Good afternoon Mr Werry,

 

I refer to your information request regarding the Ōtuataua Stonefields
Historic Reserve.

 

There is currently no grazing licence on Ōtuataua Stonefields Historic
Reserve. If grazing is proposed, it will require livestock to be excluded
from freshwater sources and managed appropriately to preserve
archaeological remains.

 

Thank you for your inquiry.

 

Ngā mihi | Kind regards,

Subject: Official Information request - Excluding livestock from
freshwater and archaeological remains at Ōtuataua Stonefields Historic
Reserve

 

 

Dear Auckland Council,

 

Can you please advise if the grazing contract and/or internal farm
management policies for Ōtuataua Stonefields Historic Reserve require
livestock to be excluded from freshwater sources and archaeological
remains?

 

If they do not, can you confirm whether this is normal practice?

 

In terms of freshwater I am particularly interested in the following
locations:

* Lake at 36°58'55.3"S 174°45'00.2"E near the northwesternmost gate from
Watercare Coastal Walkway

* Freshwater spring at 36°58'51.2"S 174°45'12.7"E where the Ihumātao
Quarry Rd paper road meets the Watercare Coastal Walkway

* Freshwater spring at 36° 58' 43.752'' S 174° 45' 26.2548'' E on the
northern boundary of the reserve where it almost meets the Watercare
Coastal Walkway

 

Thank you for your assistance.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Chris Werry
