How did two weed control operations on public conservation land go so wrong? David Williams reports
The effects of the herbicide spraying becomes obvious just past the old, corrugated-iron musterers’ hut, with its tack shed and veranda.
Scattered among grasses at the southern edge of Lake Emma in Canterbury’s Hakatere Conservation Park lie dead exotic Scotch broom plants, while, nearby, the tougher sweet brier is re-sprouting.
But as Canterbury Regional Council ecologist Philip Grove and his colleague Mike Marr, a resource management investigator, pick their way along the 500-metre-long sprayed area, there’s evidence of what Grove calls “non-target spray damage” to native shrubs, matagouri and Coprosma propinqua.

A threat to nationally endangered birds in the Waitaki Valley forced the Department of Conservation (Doc) to step in last week.
Doc undertook control work to remove southern black-backed gull colonies from the Waitaki River, east of Kurow, as the gulls were preying on black-fronted tern and wrybill colonies.

Ritchie said the birds going out to sea for their feed were largely “coming back empty”.

The San Aotea II, pictured leaving Timaru s port in early June, berthed back in Timaru in August 2020.
A rescue and a retrieval featured prominently in June’s news coverage out of South Canterbury, writes Doug Sail in the sixth instalment of our series looking back on the year that was.
Sanford deep-water fleet manager Darryn Shaw said the trip to the South Georgia Islands was necessary because of the impact of Covid-19, which had made it difficult to get people out of the Falkland Islands.
‘‘Normally we would bring our people back by air, via South America, but that is not possible at this time with borders closed into that region,’’ Shaw said. ....
