We have also consulted with owners of Rangatira A6B2, who also own underlying land subject to the proposal. o We will update the Plan Change Application and get a copy of it to him prior to lodging with Council. Te Arawa River Iwi Trust (TARIT) • Letter of Comment received, dated 13 July 2020. • Concerns restricted to potential adverse effect the proposal might have on the added pressure the additional Nukuhau population might have on wastewater infrastructure, particularly the pipe over the Waikato River. TARIT knows this is an issue for TDC to resolve, not the Nukuhau Structure Plan, and TARIT therefore ‘supports the direction of the Nukuhau Plan Change’.

  • Target Taupo
    TARGET TAUPO A Newsletter for Hunters and Anglers in the Tongariro/Taupo Conservancy JULY 1997, ISSUE 25 • Department of Consen-ation Te Papa Atau•/:Jai ECNZe h lps out on the Tokaanu Srream weed clean up The Tokaanu stream, an important spawning stream to the Taupo fishery received a major clean up thanks to the help and effort from ECNZ and the Taupo District Council. For over five years Tokaanu residents have been concerned at higher than normal stream levels. These have caused serious worries concerning high water tables, drainage and septic tank problems. Weed was restricting discharge of the stream co the lake, creating a backwater effect upstream, which caused the high water levels. The recent weed clearance project - a joint initiative between ECNZ and the Taupo District Council - using a weed harvester has removed much of the problem, improving the water flow and reducing the risk of flooding of the adjacent properties. The project, between the lake edge and SH41 bridge, has dramatically changed levels in the stream which have dropped by 30mm at the Domain Bridge, above the hoc pools co 550mm in the lower reaches. The Taupo District Council contributed the labour, a loader and a truck, while ECNZ undertook consultation with iwi, the local community and the Department of Conservation, Turangi. ECNZ project manager, Tracey Hickman, said ECNZ was not responsible for weed control, but it had agreed co assist the removal of weed as a demonstration of the corporation's commitment co the community. t>1Ecnz TARGET TAUPO A newsletter

  • Mapping the Socio- Political Life of the Waikato River MARAMA MURU-LANNING
    6. ‘At Every Bend a Chief, At Every Bend a Chief, Waikato of One Hundred Chiefs’: Mapping the Socio- Political Life of the Waikato River MARAMA MURU-LANNING Introduction At 425 kilometres, the Waikato River is the longest river in New Zealand, and a vital resource for the country (McCan 1990: 33–5). Officially beginning at Nukuhau near Taupo township, the river is fed by Lake Taupo and a number of smaller rivers and streams throughout its course. Running swiftly in a northwesterly direction, the river passes through many urban, forested and rural areas. Over the past 90 years, the Waikato River has been adversely impacted by dams built for hydro-electricity generation, by runoff and fertilisers associated with farming and forestry, and by the waste waters of several major industries and urban centres. At Huntly, north of Taupiri (see Figure 6.1), the river’s waters are further sullied when they are warmed during thermal electricity generation processes. For Māori, another major desecration of the Waikato River occurs when its waters are diverted and mixed with waters from other sources, so that they can be drunk by people living in Auckland. 137 Island Rivers Figure 6.1 A socio-political map of the Waikato River and catchment. Source: Created by Peter Quin, University of Auckland. As the Waikato River is an important natural resource, it has a long history of people making claims to it, including Treaty of Waitangi1 claims by Māori for guardianship recognition and management and property rights.2 This process of claiming has culminated in a number of tribes 1 The Treaty of Waitangi was signed by the British Crown and more than 500 Māori chiefs in 1840.

  • Appendix One – Relationships Between Corrections and Marae, Hapu, Iwi and Other Urban Maori Authorities
    Appendix One – Relationships between Corrections and Marae, Hapu, Iwi and other urban Maori authorities Northern Region Prison Marae/hapū/organisation Project Additional info Northland Region Ngāti Hine Supply vegetables and textiles Sewing instructor and team of paihere Corrections Facility have recycled bedding, blankets, duvets, pillows etc, most of which were donated to the prison from hospice. All items were laundered, and repairs completed on site. Donated bags of clothing were washed and upcycled by the sewing room workers and given to those most in need, both children and adults. From all of the above, we achieved positive training results and satisfaction from the prisoners that they had made a difference to those people in the community they may have offended. Our Community Garden supplies the following local community groups; Ngāpuhi Aotearoa, North Point Mental Health Trust, Women’s Refuge, Aroha Trust, Ngāti Hine Health, Ngāti Hine Medical – Kawakawa, Teen Mums – Kaikohe, Kaikohe Budget Service. This includes prisoners released on probation who are struggling to find employment. Appendix One - Department of Corrections (C118687) The 2019 year saw production surpass 4.9T of sustainable organically grown vegetables. These included potatoes, peruperu, broccoli, onions, cabbage, leeks, bok choy, taro leaves, carrots, silver beet, tomatoes and much more. When this produce leaves the site, a karakia blessing is given for all those who will receive the produce. Similarly, this blesses the men who have grown the produce. Paihere also gain top learning outcomes with National Riparian planting project Certificates. NRCF nursery supplies various groups who are involved in Riparian Planting including Waitangi Trust & Sam Judd of Sustainable Coast.
