Buller counts cost of flooding

T

The West Coast Messenger

Wednesday, February 23, 2022

he Buller District Council has extended its state of emergency, which was declared last week, as ongoing assessment reveals the full impact of February's dual flood events. Two severe weather events in the first fortnight of February saturated land hardened by record dry temperatures, and resulted in extensive flooding, slips and damage to critical infrastructure. Most concerning is severe roading damage to the State highway network and Buller District Council's local road network, as well as a threat to fresh water supplies in Waimangaroa and Westport/Carters Beach. Contractors are working around the clock to find a solution. "While fewer houses were flooded than in July 2021's event, the February floods have affected our small rural communities hardest," says Buller Mayor Jamie Cleine. "We know at least 70 farms have been damaged, and many are struggling with access issues which affect production." By late last week building inspections had identified 22 houses that sustained flood damage. They placarded four red and 18 yellow. However, this number is expected to rise as more assessments are completed. "We're resilient in the Buller, and we're doing everything we can to ensure the water supply

and opening our roads, but it's a huge task." Recovery from the July 2021 flooding had begun when the latest rain hit. A housing repair programme was well under way and significant work to repair infrastructure was either occurring or due to begin. February 2022 saw the district move into unprecedented territory, with back-to-back Civil Defence emergencies being invoked within a twoweek period. This has pushed the region into an ongoing emergency footing. Early assessments of damage and impact are starting to be realised, with assessment teams working throughout the district. Early forecasting indicates that the scale of damage to infrastructure is unprecedented. Slips have impacted roads throughout the region, water supply issues are being identified as severe and immediate in population centres, stormwater damage is being assessed and current data indicates that this has added to the pressures already felt from the 2021 event. A historic dump site in Reefton has been undermined by the flooding, with emergency work under way to ensure that there is no ongoing negative environmental impact on the Inangahua River. The cost of repairs is expected to be in the millions which will be a significant challenge for a district with a small ratepayer base.

Public asked to help build national flood photo database NIWA is asking people in flood-affected areas to contribute photos to a national database to support understanding of flood hazard and flood risk. The NZ Flood Pics project is part of a fiveyear Endeavour Fund research programme that is examining how flood risk will change over the next century from climate warming, more frequent and extreme weather events, and land-use changes. As well as being used by Niwa and its research partners, the database will provide a free resource about recent floods in New Zealand. It will be searchable by location, date and keyword. Photos taken on a smartphone can be uploaded via Niwa's citizen science app, which geolocates where the photo has been taken. There are also options to input more information about the flood. "We really hope that New Zealanders will help us capture photo evidence of floods across the country. These snapshots will build up our knowledge of where and when flood impacts occur," says Dr Andrew Lorrey, Niwa principal scientist of climate

and environmental applications. "Floods are unfortunately increasing in frequency and severity across Aotearoa – meaning they pose one of the biggest risk areas for society. The photo database we're building will support new strategies to increase resilience – which is more important than ever," he says. Tonkin and Taylor engineering manager and flood risk expert Jon Rix, who pioneered the development of NZ Flood Pics, says efforts to protect people and property from floods in New Zealand have traditionally been hampered by the lack of actual flood information. "Through the simple application of smartphone photography, NZ Flood Pics can provide a meaningful contribution toward reducing flood risk by providing direct evidence of floods. I am really excited by the development of Niwa's citizen science app, as we look to gather more information to support our country's flood management decision-making." The app is free to use and can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play.

River flood monitors damaged THE Inangahua River at The Landing recorded its highest ever flow on record during the storm two weeks ago. The West Coast Regional Council said the high rivers had put a lot of strain on its monitoring instruments, and in this event resulted in the site going offline. Council technicians are now out repairing and strengthening the resilience of measuring sites around Buller. The Inangahua River peaks at The Landing.

A

beginner theatre class held in Reefton on February 29, drawing aspiring actors from Reefton and Westport. It was led by Pat Barr-McLeod, the artistic director for On Stage Productions in Westport. Kay Williams who was instrumental in bringing this class to Reefton,

said: "Reefton people, if they want any training like acting, need to go out of Reefton, so this provided an opportunity for aspiring actors to get more practice and Pat is a director with an inclusive philosophy and is keen to support new actors." Kay, who did improv for over 20 years, and was the stage manager for eight shows at the Company Theatre in

Devonport, is the writer and director of the upcoming Reefton-based play 'The Lamentable Tale of the Still Swindlers'. "I wrote a part in my play for Grace Parker, one of the three kids who attended the class, and think they were all very brave to come along," Williams said. Anyone interested in a youth drama group in Reefton can contact Kay on 022 122 0743.

