients out of hospital. We will be working with practices to better understand what other services can be added to the list of POAC pathways. Again thank you to those that have invited me to their place of work. I have really enjoyed the visits and have learnt a lot.
