  • Water Resource Summary: Pareora-Waihao
    Pareora – Waihao River: Water Resource Summary Report No. R06/20 ISBN 1-86937-602-1 note CHAPTER 5 DRAFT - not ready Prepared by Philippa Aitchison-Earl Marc Ettema Graeme Horrell Alistair McKerchar Esther Smith August 2005 1 Report R06/20, ISBN 1-86937-602-1 58 Kilmore Street PO Box 345 Christchurch Phone (03) 365 3828 Fax (03) 365 3194 75 Church Street PO Box 550 Timaru Phone (03) 688 9069 Fax (03) 688 9067 Website: www.ecan.govt.nz Customer Services Phone 0800 324 636 2 Executive summary The water resources of the rivers and associated groundwater resources draining The Hunters Hills in South Canterbury are described and quantified. These rivers include the Pareora River in the north and the Waihao River in the south, and those between. None of the rivers is large and while they sometimes flood, their usual state is to convey very low flows. Given the population in the region, including Timaru which takes much of its water supply from the upper Pareora River, the region is arguably the most water deficient in the country. More than 100 years of record are available for several raingauges in the region. Mean annual rainfalls are less than 600 mm on the coast, increasing to about 1200 mm at higher points in The Hunters Hills. Monthly rainfalls show a slight tendency toward lower values in winter months. Typical (median) monthly totals range from about 25 mm to about 80 mm. Particularly dry periods occurred in 1914-1916, 1984-1985, 1989-1999 and 2001 to 2003. Since 1996, annual rainfalls have exceeded the mean annual values in only two or three years.

While crossing The Hunters Hills they Hook Bush Conservation Area 14 were overtaken by an unexpected snowstorm. They Mt Nimrod Scenic Reserve 16 hurried to reach safety but during the blizzard everyone got separated and when they re-assembled only Te Kaumira was missing. After the storm Te Kaumira’s body was eventually discovered under a rock shelter, and the mountain range was named Te Tari a Te Kaumira (The Long Range of Te Kaumira) in memory of Te Kaumira. Since the day Rākaihautū first walked upon this land Te Tari a Te Kaumira has been an important area for gathering food and other resources. The large number of umu (earth ovens) within this area attest to its importance to those peoples of Waitaha, Rapuwai, Kāti Mamoe and Ngāi Tahu who dwelt within the shadow of these peaks and whose descendants still walk these trails.

If changes sought in the plan are adopted they may impact on others but I am not in direct trade competition with them. I do wish to be heard in support of this submission Nutrient Allocation Reference Group I acknowledge the extensive work of the Nutrient Allocation Reference Group in seeking to put forward a consensus agreement on an allocation method for the catchment. While that agreement reflects an agreed decision to try and make the best of what is generally considered a bad solution to nutrient allocation in the catchment, I am concerned that position does not reach an optimal nutrient allocation for the catchment or for optimising or incentivising the management of Nitrogen and other nutrient loss from individual properties.
