Why would iwi be putting money in?
I don't see why they would be required to put a dime into this.

We've been making a few mooring lately, gruntier then the usual temp ones we do many of this time of the year. Just found out many are going into bays with the weed to circumvent the no anchoring rules. Reading between the lines I’m guessing they are for the gated communities inside that area . Interesting that cause I’m of the understanding there’s no more new moorings to be had in the BOI ? But then I guess if you know some people and have plenty of folding anything is possible . Mostly into bays but there are also bays up in the Bay. Yeap, poor people don't tend to have craft that need to be moored.
Also a fair few FADs, fish aggregation devices, are being sneaked in. Mostly by big fish hunters. FADs usually have a raft like arrangement on the surface, these ones are sub surface i.e the top is down 5-10m. That keeps them out of site as you can't just throw FADs out there. Also being hidden only those in the know can fish on them. All rather dodgy but if some septic is going to pay you 10K for a days fishing you gotta put them on some decent targets.

They didn't cede sovereignty and all, so I assumed they would be funding key projects in their area? No? Or do they expect the Crown they didn't cede to to cover it all for them? |

It's not exactly 'for them' though is it... Seems like a waste of money to me, but then I thought the m-bovis thing was a waste as well and they appear to have got on top of that. |

I see the seaweed brush as a cool project that will suck up huge sums of money and achieve sweet fuck all except deprive real worthy projects of the funds they desperately need.

Its good for optics though. |

They own the sea and everything in it. They never ceded sovereignty to us, and we have no rights to it. All demonstrated by Ngati Kahu this weekend, not allowing a fishing comp because Doubtless Bay and all the fish in it are theirs. The extension of the logic that they have exclusive rights and ownership of the sea is that they need to look after it. When there is a problem, they shouldn't be coming to the group whom they didn't cede sovereignty to so we can pay to fix what is theirs... Kind of like saying my car broke down, can you get it fixed for me? |

Worst tree disease in the world found in Te Awamutu. Govt says it got their by a yacht's anchor. Anchoring ban announced across all of the Waikato region. The fatal and fast spreading Dutch elm disease has been discovered on a private property in Te Awamutu, Waikato. Dutch elm disease is considered to be one of the most devastating tree diseases in the world. Waipā District Council arborist planner James Richardson said the area has some of the best elms in the country, and it was very concerning to find it in the district. "We're doing absolutely everything we can to find affected trees and limit the spread of the disease," he said. However, it was a particularly aggressive tree disease and an infected elm tree could die in as little as three weeks. "It's done a lot of damage throughout the world," Richardson said. Tests last week confirmed a tree on the Te Awamutu property had the fungal disease. Infected trees must be removed to prevent the disease spreading further. www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/510896/fatal-dutch-elm-disease-found-on-waikato-property |

Apparently climate change is somewhat responsible.
How many elm trees does NZ have? Is it actually much of an issue? Do we have any industries reliant on elm trees?

Councils have spent a fortune planting Elm trees so they clog up waste water drains,now busy removing them. AK council had same issue a few yrs ago. |

Did anyone stop at the weekend Classics at the NIWA shed. Interesting talk on seaweed/kelp. Forget about kina being the number 1 problem,its what we are doing on land with letting all the silt/waste run in to estuaries. The seaweed needs clean cool water,under 20c .Kina have moved inshore more to eat shoots,out deep with cooler waters weed growing fine with larger fish keeping kina at bay,no weed inshore there is no protection for fry to grow and are targeted by preditors,so we maybe the cause rather the kina or overfishing.

Well thats where Legasea get there info from is NIWA but somehow twist it in translation to suit their agenda and yes Legasea does have an Agenda unless your a longlining company,but then Legasea fails to mention that company also runs contract trawlers/Sieners vessels to supply domestic market.And owned by a major supermarket giant.