Dog lovers joint support secret KORU NUTRITION

Philip Gould is an activeretiree who enjoys doing jobs around the house and walking his dog each day. Now retired, Philip and hisdog Benji can often be seen walking the streets around their neighbourhood twice, if not three times per day. “Benji loves to go for walks throughout the day which keeps me active.” After an ankle injury, Philip was unable to walk his dog each day, highlighting to him the value he placed on his mobility. “Not walking my dog was hard emotionally. He’d look at me and wondered why we weren’t able to go out. To him I didn’t look any different but my mobility just wasn’t there.” Once recovered, Philip decided he was going to do what he could to support his joints and mobility into the future. “My son-in-law suggested I try Koru Nutrition’s Koru Joint, which I did.” “I was a little bit skeptical to start with because I thought the different vitamins people talk about don’t really work. But I thought, well, I’ll try

Rare bats found in South Westland

M

ore discoveries of rare pekapeka/longtailed bats have been made on the West Coast through the work of the Government Covid-19 initiative Jobs for Nature (JFN). Since November 2021 audio monitors put out by JFN workers have captured bat sounds at Lake Moeraki, Saltwater Forest, Lake Ianthe, Wanganui catchment, Landsborough, Haast township and Ferguson Creek (Hari Hari). Pekapeka/long-tailed bats are listed as threatened-nationally critical. Last year JFN workers from Franz Josef Wilderness Tours helped discover pekapeka/long-tailed bats near Franz Josef for the first time in decades. Department of Conservation senior ranger biodiversity Tracey Dearlove says since November 2021, 70 monitors were put out in different locations to capture the unique sound signature of the bats. "We put them at locations with good pekapeka/long-tailed bat habitats such as near slow moving

'Exotic' music to play on Coast

The Alpaca Social Club with Cousin Alice play fresh sounds from exotic lands, and will be playing on the West Coast next month. The music has a flavour of Arabic, Celtic, funk, soul and gypsy jazz cultures. The two musicians at its core are pianist and accordionist Craig Denham and bassouki player and guitarist Jon Sanders. Fans describe their live show as "a pyrotechnic display of dazzling virtuosity" and "a quantum leaping musical curiosity". Cousin Alice creates a completely unique sound, gritty, sweet, and heartfelt, delivered with a shot or two of humour. Her voice has been likened by one listener to "a cross between Tom Waits, Peggy Lee and Marianne Faithful." Alpaca Social Club have brought their own unique take to Alice's music on and off for years now performing together. They will be in Reefton on March 13 at the Reefton Club; Hokitika on March 22 at the Old Lodge Theatre; Barrytown on March 23 at the Barrytown Hall, and Westport on March 29, at the Denniston Dog.

in checking the recordings too." Te Runanga o Makaawhio chairman Paul Madgwick has welcomed the news. "We're very excited about the finds of this taonga species. JFN is a win-win as it provides skills training, work, and contributes to conservation."

DOC South Westland operations manager Wayne Costello says there's plenty of good news coming out of JFN for South Westland. "Businesses have told us that their staff are learning huge amounts about native species and conservation through JFN, and that it has brought value to their business, as they share the knowledge they've gained with visitors who come on their tours. "Not only are we getting great conservation work outcomes, but JFN is growing skills, conservation awareness and advocacy. The South Westland JFN programme is also shining a light on the potential for genuine nature-based experiences to be the tourism drawcard of the future. "Another benefit is that those doing the mahi through JFN are loving being out in nature in work which means they can stay and live in our glacier country communities which are really struggling. They're getting work opportunities which provide stress release and increase wellbeing at the same time."

Charlie's challenge n by Rose O'Connor in Westport

Charlie Kearns' final swim for 2021, at an undisclosed local lake.

