  • THE FATAL ACCIDENT in OTIRA TUNNEL. . Before 1864 Maori
    THE FATAL ACCIDENT IN OTIRA TUNNEL. Stephen WOOD, killed during construction of the Otira Tunnel Before 1864 Maori travelled through the Bealey and Otira valleys on their journeys to Westland in search of greenstone though they chose a less steep route, often through the Harper Pass, for the return journey. Arthur's Pass is 920 metres above sea level, and there is a steep descent to Otira in the west. Arthur's Pass is named after Arthur Dudley Dobson, an explorer/surveyor who discovered the pass in 1864. In 1865 a tent camp was set up for surveyors to prepare for the construction of the road to the West Coast where gold had been discovered in 1864. In 1866 the road was opened for coach traffic, and Cobb and Co coaches began to take passengers and mail over this hazardous road. The coaches set out from Christchurch, crossing the unbridged Waimakariri River, following the Bealey River up to the Arthur's Pass Village, climbing to the top of the Pass, descending through the Otira Gorge to the village of Otira, and then continuing to Hokitika. The journey took thirty six hours with an overnight stop at Bealey. In 1901 the Arthur's Pass National Park was established on the suggestion of Dr Leonard Cockayne. 72,000 hectares around the headwaters of the Waimakariri, Arthur's Pass and Otira were reserved for national park purposes under the provisions of the Land Act 1892. It was New Zealand's third National Park and now encompasses an area of 114.000 hectares. In 1883 a Royal Commission had decided that the Arthur's Pass route was the best for the railway to link the east and west coasts.

    DEVELOPING BEST MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES FOR EFFLUENT APPLICATION IN HIGH RAINFALL REGIONS S. Laurenson1, D.J. Houlbrooke2, R. Monaghan1 T. Wilson3, S. Morgan4 1AgResearch, Invermay Agriculture Centre, Private Bag 50034, Mosgiel, New Zealand 2AgResearch, Ruakura, Private Bag 3123, Hamilton 3240 3DairyNZ, Private Bag 3221, Hamilton 3240 4Westland Milk Products, PO Box 96 Hokitika E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Two- (or more) pond treatment systems discharging to water have traditionally been used for managing farm dairy effluent (FDE) on the West Coast. Many existing systems continue to discharge FDE directly into high volume, short reach rivers. This practice has come under recent scrutiny due to the potential effects of soluble P on the water quality of Lake Brunner. Application of FDE to land at a suitable irrigation depth (mm) and rate (mm/hr) is an alternative option with potential to curtail surface water pollution associated with direct discharge and recycle valuable nutrients for agronomic benefit. However, this approach does present some challenges because high annual rainfall (i.e. approx 4.8m per annum) results in a large volume of water collected from the dairy shed catchment areas while and also limits the development of soil water deficits that are large enough to safely apply FDE to land with high risk soils. The West Coast Regional Council (WCRC) intends to develop regulatory options for the management of FDE in the Lake Brunner Catchment that employ a decision support framework for application to land. Many West Coast soils would be defined as ‘high risk’ due to poor natural drainage or the hump and hollow drainage systems.

  • 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.
