The Proposed Northern Runway location is extends from the Manukau Harbour to a point just west of Tautauroa Creek as shown in Figure 1 below. In 2014, AIAL developed a Masterplan comprising a 30-year vision for Auckland Airport to allow for predicted growth in tourism in a way that will position the airport as hub for travel in Australasia and the Pacific Rim.1 As part of the 2014 Masterplan, AIAL has determined that it needs to alter the length of its northern runway in the existing designation ("Designated Northern Runway") to accommodate forecast growth and demand at Auckland Airport. The Designated Northern Runway and Proposed Northern Runway fall within a broader designation that encompasses the Airport in its entirety. Figure 1: Proposed Northern Runway Location (Option 3) 1 See http://airportofthefuture.co.nz/ AIAL Northern Runway CEA Chetham Consulting Ltd 2016 3 1.1 Purpose of the Report Chetham Consulting Ltd has been commissioned by AIAL to assist in the development of a mana whenua engagement strategy and to collate and summarise mana whenua Cultural Values Assessment (CVA) reports identifying cultural values in relation to Northern and Southern “Areas of Influence”. Mana whenua engagement in relation to the NOR application is detailed below in section 2 of this report. The CVA summary report was utilised to identify potential constraints of the various options within these areas to inform the assessment of alternatives process and location of a second runway ("Proposed Second Runway"). Following confirmation of the configuration of the Proposed Northern Runway, mana whenua had a further opportunity to undertake cultural impact assessments (CIAs) to understand and determine the potential effects of the Proposed Northern Runway on cultural values and recommend methods for avoiding, remedying or mitigating such effects. This report summarises the mana whenua engagement undertaken, outcomes of mana whenua CVAs, the assessment of alternatives and the findings of mana whenua CIAs. An assessment of the potential cultural effects of the proposal is provided, along with recommendations for mitigation. 2 Mana Whenua Engagement Figure 2 below outlines the approach was employed in mana whenua engagement and the preparation of this Cultural Effects Assessment. AIAL Northern Runway CEA Chetham Consulting Ltd 2016 4 •Confirm mana whenua to be involved in engagement process; •Confirm engagement process •Hold hui-a-iwi or individually contact iwi to agree engagement process and clarify Step 1 involvement/roles •Undertake Cultural Values Assessments (CVA) •Undertake Literature Review Step 2 •Mana whenua CIAs collated into a summary CVA Report •Assessment of Alternatives •Key themes from CVAs were utilised to develop Cultural Evaluation Criteria •The likely impacts of the various runway options were scored against the criteria Step 3 and factored into the overall selection of the Proposed Northern Runway. •Cultural Impact Assessment (CIA) •Mana whenua assessments based on Proposed Northern Runway and associated effects Step 4 •Mana whenua CIA’s collated into a summary Cultural Effects Assessment Report Figure 2: Engagement and Cultural Effects Assessment Roadmap AIAL Northern Runway CEA Chetham Consulting Ltd 2016 5 AIAL is bordered to the east by Te Ākitai Waiohua at Pūkaki, and to the north by Te Kawerau a Maki (including Te Ahiwaru) at Makaurau. AIAL has existing relationships with these iwi that have been formalised through Memoranda of Relationship/Understanding. A wider engagement process commenced in September 2014 when initial contact was made with the remaining 10 mana whenua groups identified in the Proposed Auckland Unitary Plan. This was followed by a collective hui held in October 2014 and attended by representatives of Tainui, Orakei Marae, Pūkaki Marae and Te Kawerau a Maki. Through the hui-a-iwi and individual contact, Ngāti Te Ata Waiohua, Ngāti Tamaoho, Te Kawerau a Maki (through Te Kawerau Iwi Tribal Authority/TKITA) and Te Ākitai Waiohua indicated a desire to carry out CVAs in relation to the proposal. A number of other iwi, including Ngāti Whatua Orakei, Te Runanga o Ngāti Whatua, Ngai Tai Ki Tamaki Tribal Trust, Ngāti Maru and Waikato Tainui deferred to the Hau Kainga2 but requested to be updated on the proposal in future. Responses were not received from Ngāti Whanaunga, Ngāti Tamatera and Ngāti Paoa. Site visits and an information package was made available to Ngāti Te Ata Waiohua, Ngāti Tamaoho, TKITA and Te Ākitai Waiohua to assist in the development of CVAs in late 2014 and early 2015. CVAs were later updated to take into consideration the Southern Area of Influence. The findings of the CVA reports were summarised by Chetham Consulting Ltd and key themes utilised to inform AIAL's assessment of alternatives process in early 2016. All 13 mana whenua authorities were invited to attend a hui/workshop held in May 2016 to provide an update on the Assessment of Alternatives process, how the CVAs had informed that process and next steps, ie. the development of CIA’s. Technical experts engaged by AIAL, including the consultant archaeologist, ecologist and landscape architect, were also present to provide an overview of their findings and answer questions. Representatives of TKITA, Makaurau Marae Trust and Ngāti Whanaunga attended this hui. Individual follow up workshops on the same topic were also held in May and June 2016 with Te Ākitai Waiohua and Ngāti Te Ata Waiohua respectively. The results of the Assessment of Alternatives exercise were relayed to Ngāti Tamaoho via telephone calls and correspondence through June and July 2016 with the author of this report. As a result of the selection of an option involving no reclamation of the Manukau Harbour Ngāti Tamaoho determined that they would not need to prepare a further CIA. Similarly, Ngāti Te Ata Waiohua elected not to prepare a CIA as their earlier CVA was considered comprehensive enough and as a result of its use in the site selection process. At the workshop in May 2016, Ngāti Whanaunga intially indicated

Thorpe † † School of Biological Sciences (Tamaki Campus), University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand Corresponding author: Stephen E. Thorpe ([email protected]) Academic editor: Laurence Livermore Received: 24 Jul 2013 | Accepted: 06 Aug 2013 | Published: 16 Sep 2013 Citation: Thorpe S (2013) Casuarinicola australis Taylor, 2010 (Hemiptera: Triozidae), newly recorded from New Zealand. Biodiversity Data Journal 1: e953. doi: 10.3897/BDJ.1.e953 Abstract The presence in New Zealand of the triozid Casuarinicola australis Taylor, 2010 is reported for the first time, based on new material from Auckland. This is also the first record of the genus from New Zealand. Keywords Casuarinicola australis, Casuarina, New Zealand, Auckland, new record, Triozidae Introduction Casuarinicola australis Taylor, 2010 was described from Australia, where it is the most common and widespread member of its genus, being widely distributed in New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia. Like its congeners, it is restricted to host trees of the genus Casuarina. Casuarinicola australis occurs on all Australian species of Casuarina, including C. cunninghamiana and C. glauca. Both these species of Casuarina are exotic and present in the wild in New Zealand, according to the New Zealand Organisms Register (NZOR), as well as present in cultivation. Casuarinicola has not been reported (by name) previously from N.Z. © Thorpe S.
