In the aftermath of the 22 February 2011 earthquake, the Natural Hazards Research Platform (NHRP) initiated a series of Short Term Recovery Projects (STRP) aimed at facilitating and supporting the recovery of Christchurch from the earthquake impacts. This report presents the outcomes of STRP 6: Impacts of Liquefaction on Pipe Networks, which focused on the impacts of liquefaction on the potable water and wastewater systems of Christchurch. The project was a collaborative effort of NHRP researchers with expertise in liquefaction, CCC personnel managing and designing the systems and a geotechnical practitioner with experience/expertise in Christchurch soils and seismic geotechnics.
The Project Team were: Simon Wallace (TIA),
David Simmons (Lincoln University),
Susanne Becken (Lincoln University)The State of the Tourism Sector report is published annually.The Tourism Industry Association of New Zealand’s (TIA) annual State of the Sector 2011 has been
prepared in partnership with Lincoln University. The objective of this is to understand better how
the tourism sector sees its future and what challenges and opportunities lie ahead in both the short
and longer term. State of Sector 2011, alongside the ongoing series of TIA Insights and other
consultations that TIA is undertaking in its research work programme, is aimed at informing
participants at the Tourism Summit taking place in Wellington on 13 July 2011. This information is a
key driver in assisting with the development of the 2011 Tourism Industry Election Manifesto. State
of the Sector 2011 also ultimately provides a current view of the tourism sector for those within the
industry and for external stakeholders who have an interest in tourism in New Zealand.