GM468150

hwarted by 2020 Covid, Westport 11-year-old Charlie Kearns launched into 2021 determined to conquer her latest challenge – 365 swims in 365 days! The challenge involved fully submerging the body in water including the head. Determined Westport youngster Charlie Kearns had already climbed 12 peaks in 12 months in 2019 as an eight-year-old so she knew the ropes when she embarked on her latest challenge of 365 swims in 365 days. "The swimming challenge was more enjoyable because it felt way easier," Charlie said. "One of the mountains took us seven hours and that was horrible!" The first swim of the challenge was in January 2021 in the Buller River by the Westport Domain. The final one was in a local lake on private land. She was, however, joined for the final sojourn by intrepid West Coast Messenger reporter Rose O'Connor. "I'm just disappointed that Charlie refused my offer of skinny dipping at the beach as one of her 365 swims!" Ms O'Connor said. The challenge of a daily swim may sound arduous enough but Charlie also faced some added difficulties – Westport was hit by a major flood last July. "I managed to get a swim in at the pool before it shut at midday on the Saturday. Then we filled the bath and I had to use that for a few days. Mum said it was too yucky to swim in the puddles on the lawn or in the street and she wouldn't add any hot water to the bath either!" And what do Charlie's family and friends think of her challenges? "Dad (Keith Kearns) thinks I'm crazy – just like mum!" (Sarah Prior is an ultra-distance runner). Nine-yearold brother Jack was reluctantly dragged to most swimming venues, where he preferred to explore than get wet. "He was more keen to get involved in the next

challenge once he saw the rewards – new togs, lollies, a certificate and surf sneakers," their mum said. Granny Val Prior fully supported her granddaughter and accompanied her, especially whenever her mother was working. She also made a sign for the last swim of the year. Charlie's mother joined her daughter on many of the swims although several young friends mostly accompanied her to the local pool where they estimate about half of the swims took place. "My friends now know I'm crazy!" she said. Charlie was also supported by her school, with the teacher incorporating a swim into the school camp at Karamea. "Once we arrived late at Quinney's Bush and when we had set up camp it was after 10pm. We had to go and get in, in the dark by headlamp and we could only find a very shallow bit in the river," Ms Prior said. "That was hard!" added Charlie. Ms Prior said that at 10 o'clock one night she was resting on the couch when she panicked and called out to Charlie that she had not done her swim, only to be reassured that she had swum at school during the day. The mother-daughter duo regularly swam at 7.30am at Shingle Beach, Westport, before school. "We tried to incorporate as many different places as possible, including a paddling pool, spa, pools, sea, rivers, lakes, baths, biscuiting in the river, boogey boarding down the Buller and once a friend's pond. We didn't get to a waterfall though," Ms Prior said. "But that didn't bother me at all!" Charlie said. She swam at Lake Rochfort, Tauranga Bay, Carters Beach, Nile River, Waimangaroa River and beach, Hanmer, Orton Bradley Park on Banks Peninsula and Marrs Beach, Westport. "Marrs Beach was really cold and it was the only time I just did not want to get in!" Charlie said. She also mastered jumping off the Buller Bridge. So what challenges does 2022 hold for Charlie? "I am reading a chapter book every week. Mum is going to try too but she is happy if she can read one book a month," Charlie said. The family of four is also going to each shoot 10 basketball hoops every day in 2022. "We are going to have to keep on top of dad and make sure he does it!" Charlie said.

Ask a P R O F E S S I O N A L What is Relationship Property? When you’re young and single, you’re an independent person. You have your own friends, routine, goals, hopes and dreams – and you have your own separate property. You own what you own and you know where you stand. When you enter into a relationship though, things change. Your friends become their friends; you move in together, and you start building a life with another person in it. How much of your separate life you bring into a relationship is different for every couple. But, whether you choose to share it or not, your separate property can easily become relationship property. Relationship property is defined under the

Property (Relationships) Act 1976 in detail. It includes all property acquired by either partner after the relationship began. This definition is broader than you may think and this was recently confirmed in an appeal to the High Court. The case concerned an artist who had been married to her husband for 20 years. During their marriage, the artist painted hundreds of paintings and made an income by selling the paintings and printed copies of them. The paintings are property acquired by the artist during the relationship, so they meet the definition of relationship property in the Act. This means they will usually be split equally on separation.

Interestingly, the High Court also determined that the copyright in the paintings (the ability to control who can use and re-print the images) is relationship property as well. Copyright is a proprietary right and it can be worth a substantial amount of money. If the copyright was created or acquired during the relationship then the value or the right itself will also be split equally on separation. If you’re an artist, writer, musician or entrepreneur you will need to consider whether you want to protect the valuable copyright you are creating. The only certain way to protect your separate property at the start of your relationship with a Contracting Out Agreement.

