As one of the agencies responsible for biodiversity protection, the Department received an additional $12 million in 2000/01 including more than $2 million to assist protection of conservation values on private land. This substantial new funding has allowed the Department to make headway on many ‘if only’ projects. Complementing this, special ‘Green Package’ funding of $2.5 million enabled the Department to greatly expand its community awareness and conservation education initiatives. The results have been very encouraging. Significant species protection work made possible by the biodiversity package included the establishment of five kiwi sanctuaries, the commencement of the largest island restoration project in the world (on the 11,300 ha sub-Antarctic Campbell Island), and expanded weed and animal pest control. New projects to manage threatened native species were begun, and several marine reserve proposals were progressed. Landowner willingness to protect conservation areas on private land was reflected in increased interest in the Nature Heritage Fund and Nga Whenua Rahui. Community willingness to become involved in biodiversity protection projects was extremely heartening. Other highlights this year included the announcement of Rakiura National Park, New Zealand’s 14th, and the announced transfer of 130,000 ha of ecologically important forests from Timberlands West Coast to the Department. Some 35,000 ha of additional high-value high country tussock grasslands are now also protected by the Department, a result of many years of tenure review negotiations. Restoration and maintenance of historic heritage assets continued throughout the country, and included work at sites of importance to both Màori and Pakeha: the ongoing restoration of Auckland’s Fort Takapuna, a system of tracks and interpretative signs at Huriawa Pa north of Dunedin, and restoration work at several Otago goldfields sites. A five year programme of inspections and upgrades of visitor structures such as bridges, boardwalks and jetties was concluded, and most tracks and huts have now received baseline inspections in readiness for maintenance or replacement over the next three years. The centennial of Egmont National Park in October 2000 was marked at official openings of renovated visitor centres at North Egmont and Dawson Falls. Over the coming year the Department will continue to build on the progress made implementing the New Zealand Biodiversity Strategy, and its management of recreational and historic resources. In this the 5 C. 13 Department of Conservation Annual Report 2000/01 Department will be guided by the priorities and goals of its new Statement of Intent, the major strategic milestone of last year, which spans the years 2001–2004. Hugh Logan Director-General 6 Department of Conservation Annual Report 2000/01 C. 13 7 C. 13 Department of Conservation Annual Report 2000/01 ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION Statutory Mandate The Department of Conservation is the leading central government agency responsible for the conservation of New Zealand’s natural and historic heritage. Its legislative mandate is the Conservation Act 1987 and other key statutes such as the National Parks Act and Reserves Act.1 Like other government departments, the Department of Conservation has the responsibility to advise Ministers and the Government and to implement government policy. The Department’s key functions as set out in the Conservation Act are: • to manage land and other natural and historic resources; • to preserve as far as practicable all indigenous freshwater fisheries, protect recreational fisheries and freshwater habitats; • to advocate conservation of natural and historic resources; • to promote the benefits of conservation of natural and historic resources (including those of Antarctica) here and on the international stage; • to provide conservation information; and • to foster recreation and allow tourism, to the extent that use is not inconsistent with the conservation of any natural or historic resource. The Department has a particular responsibility under section 4 of the Conservation Act to interpret and administer the Act so as to give effect to the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi. This involves building and supporting effective conservation partnerships with tangata whenua at the local level. The Department also contributes to the conservation and sustainable management of natural and historic heritage in areas for which it is not directly responsible. It does this through its roles under other statutes including the Resource Management Act 1991, the Fisheries Acts 1983 and 1996, the Biosecurity Act 1993, the Forest and Rural Fires Act 1997 and the Crown Pastoral Lands Act 1998. Conservation management and the work of the Department are characterised by a high level of public input. Conservation is based on societal support, and on the concept that conservation land is the common heritage of all New Zealanders. As such, conservation land is public land. These principles are inherent in all conservation legislation. This legislation also establishes a hierarchy of conservation boards and the New Zealand Conservation Authority, an independent body appointed by the Minister. The Authority has powers to approve formal management plans to guide the Department, and also serves to advise the Minister. 1 The legislation determining the Department’s mandate is listed in the First Schedule to the Conservation Act 1987. 8 Department of Conservation Annual Report 2000/01

During the c. 730 years since New Zealand has been settled by people, mammalian predators have invaded many islands and caused local and global extinctions. New Zealand has led international efforts in island restoration. By the late 1980s, translocations of threatened birds to predator-free islands were well under way to safeguard against extinction. Non-native herbivores and predators, such as goats and cats, had been eradicated from some islands. A significant development in island restoration in the mid-1980s was the eradication of rats from small forested islands. This eradication technology has been refined and currently at least 65 islands, including large and remote Campbell (11 216 ha) and Raoul (2938 ha) Islands, have been successfully cleared of rats.

    Taxon Plan for Eastern brown kiwi (Apteryx australis mantelli, Eastern) Strategic plan for the recovery of Eastern brown kiwi for the period 2014 – 2019 and beyond, including key actions required for their recovery. Lead author: Rhys Burns East Coast Bay of Plenty Conservancy Rotorua Version Date: April 2014 DOCDM-1256468 - Eastern NIBK Taxon Plan DRAFT 1 Low res figures 1 Last printed 27/11/2014 4:49:00 p.m. Preface The 2008-2018 Kiwi Recovery Plan (Holzapfel et al. 2008) provides strategic direction, at a national level, to ensure the long term viability of all kiwi taxa1. The Kiwi Recovery Group is responsible for the implementation and review of this national plan. Because the Kiwi Recovery Plan provides general national strategic level advice for many taxa over many regions, it can not practicably spell out management for each individual taxon to the level of detail required to guide work-plans and thus implement successful recovery. This is the role of taxon plans. Taxon plans translate the relevant goals, objectives and actions of the Kiwi Recovery Plan into a local context for individual taxa at a level of detail sufficient to guide operational plans. They are ‘best advice’ for all stakeholders regarding goals, objectives and actions, priorities and opportunities, for the management of individual taxa. As such, taxon plans are key documents for the implementation of the Kiwi Recovery Plan. Although taxon plans are more operationally-focused than the Kiwi Recovery Plan, they do not provide the level of detail of a workplan. Nor do taxon plans provide details of best practice information which is instead provided at a national level by the Kiwi Best Practice Manual (Robertson, et al.

Email: [email protected] Hauraki Maori traditional knowledge (which the New Zealand Maori term matauranga) concerning the harvest ofTiti, Grey-faced Petrel, Pterodroma macroptera gouldi (Hutton, 1869), on the islands adjacent to the Coromandel Peninsula was recorded and analysed. The harvest ofTiti linked Hauraki individuals ro culture, ancestors, individual well-being and tribal identity. It also maintained mana (prestige), kaitiaki (environmental guardian) responsibilities and matauranga systems. Harvest tallies ofTiti chicks (and number of birders) declined from 15 000 chicks (and 100-150 birders) before 1950, to 1000-J 200 chicks ( 10-20 birders) by the late 1980s, to < 100 chicks (5-10 birders) in 2007. Decline in harvest tallies was not due solely to fewer individuals harvesting because daily catch rates per birder also declined, in some circumstances by as much as 87%, over this time.
