  • WEST COAST STATUS REPORT Meeting Paper for West Coast Tai Poutini Conservation Board
    WEST COAST STATUS REPORT Meeting Paper For West Coast Tai Poutini Conservation Board TITLE OF PAPER STATUS REPORT AUTHOR: Mark Davies SUBJECT: Status Report for the Board for period ending 15 April 2016 DATE: 21 April 2016 SUMMARY: This report provides information on activities throughout the West Coast since the 19 February 2016 meeting of the West Coast Tai Poutini Conservation Board. MARINE PLACE The Operational Plan for the West Coast Marine Reserves is progressing well. The document will be sent out for Iwi comment on during May. MONITORING The local West Coast monitoring team completed possum monitoring in the Hope and Stafford valleys. The Hope and Stafford valleys are one of the last places possums reached in New Zealand, arriving in the 1990’s. The Hope valley is treated regularly with aerial 1080, the Stafford is not treated. The aim is to keep possum numbers below 5% RTC in the Hope valley and the current monitor found an RTC of 1.3% +/- 1.2%. The Stafford valley is also measured as a non-treatment pair for the Hope valley, it had an RTC of 21.5% +/- 6.2%. Stands of dead tree fuchsia were noted in the Stafford valley, and few mistletoe were spotted. In comparison, the Hope Valley has abundant mistletoe and healthy stands of fuchsia. Mistletoe recruitment plots, FBI and 20x20m plots were measured in the Hope this year, and will be measured in the Stafford valley next year. KARAMEA PLACE Planning Resource Consents received, Regional and District Plans, Management Planning One resource consent was received for in-stream drainage works.

    F I S H AND GAME NEW ZEALAND WEST COAST REGION SPORTS FISH AND GAME MANAGEMENT PLAN To manage, maintain and enhance the sports fish and game resource in the recreational interests of anglers and hunters AIRPORT DRIVE PO BOX 179 HOKITIKA 1 2 FOREWORD FROM THE CHAIRMAN I am pleased to present the Sportsfish and Game Management Plan for the West Coast Fish and Game Council. This plan has been prepared in line with the statutory responsibilities of Fish and Game West Coast following extensive consultation with a wide range of stakeholders. It identifies issues and establishes goals, objectives, and implementation methods for all output classes. While it provides an excellent snapshot-in-time of Fish and Game West Coast it should be noted that, as well as ongoing issues, there are likely to be further challenges in the future which will have the potential to impact on angler/hunter opportunities and satisfaction. To this extent, this plan must be seen as a document designed to be capable of addressing changing requirements by way of the annual workplan and in response to ongoing input from anglers and hunters, as well as other users of fish and game habitat. The West Coast Fish and Game Council welcomes such input.

  • THE IMPORTANCE of INFREQUENT EARTHQUAKES ALONG the ALPINE FAULT by Andrew Wells
    LANDSCAPE DISTURBANCE HISTORY IN WESTLAND, NEW ZEALAND: THE IMPORTANCE OF INFREQUENT EARTHQUAKES ALONG THE ALPINE FAULT A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Andrew Wells Lincoln University 1998 ii ABSTRACT Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy LANDSCAPE DISTURBANCE HISTORY IN WESTLAND, NEW ZEALAND: THE IMPORTANCE OF INFREQUENT EARTHQUAKES ALONG THE ALPINE FAULT by Andrew Wells This thesis investigates landscape disturbance history in Westland since 1350 AD. Specifically, I test the hypothesis that large-magnitude regional episodes of natural disturbance have periodically devastated portions of the landscape and forest, and that these were caused by infrequent earthquakes along the Alpine Fault. Forest stand history reconstruction was used to determine the timing and extent of erosion and sedimentation events that initiated new forest cohorts in a 1412 ha study area in the Karangarua River catchment, south Westland. Over 85 % of the study area was disturbed sufficiently by erosion/sedimentation since 1350 AD to initiate new forest cohorts. During this time four episodes of catchment-wide disturbance impacted the study area, and these took place about 1825 AD ± 5 years (Ruera episode), 1715 AD ± 5 years (Sparkling episode), 1615 AD ± 5 years (McTaggart episode), and 1445 AD ± 15 years (Junction episode). The three most recent episodes disturbed 10 %, 35-40 % and 32-50 % respectively of the study area. The Junction episode disturbed at least 6 % of the study area, but elimination of evidence by more recent disturbances prevented an upper limit being defined.