Why is immunisation important? During our lives, we are exposed to thousands of germs, some of which are potentially harmful to our health. Immunisation is your best protection against some of these serious but preventable diseases. Immunisation on time is the best way that parents can protect their children against serious diseases. With ‘flu’ season approaching, it is also a good time to encourage elderly people, pregnant women, and young adults who are otherwise eligible, to take up a free influenza vaccination. The Flu vaccines should be available at all Medical Centres by mid April. Just how safe are immunisations? The risk of serious side effects from immunisation is very low compared to the risk of

complications or death from vaccine-preventable diseases. Immunisation is the best protection against vaccine-preventable diseases as it not only helps protect the vaccinated person, but also protects their family and our community as they don’t pass on the disease to others. Why immunise on time? To be best-protected, babies, children and adults all need to be vaccinated on time, every time. Young infants are particularly at risk of serious complications from some diseases such as whooping cough, pneumococcal disease and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib disease). Starting immunisation at six weeks begins to provide protection during the most vulnerable periods of childhood. Delaying or missing

immunisations increases the risk of getting a disease and reduces the protection when it’s needed most. Influenza can lead to serious complications, particularly in people with existing medical conditions such as heart or lung conditions. Pregnant women and newborn babies are particularly at risk of severe outcomes from influenza. While it is best to immunise on time, every time, it’s never too late to start, or catch up. All of the medical centres and rural clinics across the West Coast have vaccines available. Please phone your medical centre for information on childhood or flu vaccination clinics, or check out our website www.westcoastpho.org.nz.

Ask a P R O F E S S I O N A L In the current business environment, how do I set the price of the goods I sell? Pricing is a question that often comes up and the answer is always that it depends on the market. A starting point is knowing the cost of the goods including and freight or handling costs to get it to you. Currently New Zealand is running at relatively high inflation, at 5.9% for the year ended December 2021. This means the price of the goods you are selling may be changing at a fast rate, particularly for building supplies, so it is important to keep a handle on these increases.

Due to the increasing costs, if you offer quotes to your customers make sure there is a short timeframe for acceptance of the quote and that you require a deposit to lock in that price, so you don’t get caught out by any price increases by your suppliers. Once you are aware of your costs, you can then apply a margin or markup which needs to be sufficient to cover your overhead and labour costs as well as a profit element. I would take into

account that the minimum wage is increasing by $1.20 from the 1st of April and it is likely that the Reserve Bank will increase interest rates, to combat the inflation, which increases the interest costs for borrowing, now rather than pricing now and again in 6 weeks’ time. Finally, you can also look at psychological pricing like using figures that end in a 5, 7 or 9, such as $9.95. It is believed that consumers in their mind round this down to $9 rather than up to $10.

NFT’s Chances are you’ve heard of NFT’s in the media, and if you haven’t, you’re likely to as the technology and its popularity continues to grow, and sometimes not for the right reasons! What are NFT’s? First up, NFT stands for Non-fungible token…. Ok that doesn’t make it any clearer. So, Non-fungible more or less means that it’s unique and can’t be replaced with something else, a one-of-a-kind. What makes NFT’s so popular at the moment? NFT’s can be any form of digital file as well as represent real-world items like artwork to real-

estate. They are digital representations of assets and have been likened to digital passports because each token contains a unique, non-transferable identity to distinguish it from other tokens. However, the current popularity of NFT’s is in art. NFT’s can’t prevent digital files being copied, though NFTs are designed to give you something that can’t be copied: ownership of the asset. However, artist ‘s can still retain the copyright and reproduction rights. To put it in terms of physical art collecting: anyone can buy a Picasso print. But only one person can own the original. For artist’s NFTs have a feature that can pay the artist a percentage or royalty every time the NFT

is sold or changes hands, ensuring artists continue to benefit as their art becomes increasingly popular. NFTs are unique due to their verified ownership that cannot be replicated or manipulated. When an item is limited, it becomes more valuable. The current popularity of NFT’s lie in the belief that they will later be more valuable to someone else. So, people are collecting art NFTs because they think they will be valuable in the future. The NFT market is speculative, and with that comes volatility. If you’re interested in NFT’s, do your research and understand the implications and go in eyes wide open.

Keep NZ Beautiful reveals winners K

eep New Zealand Beautiful have announced the winners of their Beautiful Awards 2021, including New Zealand's most beautiful towns and most beautiful cities. Run annually since 1972 the Beautiful Awards are New Zealand's longestrunning sustainability awards and provide a benchmark for environmental excellence in New Zealand. They inspire, recognise and acknowledge those individuals, schools, community groups, towns and cities working passionately across the country to Keep New Zealand Beautiful. Keep New Zealand Beautiful CEO Heather Saunderson says: "We've been impressed with the quality of submissions to the Beautiful Awards, and the efforts and passion behind them. "It's been a tough year for community groups, councils and individuals alike, but their collective commitments to the environment haven't wavered – people are doing so much with limited resources, to keep their communities beautiful," said Ms Saunderson. "Through the Beautiful Awards we're pleased to be able to celebrate the efforts made by community groups, schools councils and individuals who are striving to improve New Zealand's environment and thereby the quality of life in our rural communities, urban towns and cities." Towns and Cities Awards Judged by Ms Saunderson and Business Desk's head of lifestyle and features Jacqui Loates-Haver this category of the Beautiful Awards recognises and celebrates beautiful towns, cities and regions across New Zealand and acknowledges the positive sustainability and climate change actions that have been taken

by councils and communities over the last 12 months, to protect and enhance their local environments. These prestigious awards review initiatives such as litter prevention, waste minimisation, community beautification and recycling projects, as wells as sustainable tourism initiatives. Whilst all of the finalists demonstrated significant achievements in the sustainability space, the winners of the Towns and Cities Awards illustrated an exceptionally strong community spirit and have created an environment that other towns and cities would aspire to. Each award is divided into urban area populations, which are statistically defined and are classified by the size of their resident population.  Most Beautiful Small Town (defined as a small urban area 1000 to 9999 residents) The finalists for the Most Beautiful Small Town Award were: Foxton Kaitaia The winner of this award is Kaitaia. Key highlights: The Kaitaia community and council worked together to procure $7 million in funding towards environmental restoration initiatives. The community partnered with an enthusiastic council to manage the projects themselves, and this has resulted in a waterfall effect across the entire region. Local contractors have received training to bid on the council projects, ensuring the funding and jobs stay in the community.  Most Beautiful Large Town (defined as a medium urban area 10,000 to 29,999 residents) The finalists for the Most Beautiful Large Town Award were: Taupo Whakatane The winner of this award is Taupo.

Key highlights: The Taupo community is working with businesses to conduct waste audits and have achieved a 90% diversion from landfill with this programme. They have also created a new natural burial zone which provides people in the Taupo District a greater choice in how they wish their remains to be returned to the earth, whilst also reducing environmental pollutions that is created by the embalming process and/ or cremation.  Most Beautiful Small City (defined as a large urban area 30,000 to 99,999 residents) The finalists for the Most Beautiful Large Town Award were: Hastings Whanganui The winner of this award is Hastings. Key highlights: Hastings, 2020's Supreme Towns and Cities Award winner, has built on their waste and litter prevention campaign which features two mascots – Luke the Litter Legend and Colin the Cheeky Chucker, creating a fun and engaging way for children to learn about litter. Hastings has also established an eco-committee, initiated a New Zealand-first analysis into the trees in their parks and reserves and has a continued focus on sustainable tourism and community beautification.  Most Beautiful Large City (defined as a major urban area of 100,000 or more residents) The finalists for Most Beautiful Large City Award were: Wellington Dunedin The winner for this award is Wellington. Key highlights: Wellington has gained global recognition and $US1 million in prizemoney as one of 15 cities worldwide to win the Bloomberg Mayors Challenge. Wellington's winning project, a Digital Twin, is a virtual representation of the systems and things that make up the city, a 3D model brought to life through real time data from sensors and processes to help understand, communicate and make better decisions on how Wellington works, grows and in monitoring their zero carbon capital policy. Digital Twin was designedto be open source so that other councils, in New Zealand and globally, can utilise this technology as well. Supreme Towns and Cities Award The Supreme Towns and Cities Award winner is chosen from across all the Towns and Cities and is the judges' top pick from an already-outstanding set of finalists. "This is always a very hard award to judge and this year was no exception," said Ms Saunderson. "The Towns and Cities submissions were of an extremely high standard, and the virtual tours provided great insight into the amazing environmental initiatives that have taken place." The winner for this award is Whakatane. Key highlights: Biodiversity is a huge focal point for those in Whakatane. The community underwent a tree audit and created tree policies so that people have a better understanding of the value of trees and how their lifespan impacts us. They have also closed the gaps in understanding between rural areas and the township, bringing a tighter cohesion to environmental efforts. The community have also created a Seed Library, and are getting local children and youth involved in plantings – around 4800 per year. Whakatane will receive, as part of the Resene

awards sponsorship, a mural painted in their town by a local artist up to the value of $10,000. Individual Awards The Young Legend Awards honour three outstanding volunteers who are aged under 18 years. These exceptional individuals will have demonstrated remarkable leadership and outreach in their community through work in one or more of the following areas; litter prevention, waste reduction, recycling promotion, community beautification. The Young Legend recipients are: Nora Quigley Jemima Christie Sophie Weenink The Tidy Kiwi Award recognises and rewards individuals aged over 18 years who have distinguished themselves as truly extraordinary and who serve as an inspiration to us all.
